My girl friend is offended when I won't let her pay some times. She convinces me that she should at LEAST pay half of it. She says it like this: "If I payed the entire bill, you would feel awkward, wouldn't you? Now that's how I feel."


She's the best. Not because she pays for stuff, but because she cares enough to want to pay for things.

I didn't mean to thread jack or anything. But for an inquiry, I'll gladly give a reply.

I was thinking about it for a long time now, I've put in over 3 months worth of work into it all. The 14th is my birthday and so going out wouldn't seem unusual, nor would dressing up nicely. In November I suggested we go to the Missouri Botanical Garden for my birthday. She keeps asking what else I want to do on that day and I make plans with her to go out to eat and then see a movie. She doesn't know that all those plans except for the garden is fake. I've got a reservation at The Melting Pot for lunch and a cabin rented at Klondike State Park. The cabin is were we biked to from our home town for our 2 year anniversary. But I'll propose at the gardens in a special place to us, and then continually surprise her with the "altered" events of the day.

It should be fun!

Edit. I thought I'd keep it thread relevant. The answer is NO. I'm not letting her pay for ANY of this day. And she has no say in the matter.

Sounds awesome!

I took a date to the Melting Pot 2 weeks ago... I love that place.

[renegade28x]

AWWWWW.... i totally just got teary eyed.

Although I am not going to pay for 1/2 my ring, at the rate i'm going I'm probably going to have to go and use eric's card to buy it for myself. lol

Renegade.... I would definitely talk to her about it. I'm assuming she know's your unemployed and if so she must realize that its difficult for you to take her out all the time. If she doesn't pick up on you joking about her paying I would probably do a couple of really cheap/free dates and then kind of be like "as you can tell by our last few dates money is tight..."
Good luck

[renegade28x]

aight thanks rusty :] glad to get a girls advice lol

[deevergote]

Yeah, if money matters to her that much that she decides to stop dating you because you can't afford to keep paying to take her places... then she's not the girl for you anyway.

[nho93accord]

half and half for me. sometimes she pays for me, surprises me. I LIKE IT cuz i never had a gf that done that before
