“Sugar Mamma”

manners

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, my boyfriend told me that he wanted to take me out to a nice dinner as my present. Dinner was awesome until the bill came and he conveniently forgot his wallet. He slid the bill across the table and said “You’ve got this, right babe?” Happy Valentine’s Day to me!

— Amanda

Aftermath: To make up for the incident he took me out to a nice dinner again. This time, instead of forgetting his wallet he didn’t have enough money to cover the bill.

“Got What She Wanted”

manners

She noticed my grandma’s opal pedndant, a family heirloom. She asked if she could borrow it. I said “Maybe someday, it’s really important to me.” Two and a half years later I give in and let her borrow it for a weekend. She breaks up with me over the phone that night and refused to see me ever again. Guess she got what she wanted.

— Heirloom

Aftermath: She tried to get back with me a few times but denies she has the pendant, despite running in to her and seeing it around her neck. I’m only allowed the satisfaction of denying her advances, but I’d rather have the heirloom.

“Waiting by the phone”

manners

It was great. Then one day he said, “We need to talk”—but then wouldn’t take my calls. So I went without any last words.

— Snake

Aftermath: It’s been two months and we still haven’t had the “talk.”

“I’ll (never) get the next one”

manners

We had been talking on the phone for a month (he was overseas). The night I picked him up from the airport we went out. When we went to the bar for drinks he looked at me and said “You got this one I’ll get the next.”

— Nancy

Aftermath: We went out four other times and he did the same thing everytime, he never did get the next one!

“Coin Toss”

manners

A guy I dated had a choice, one night on going out with me or going with his friends. He flipped a coin and I lost.

— Wendy

Aftermath: He later came to my door and apologized, but it was too late.
