Materialistic Women

wow. everytime me and my friend goes out it's a crap

shoot. really. my mother taught me to bring enough to

pay for myself in case things dont work out. i stick

by that. lol.. but let's say we talk about going out

to dinner and a movie. we never know who's doing what.

and i'll say ok i've got dinner and he'll take the

movie or vice versa. there's no debate or anything.

it's dutch. there are times i say 'my treat' and i do

mean that from beginning to end. and there are times

when that bill comes, i say 'how much is the tip' and

i'm ready to cover it and he'll say 'i got it'.. i

suppose it's about who you're with nowadays. i dont

assume he's paying for everything and he doesn't

assume i'm paying for everything because someone will

end up not seeing a movie or having a meal.. (crackin

up)

I dont complain about financial woes to anyone. maybe

it's a pride thing. i also dont expect that prince to

come and 'save the day' either. i got myself into it,

i'll get myself out (and i'm always hesitant about

accepting help if offered (RARE to NEVER)). 

I think you've described the Cinderella (Princess)

complex. Whomever raised them, instilled and burned

into their brains that the only way they would be

provided for is 2 ways- cash or credit...Men arent

good for anything else as far as they are concerned. 

They will wait for some fool to spend all of his hard

earned $ on them. And dont let him lose his job or the

money goes low. It's a wrap. 

 I remember a friend said to me 'my mother raised me as

a princess and i expect to be treated like one' and

yet she wonders why she can't get a good man in her

life. what kind of nonsense is that?  and oh yes,

she's lazy as hell. what man wants a lazy woman?  I

started to call her Miss Bon Bon.
