but thats the thing, i am saving.. this is.. lose cash i don't particually need and don't need to save.....:rolleyes: I want to treat her. .thats the point but you lot seem to be so eager to tell me i am wrong
And you haven't participated in flaming people before?
We just talked about this on MSN
You asked a question and as you air your dirty laundry on here anyway people are giving friendly advice. We are not criticising the actions you make.
If you didn't want the thread to turn out like this then a) don't post it; or b) don't air your laundry on a public message board.
Hellfire, you are not wrong to treat her. Infact, I'm going to annoy fiend_85 (not a difficult task by any means) by saying YES, spend, spend, spend!
I asked for present IDEAS not the fact if im spending to much:rolleyes: thats for me to decide.. not you people
Thanks,
Relevant? I don't think so.
Hellfire, you can never save too much cash, and really, there's treating, and there's spoiling.
you'd make such a fantastic teacher
simple answer - buy what she likes. you'll get more brownie points if you get something that sums her up perfectly than if you spend 10 times the amount on general shite. we don't know her. therefore don't listen to us.
except me of course. listen to me.
and spending £20 on someone is spoiling?
Why thank you
haha.. *thinks* she likes socks, hoodies.. jewlary, roses, red things and me
see now.. thinking of that i thought of something but her parents may not like;)
This isn't a one off though is it? You said you wanted to get here a present every time you go see her, and you've already spent a lot on christmas and birthday. And personally, spending £20 on someone at your age is a lot of money. Christ, spending £20 on someone at my age is a lot. It's not a general bracket, it's for a really special present.
A woman with good taste. Mostly.
not really but you could put £20 to better use. you don't need to spend money to show you love someone
:yes:
You got it in one :thumb:
Now I am going to make my dinner
Such as?
ahh but when college gets in full swing i'll only be going up every halfterm/end of term so it'll be one every 2months ish:(
I bow to you, enjoy your dinner
SG, grow up a bit and look at the financial state of the country before asking what other purposes £20 could go to.
yeah.. thats the country... not me:) my financial state is good
So? Christ almighty, £20 every two months? That's £120 a year, not including travel and additional taking her out for lunch or cinema.
charity for one
and.. im gonna be earning more than that plus with my EMA.. so why not spend it.. i don't personly give a shit about it,
you could feed a large family for three years on that
Ah. Fiend_85, you have a point here. Only a rich mogul could afford to spend a fortune on presents. The best things in life are free. Mostly.
You're a lucky boy then. but it won't last, not unless you stay REALLY lucky. I'm not daft with money, and it's not like I don't have any savings, but personally I'm streched to the limit. I'd hate for you to resent your g/f because you regret spending so much on her.
Take the advice or leave it buddy. You'd be daft to carry on the way you are though.
For once you talk sense
I left college before that EMA nonsense came in. Do you enjoy being bribed to stay in education? If you're going to uni, better save the money - you sure as hell are gonna need it!
Thank you.
