    Ye well I was a total fool I should have got rid of him first but naivety and a bit of lust thrown in made me a right tool .........

    Why even bother with the expense of a towel? Hands cost nothing and are just as easily washed.

    Not everyone would Bee into rounds, especially if they are buzzing from group to group. You can't Bee picking when to be a delicate flower in need of pollination and when to be the empowered hive queen.
    If he was constantly asking to go havlos then behaps he was looking for an equal relationship and not just someone to spend his hmoney on. You were right to let him fly away as it sounds like you weren't suited anyway

    Some people are into rounds until it's their turn.

    He wasn't constantly asking to go halves, he was alternating between that and "forgetting" his wallet. I bet he never reimbursed the op the next day when he was reunited with his wallet ;)

    Me too. A friend of mine was completely whipped by his girlfriend. Not just paying for everything but picking her up in the morning and taking her to work and collecting her again in the evening. He spent a fortune on her at Christmas and didn't even get a card. LOL. Eventually he woke up and got rid of her.

    I would love to be a fly on the wall if two stingy people went out on a date together and they both "forgot" their wallets. Would they miraculously find some money or would they spend the rest of the date washing up in the kitchen? :pac:

    What are some of the most stingy people you know & what have they done

    I know of one fella who is married and whenever he uses the car he only puts in enough fuel for himself will regularly leave d wife with a empty tank or if he gets into it and she has put fuel in he will drive around till the fuel light comes on then return s to her for her to put fuel in d next day



    I used to go out with a fella when I was 21 he used to take me out to dinner every couple of weeks and when it was time to pay he would pat his pocket s and say oh Jesus I left my wallet at home
    Or oh god I never got paid this week can we pay for ourselves me as a naive stupid young one agreed

    We got to Christmas eve he called to my parents house I gave him his present I naive again thought he must have left my present in the car he then proceed ed to break up with me AFTER He got THE PRESENT of course I bought him something really nice I was a student and he was full time working in a bank !!!!

    12 years later (last year )
    I was sitting in a cafe having lunch saw him with a girl they ate then got up to pay and low and behold the stinge bag let the woman pay

    What a prick I realised that a few years after we broke up but at the time I was a total fool

    too tight to use punctuation?
