I think we strayed from the topic, but in a good way, I was gonna ask you guys if the following was "out of line": I have had one day off in the last month and one of my female friends called to ask if I was going to give her some of my overtime money to buy clothes, I told her that I could dress her up in a lot of finery, but that would not cover the fact that she is apparently poor white trash. She then asked for money to get cable and I told her to get lost.


I guess without the tone of her voice I can't tell if she was being sarcastic or literal.
If she was serious,,,
I would have told her to get lost too. I would assume she knows you work hard and put in many hours for your money. It seems very inappropriate for her to ask you that.. You deserve to be treated with more respect in my opinion.. Is she looking for a sugar daddy or what? I guess I would ask what your intentions are with her and vice versa? Is she just a weekend warrior?biggrin

As I am really easy-going and generally a forgiving person, people tend to seem confused when I call them on their baloney right to their faces. How better can I get my point across?






I'm very easy going as well unless I see someone being taken advantage of or someone is blatantly being mean to me for no justified reason..



Maybe as an alternative call them out on it but in a less dramatic way.. I would first laugh and say your kidding right as to lighten the sceanerio and then wait for their responce.. If she said no... I would say something to the lines of. I really don't appreciate you calling me up and asking me for money. I enjoy your company and I don't mind paying for us going out to dinner or for entertainment but I'm not going to just pay for your cable or clothes.. Monetary gifts that you give to people shouldn't be demanded by them.. It should come from you when and if you choose to give something..

I would sugar coat it a little with how beautiful you think she is and how you enjoy her company- (that is if you do?) Just to lighten the blow a little if the moment is appropriate to do so, and she is responsive in a positive manner..



If she is all fussy which I'm guessing she might be because of her asking you those questions in the first place then you really don't need her in your life..



Nothing gay dude but your not a bad looking guy and you seem to be though sarcastic allot- very intelligent... You don't need such baloney in your life...

I would try a bite of it if you made it for me..biggrin ..but I probably wouldn't like it. It doesn't sound like something combined that would be appealing...

...but I am glad you enjoy it... There are certain foods I like that you may not as well...

I got ALL of my friends in Dallas to try it a couple of weeks ago and they love it. It just goes to show you never know.

Yes, I would make it for you and you WOULD like it happy

I seriously make it a point of my life to speak the truth, unless it will terribly hurt someone or it's none of my business. You would be surprised how many people are not surprised by your truths. My soul feels so much lighter and freer when I don't have misrepresentations going on. It takes a lot of bravery, but it's worth it, man!
