    my girlfriend rang me last nite to say he friends have asked ous to go to the cinema, and did i wanna go?
    i had no money and told her i had no money to do anything, she then said ok so, well i mire go with them anyway,

    i was a bit taken back by that, the fact she didnt offer to buy me a ticket or even gives a lend,

    cuz many a times when she was in that situation i would not let her worry about money etc,

    am i wrong to be making an issuse out of it, like i havent said it to her but im gonna

    did she have enough money to offer to buy you a ticket?

    She probably knew you were short and wanted to go with them on her own but didnt want to say that to you.
    In that case she's made it worse because well look at how she's made you feel anyway.

    She's silly in my opinion.

    i dont no if she had the money or not, like its not that i would expect her to pay for me, i no she doesnt have much money,

    it just im left thinking all the times i do put my hand in the pocket, im starting to think she wudnt have done for me,


    like if we were to orde food, and she had no money, i would turn to her and say well im ordering something anyways,

    it felt like a slap in the face for me,, or maybe a reality check???

    i wanna bring it up with her but how do o i ? what way do i say it

    its quite possible that she may never have thought about it and you're over reacting.

    i wouldn't think anything of it IMO

    She wanted a girlie night type thing. No big deal.

    Ask her today and report back.

    Maybe she just didn't think about offering? It's hardly the end of the world.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,886 ✭✭✭WHIP IT!


    Jesus Man... let the little things go... otherwise it's stress and an early grave for ya man!

    It's no big deal, it's not any kidna deal in fact... don't worry about it...

    Maybe when you said "I have no money" she just heard "Its cool, I don't want to go"

    Harmless in my opinion

    Sometimes when people say they've no money they just mean they're not really interested in going out... i mean the cinema isn't that expensive and you can usually find a tenner lying around somewhere if you really want to. I expect she just thought you weren't that pushed about going. I'd say just let it go this time, to avoid creating an argument over nothing. If it keeps happening, maybe then raise it with her but really if this is the only thing you have to be worrying about in your relationship, you're a lucky guy.

    Did you ask her if she could lend you the money? Didn't think so.....

    1. She may not have wanted you to go (girls night out!) but was just being polite by asking you.

    2. She may have wanted you to go but presumed you didn't want to go when you said you "had no money" and she didn't want to push it anymore in case she was forcing you!

    Don't stress about it. As long as she is not tight with her money in every way and taking you for a total mug on a day to day basis I'd let this one go and next time, ask her can she loan you enough to go with her instead of feeling all sorry for yourself when you didn't speak up in the first place!! I truly don't think she realises she's hurt your feelings.
