Master Don Juan
I'm going to prom, but I have a problem. My date is broke...very broke. After buying her dress, my boutonnière, and splitting with me for the pictures, she literally has no money left.
I wanna invite her to go do stuff with me in the next couple weeks leading up to prom (maybe her mother will give her some money?), but I don't wanna give the impression that I'll be paying for her all the time. I was thinking...say I invite her someplace, and she says "I don't have any money...I can go if you pay." What if I said something like "fine, since I'm a gentleman...but don't expect me to be your ATM." Too much? And what if she just says "no, I have no money." Should I just say "ok" and leave it at that? Or should I offer to pay for her, but remind her that I won't be always paying for things? The other day we skipped school together...we went and got some subs, and I paid. We were gonna go get ice cream, and I said "you're paying this time" and poked her, and she said "I only have enough to spend on prom stuff." We ended up not going.
And one more thing that seemed too frivolous to dedicate a whole new post for. I get steady IOIs from this girl, but something has been bothering me...I haven't escalated past anything more than a hug with her (I know, I know, but I hardly see her outside of school, we're both quite busy). But, the other day, I walked up behind her and put my arm around her and squeezed her a bit. After I moved away she said "why do you have to be all up on me like that??" and then quickly said "just kidding" before I said anything. I replied with some C&F comment and she smiled, but that was it. Am I over analyzing that? She seems to be pretty playful, but I keep thinking about that.
