Dating Life & Hookup Stories

I was reminded of this while watching the Springsteen biopic: as a hip 20 year old I went to meet my GF’s parents before taking her to the pub. They were both academics, she was adopted and I was vaguely aware that she’d had a troubled past. My Big Star T-shirt was in the wash so I wear a band t-shirt for Alan Vega’s minimalist synth outfit. Only later did I realise that she had spent several months in a coma after trying to off herself at 16 and here I was wearing a tshirt simply emblazoned with the word SUICIDE. They never warmed to me after that

A friend of mine asked a really hot newly-divorced girl on a date. She agreed although they struggled to find a time that was mutually convenient. They finally agreed on a date and time but the day before she said she had to cancel: she’s saving f for a trip to Italy and didn’t really want to spend the money on a babysitter for the evening.

Was this a gentle let-down because she isn’t really that interested? Or was she hinting for him to pay for the babysitter?

All I got from this story is it's always about money with women. Who needs it, who makes it, who has it.
