Young Ed Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Ok so my girlfriend of ~3months says "I am going home for the 4th. You can come with if you want but you don't have to" Did I really have a choice? Quote
NatesSedan Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Depends on if you want to keep her around. Quote
John Burke Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Yes but only one....if you want to keep seeing her....hehehe....john Quote
Niel Hoback Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 The choice is whether you want to go with her or not, but rather do you want her for a girlfriend or not. A negative answer to the first will also answer the second. Quote
Young Ed Posted July 1, 2008 Author Report Posted July 1, 2008 For the record I am already planning on going. Just debating whether I had a "choice" Quote
krodaddy Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 YES you do have a choice, do what you want. If you want to go, then go and have a good time. If you would rather not go then tell her and if she dumps you because you shared how you really feel, then you didn't need her around anyway. That's how I really feel. Barry Been married for 23 years. I know some stuff. Quote
Allan Faust Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Ok so my girlfriend of ~3months says "I am going home for the 4th. You can come with if you want but you don't have to" Did I really have a choice? Oh oh... its the good old "meet the parents"..... after which follows the ring, the kids, etc, etc.... but its up to you!!! (BTW-Have fun on the 4th with the in-laws.... ) Allan Quote
steveplym Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 I would probably suggest going. If you asked her the same question would she go with you? My wife would go with me if I asked her too and if she asked me I would go with her for that reason. My wife's parents live about 2 hours north of us. When she moved down here to be with me about 10 years ago I was hesitant to go back up to her parents house to visit. I would go every once in a while, but I always had a car show or some other thing I wanted to do. Found out real quick that I wanted to be serious with her so I had to give up some of the things I wanted to do so I could go with her. She would do the same for me so it's only fair. That would be her version of it anyway. Quote
bob_amos Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Do you have a choice? Yeah right!!! Not hardly my friend. But... like Allan said, meet the parents, then the ring and then the kids, etc. etc. etc.... The real choice is, in what direction do you run away and how fast...... Quote
bkahler Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 If she's worth it there is only one choice......... Brad Quote
John Mulders Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 this is about reading between the lines. "Sure, do your thing" means "I don't like that you do that" Nothing more difficult to read than a woman On the other hand, she might actually mean it (haha, that doesn't help). So perhaps try fishing a bit and see what reaction you get? Seems that with either choice you will have fireworks ! Whether it will be enjoyable .... John Quote
Dennis_MN Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Ed, Couldn't help but think of the problem from the Microsoft viewpoint http://www.annoyances.org/exec/show/article09-132 Good luck with the fireworks Dennis Quote
daddyo23 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Really not much of a "choice" Ed. But, If you planned on going anyway then maybe this is serious. When you're ready, let me know. I'll do the service for you . Wayne P. Quote
Don Coatney Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 I cannot answer this question until you post a picture of your girlfriend. Quote
Young Ed Posted July 1, 2008 Author Report Posted July 1, 2008 Don are you doubting her existance? Quote
Reg Evans Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 I think Don wants to see what model of girlfriend you have. Some models require lots more maintenance but are sometimes worth it. Quote

knighthawk Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 I been married 39 years, same woman, .... I say don't go ! Let 'er know right off how things are going to be ...... If she likes you, it won't make any difference Quote
Don Coatney Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 (leasing verses purchasing) for a better understanding of where I stand on this deal. Quote
Captain Neon Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Ed, I've been married for 6 years now. I am with the majourity on this one. The question was not whether or not you wanted to go see her parents, it was whether or not you wanted to keep her. BTW, if you would prefer a scenic wedding w/ a Colorado Rockies backdrop, I can also perform the ceremony. Loveland is the Heart Capital of Colorado. Quote

BeBop138 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 ED, an old disc jockey friend of mine had a girlfriend he called "Kitty Litter" she`s the best I could do with the car I had. You might remember him Ugly Del Roberts----the Wolfman Jack of Minnesota----sorry I missed you at BTTF Quote
james curl Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 Among a whole lot of changes, time changes everything. I know I have 41 years with this woman, things do change after the new wears off. When first married we raced go karts together, but soon we needed new carpet in the living room and a new couch and the rest is history as they say. Knew all about cars when we went together, now only cares if it won't start. Quote
Young Ed Posted July 8, 2008 Author Report Posted July 8, 2008 Well all I survived the trip to SD. Meet her parents and grandparents and a whole lot of other relatives on the 4th. Quote
