And let's be fair to the thread as a whole...there are situations where having a boyfriend is expensive! Some girls spend a lot of money on their guys! So maybe it's just that relationships are expensive, i.e. no free lunch either way!
Being 'fair' to this thread? I've yet to hear what it is that girls spend their money on their boyfriends for? Other than a token gift, such as a Canucks hat for your birthday or some sort of gift card for Tim's I've never seen a girlfriend of mine actually take the time to think out a thoughtful gift for her man, other than my buddies' girlfriend who dropped a few hundred for him on Xmas....then again he blew a couple of grand on her over the holidays, so again the balance is way off.
I can count the gifts I've received from girlfriends over the years, and how generally 'male oriented' they were....meaning they had very little meaning relating to her knowing what I liked, or what I was into other than the a-typical guy thing. Easy to buy a sports related gift, or a gift card for a leading coffee shop...not a huge monetary or emotional value placed into the shopping, which I always found strange as to how much women usually love shopping for things that they themselves enjoy, but when it comes to buying for their guys, girls and most women have no freaking idea....hell look at father's day gifts. Another tie? Really? Also, the lack of thoughtfulness put into the gifts are laughable...so far in my experience and I've been through it all....mnarriage too.....women spend alot as well on their men? As compared to what?
Sorry, not attacking you personally, but I read your post and thought...really? Not what I've seen and experienced so far in my life...hell, my ex-wife once bought me a shirt, and a pack of socks and thought that I ought to have dropped to me knees and worshipped her and her generosity. A whole $20 on a tshirt and a $11.99 bag of socks. That was for my birthday. I really had to bridle my enthusiasm...not. And of course a $20 Tim's card. Over the top...for hers I dropped $500 on a spa package for her. And then she never used it and gave it to her friend to use. GAVE it to her friend...$500 that was paid to a spa for her to use, not to give away to her friend. WTF? Afterwards the divorce was the best $$ I ever spent.
Yep...I'm bitter. Pooning for me is cheaper, emotionally too. I really couldn;t deal with a broken heart again...not worth it. I'm so much happier being single, seeing those lovely ladies of pleasure, and buying my own socks.
