Talk to your girlfriend about giving the ticket to the dying guy. He could visit you guys instead and even stay at your place...couch, floor, whatever works. you wouldn't come off as a jerk and it'll allow your girlfriend to see him with you present. If he does have a terminal illness, he'll enjoy good company with you guys. Being close, you'd have a better idea of what went on if god forbid anything should happen. Its unfair to doubt the girl, but its also naive to rule out the possibilities. Hope this helps...good luck!
This is surprisingly a good idea (granted if she still insists on going). Is it too late to return the ticket?
^ -shrug im givin good advice unlike yo ass who would be fine to let yo gf fly over and spend 2 weeks with another guy in another country that neither of you met in person :laugh: would if be any different if she met him on eharmony 5 years ago? :laugh: bottom line she respects the other guy whom she only knows online more then she does to him.. thats a diss to him and her friend and his relationship.. He's got a big problem because of that alone and its the biggest red flag that ya'll cant see not to mention the disrespect shes handin out to him it's worthy of dumpin her butt on that alone. How can you spend the rest of your life with someone who doesn't respect you? esp on an issue as big as this.
This is spot on to how I feel, and I told her that. But she has explained that it is a promised to him that she made a long time ago and she has to do it. I feel like it would be a dick move to give her an ultimatum
Isn't 2 weeks a bit too long? How is she going to live off 180$ for two weeks? Tell her to go for 3 days..if she won't budge with her decision then there is something wrong with your relationship.
So in the end, based on the responses in this thread, there's one of two things wrong with this girl. Either she's got the mad hots for this guy, or she's one incredibly naive individual. In both cases I'd drop her like a hot potato. 180 bucks is nothing. That would be like one night at the hotel with some food.
next time she's going to tell you that a friend she met while playing sc a few years back got into a car accident and she's going to visit him in the hospital in korea
she's prob gonna have more than 180 since its wats left in her acccoount for now...I'm pretty sure she's gonna have more money by then or use credit...unless she really thinks 180usd is like 500 in canada because american currency is king to canadians ....either way she gota factor transit cost and its a lot compared to states.
If you trust her, don't worry about it and let her go If she cheats on you, then get rid of the woman! It will hurt, but man up...
While I think people meeting another person they have met online is more common these days, I think your girlfriend spending time with another person for two weeks is a bit excessive. Doesn't she have any obligations or priorities? $180 isn't that bad if you limit yourself.. I spent less than that on food, taxis, etc while I was in New York. Anyway, when I use to play WoW the only time someone ever flew great distances to see each other was when they had some sort of a relationship with each other, but I hope that is not the reason in your case. Female gamers are generally attention whores and seeing as your gf play games, I bet she is one too. That guy sounds fishy lol
I am sorry this had happen to you buddy :( Here's my view on your issue: 1. Your girlfriend is genuinely going to visit him and they are going to be friends. 2. She will visit him, and something will happen based on the moment and feelings. 3. She is determined to go see him and have a fantasy love life for two weeks. Now consider this, you are her significant and you should be able to convince her to not go and she should consider how this would make you feel. The problem seem to be your connection with one another and the values you both have on each other that you both view. Right now, it seem that your relationship is elastic (meaning able to substitute), whereas that dude is inelastic (vice-versa) hence she will still go and you are unable to convince her. Finally, there seem not to be much you can do other then have faith in her and change your self value, to greater so this event does not happen in the future. Also, if everything goes bad, well you know where you stand along with your self value.
Ahh people used his pic and trolled him, i was hoping he wasn't actually that stupid to write stuff like that.
