Very Sad and Very Disappointed - Hug Me Please D':

So, I was supposed to go on a date tonight, with a lovely young lady I met at college. Now this week my mum asked me to loan her money £210. At first I refused, explaining I need it for Saturday, she promised I'd get it back by then.

And I haven't. She hasn't returned my money which means I'm going to have to cancel. I am pissed the fuck off and really dreading phoning the girl.

    Oh man. That really sucks. On the one hand, that's a really pissed situation you're in, and on the other, it would be tasteless to bug your own mother to return you the money. I wouldn't like to be in such a situation.

    Oh damn. Perhaps propose to cook for her yourself and watch a movie, promising to get that date later?

    How well do you know her?

    Would she be accepting of you if you explained to her the truth of the situation?

    ^ That's also a nice idea.

    Yeah, the truth is probably the best policy. There's nothing unusual about being a student and being skint - hopefully, she'll appreciate that.


    It's a bit worrying that your mother is (a) borrowing money from you and (b) not paying it back, but I don't want to pry into your family situation.

    Milos: I know right, I had to phone and cancel, it was awful.

    Insanity: That...is actually a very, very good idea! Thanks.

    Glen: I know her fairly well, and I did explain to her what's happened she was just as disappointed as I am.

    Brass: I have no doubt that I will be paid back, it's just that she promised I'd be paid back by today, now because she hasn't paid me back I've had to cancel my date.

    Ical: I am indeed, I married my best friend for a laugh. Worst reason to get married ever? Yes. And it wasn't even that funny.

    ^ ...Your life makes me wonder sometimes...

    Also, the worst reason ever to get married is because your horoscope said so

    They're somethin' else.
    Ugh, Conductor, if that was my mother, I think I'd never do a favor for her again. Feel better, man.
  • FrodoGoofballCoTVFrodoGoofballCoTV

    Ouch.  Well, I'd have done the same if it was my mom. 

    Could you take her on a real cheap date?  Like watch a trash - barrel romantic comedy DVD at home over TV dinners cheap?  Or would that be a bad idea?

    ^^ Much appreciated. :D

    Ian: It's funny cause it's true. 

    Glen: Me and my wife aren't in a relationship, we're just married.

    ^ That would be interesting to bring up at parties:

    "Oh, so you married your best friend! You love each other THAT MUCH! How sweet!"
    "What? No. We just did it for a cheap laugh. It's just marriage after all"
