When Do You Cross That Line?

Last night I went out with a couple of the boys, I've missed them, I don't know why I haven't had the time to catch up for a drink over the last couple of months.

Back on the path of tradition, we headed off to Beach Road, Hotel, I broke my 4 day vodka free agreement with self. This place used to be pumping on a Wednesday night, hardly anyone there, no eye candy, the benefit, the opportunity to have a great chit chat with GD and Jez'... Conversation steered toward Jez' ahh, love/sex life, you may remember him from this post, my non-existent love life and GD, that's were GD was gittin' a bit suggestive, gotta love dirty talk whispered in my ear... But my issue...

Prostitution? I've been asked out a few times by GD over the last couple of years, I do enjoy his company, and he's fun, young and cute. When I say young, I went to his 20th birthday party last year; he is the cousin of Jez' the hot cheating body builder Jez' and I do exchange those looks and say he's young and let so much pass.

Back to the question on deck. that line, he works for audi spare parts and my car is falling to bits, he has offered numerous discounts if I go out with him.

If I really liked him, that question wouldn't be on my mind, right?

Hmm, sounds like a relationship of convenience - the question is: "If he changed jobs and worked for Ford in their spare parts area - would you sell the Audi and buy a Ford?"

Doll Face said...

Thanks for the confirmation Indy

i - I'm happy i'm not the only one that has those thoughts...

nick - I'm all for a relationship of conveience, arn't they all???

Sell my Audi for a Ford! You must be crazy! Well.. Only for a Ford AC Cobra, original not replica ;-) Then i would really be needing discounts in spare parts :-P

Discounts IF you go out with him?

I'd immediately lose respect for him as a person. I don't care how cute he is!.

MissE said...

I'm with chickybabe. The fact that he's offering is a bit problematic for me.

If he was offering a discount because you're a cool chick, then that's him being nice. Offering a discount if you'll go out with him ... dodgy.

And if you liked him ... yeah, you wouldn't be thinking about it like that.

My $0.02: pay retail.

I don't get it: why doesn't he give you the discount anyway? He doesn't give discounts to friends? Fahgeddaboudid...

Doll Face said...

That's it cBabe.. The 'offer' has been on the table for a while and obviously I havent taken him up on it.

Thanks cLarue...

Cibby - I know! I look after MY friends! Gimme the discount anyway.

M said...

not worth the emotional entanglement and the post-date and post-car part rant of "you only went out with me for a discount". sooo not worth it!

I am with ChickyBabe on this one. The guy is a slothball. You deserve a gentleman. What is the difference? A gentleman loves women and is always accomodating with friends when he can. He may have ulteriore motives but is willing to take the chance that he may do something without a "return" favor.

I agree many relationships are about convenience but this is really lowball and shows little interest. Strangely enough I just thought about the story of the man who paid 11 cows (a great portion of his net worth) for his wife when the going rate was 3...

Well I didn't want to sugar coat it ~grin~

Doll Face said...

M - I always know what i'm getting myself into, wouldnt be an issue. Still not interested.

David - there, you pointed out the distinct difference. thanks

Indy - please don't ever sugar coat anything :-)
