But if she would only give me the time of day when it suited her, then I was just being used and it was not worth it.
which sounded to me like he was more upset that she didn't care enough about the relationship to consider his schedule than that he was being inconvenienced.

but if it's just a scheduling problem, then the answer is simple: just forget about it.

They have a way of doing that. The girl (you all know which one) I bought that expensive dinner for was really good about making me think she'd reciprocate in terms of paying for things, but always managed to avoid it. Some chicks put-on a front of generosity just so that they don't look like greedy bitches, but really they're just gambling that you'll insist on paying anyway.

It's funny, I emailed her today about some stuff of mine she still has.. I lent her a cashmere sweater and a book and i wanted them back before she leaves the country for 2 months. The reply i got was "i'm actually leaving tonight, but dont worry, i'll get them to you when i get back and i haven't forgotten about the dinner i owe you either."

Ya right. Fkin ***** heh. I didn't even reply.

hmm... from your play by play overanalyzying every move and this thread going on for 18 pages... you sure fooled me.

which implied that your objection was only that it was too much of a "hassle" to go out on any other than weekend nights. this sounded like a "scheduling" problem, and not the problem i thought it was.

btw, if she has a boyfriend, then she has no choice but to set aside friday and saturday nights to be with him. you should expect this situation to continue until she's ready to dump him. it may take more than a few dates before she can make this decision.

your friend should be able to help you find out her dating status. broach the subject tactfully, however, since, as many have already pointed out, it will get back to her.

i'm just curious: are you jewish?

Whether to call her or not is still stewing in my brain...

Yes, I'm Jewish, why?
