Third Wheel On Our Big Date

[VincenzoG91]

It's all good. (another exaggeration)

[Nimrod44]

Do you like to be used and all this drama of a younger woman such as this? Sounds like it to me.

[phys251]

Dump her. Now. And when she screams at you and possibly threatens you, use her response to remind yourself that you definitely did the right thing.

[VincenzoG91]

Are you on drugs? You think that I should break up with my girlfriend of the last seven years over $200 and a canceled date? It's not like she stole the money, I willingly spent it and then our plans didn't work out. And then she apologized the next day.

Nimrod44, you want drama, go talk to phys251.

WTF, man. You posted here, seeking advice, and now this?

[Junket]

I guess that she just didn't see this date as that big a deal after all, even though I spent all that money on her costume.

Yeah, that's because she didn't pay for it.

You gotta stop enabling this chick, she's such a parasite.

I apologize. I was already in a bad mood when I read your post, and it made you the second person in less than an hour to trivialize and dismiss my serious long-term relationship.

I posted that response shortly after talking to my best friend on the phone. He was going on and on about how he keeps asking this shy woman out and she keeps avoiding giving a straight answer. Then he said that our situations are pretty similar. I had to stop him right there and point out, no, our situations are completely different. You're talking about somebody you haven't even got out with once, and I'm talking about the woman I've been dating for seven years, and living with for half that time. That is a gigantic difference, and his inability to tell the difference was beyond annoying. It was absurd, but I had to guide him to the likely conclusion that Shy Woman is probably too shy to say no, even though that's what she is thinking.

[VincenzoG91]

Yeah, maybe she should drop out of college to get two full-time jobs and still not make as much money as me. Or maybe not.

[girl68]

You do seem to tote on her an aweful lot more than necessary.

[VincenzoG91]

I think that I earn roughly ten times as much money as she does, with her current part-time work schedule and full-time class schedule. I wouldn't be comfortable with her trying to pay her own way for everything.

[girl68]

I said a lot more than necessary.

My fiance makes way, way, way more than me and even I don't get half of what she does. And we're quite happy. As I said more than necessary.

[misombra]

heaven forbid this happen, but i wonder what her reaction would be if you fell on hard times and got laid off or didn't make as much money as you do now.

that girl would have to go find herself another sugar daddy.

[girl68]

I'm inclined to agree ^.

Why don't you cut back significatly on the spoilage and see if the relationship stresses. It's funny her and I seem to be in a similar situation both in school both with sucessful men who makes loads more than we do. I have already committed to him even if hard times fell upon us. And here's the kicker: if he even so ATTEMPTED to WASTE, nearly $200 bucks on make and what a stupid costume for me I'd flip, I'd refuse and suggest a more wallet friendly approach. God, how to waste his money! But yours seems more than eager to have you indulge in her.

[Petit Papillon]

I'd wish to spend 100 $ for make up in a YEAR. I will spend it, MAYBE, once I will earn enough ... But I would never ever asked my bf to buy me this. It's really unnecessary... Unless she's ****ing ugly

And this response tells me you do like drama. She's a younger gold digger and you have issues with that and will go back and forth. She's hot right? She makes you look good, right?

Don't use the excuse that you had an argument with a friend as a way to take your anger out on me or anyone else. That's immature. You told us your story and wanted opinions. We gave them to you. Sometimes the truth hurts. Maybe we touched a nerve?
