I had gal that I lived with once for almost 2 years and she would do just what you asked, and then morphed into I’ll never take you for granted. We did everything together and enjoyed each other’s company.
Then one thanksgiving we went to visit friends out of town and I was looking at the black Friday sales ads because I wanted a new plasma TV (2006) and right there at the breakfast table in front of our friends she told me that I need to focus on paying my bills and not buying stuff. I was floored. That Christmas I showered her in gifts as I always did and she was ecstatic. Then in January I bought myself my new plasma on my birthday on the way home from work. She was extremely pissed off about it. 5 days later on her birthday I presented her with tickets for our next vacation.
Then on April 15, 2007, a Saturday morning my brother called me up and wanted me to go with him to look at a new Harley he wanted to buy. I had a Harley and my gal had a Victory Vegas. So while waiting for him I started surfing the web looking at stuff for my bike and finally found a new set of pipes that I thought were cool and told her to check them out. She responded that I need to quit buying stuff for my bike and pay off my bills again. I got out of my chair and said F@#! you (the first time I had ever cussed her) and walked out the room telling her that I’m gone. She followed me into the bedroom saying she was sorry and I said I’m not and I proceeded to list all of the vacations and presents and parts for her motorcycle that I had bought for her over the last 2 years and not once did she worry about my bills. Then I showed her my bank statements and that my bills were already paid off.
It took me another 2 months to find an apartment to move into and when she came home on a Sunday afternoon I told her I wasn’t happy, rented an apartment and I move in on Tuesday. I then got up and walked out the door with her bottom jaw still on the floor!
You two don’t sound shallow at all.
