petitelover, I understand where you're coming from, but it doesn't really reflect my thinking.petitelover said:Hinz is right.
Moviefan - let me be a contrarian for the moment. You say your OK with it. You don't feel like a big loser with a capital "L" on your forehead for having to pay for it knowing the girl wouldn't be with you in a 1000 years if money were not involved?
I look at it this way -- spending quality time with an attractive woman who otherwise might not be with me in a thousand years is something I feel good about. I'm getting the opportunity to indulge in a fantasy situation and I know the payoff will be a sure thing.
The fact I had to pay for that time doesn't bother me, as every other customer who sees that same SP also has to pay for it. I'm not being treated any different than anyone else, so why should I feel like a loser?
(As an aside, there are legitimate reasons I could feel like a loser, but that's not one of them).
