It comes to the point where I'm not playing wierd mind games with her... she's trying all the pattern on me!
1. The last three occasions we met (before last night), she refused her tip. First time, I lectured her about accepting my tip, and she gave in and took it. Second time, she lectured me about NOT accepting my tip, and I gave in and kept it. Third time, I cut off her protest and simply put it in her handbag...
You know I don't think I've ever met someone who gave me that much stress by NOT wanting money.
2. Yesterday night, I tipped her a full hour before we settled the bill (just for convenience sake). She came back after half an hour and stayed until we left. If this had been an "early tip test" that some bros like to try, she'd have passed with flying colours.
3. She then asked me if I still had enough to tide me over (WTF, do I look that poor?) and told me to take back my tip if so, just give her back next time. That was unnecessary.
4. The manager was sent to look for her twice - by her other two tables. Apparently she butterflied too long, in my room no less.
All this might sound delightful and promising especially if for the type looking for FOC, but I am trying very hard to make this relationship strictly business. Because if I accept Revieweebies Reviewom her now, next time she may feel justified in:
- running off for very long periods and then staying only 5 minutes each time (after all, if she's not taking my money, she has to earn Reviewom other customers)
- calling me whenever she has a problem. If I wanted that kind of treatment, I'd get a girlReviewiend.... or worse, get married.
And the biggest problem is the fact that I
like her company and her level of service, so I can't just tell her to get lost. And she is easily over 30... another plus point! You know how they say "if something is too good to be true, it probably is"?
