There are some things you just have to do sometimes to please your parents no matter what your age. Going on with this guy now she can easily tell her dad "hey we went on a date and I gave it a shot, but I'm happy with my current bf"
If there wasn't any intimate mingling involved, I can't really say it was "cheating". So, assuming that they only went out on a CASUAL date, I think you are a bit overreacting to the situation.
It sounds like she was doing her parents a favour. She went, she ate. No matter what her motivations were, she has shown that she prefers you to this rich guy.
Well, my ex-girlfriend actually DID go on those casual dates, so I'm speaking from my own experience here. Besides, if there is a strong trust between the two parties, those dates shouldn't raise any concerns. After all, you trust your partner. You can talk about it and ask her how it went and laugh about it over dinner, or whatever.
The biggest thing that bothers me is that she waited nearly a month to tell you about this. I'm not positive, but I'm leaning towards yes when considering whether this is cheating or not. In my opinion, one can still cheat without having sex.
Maybe you should try to get along with her father so he won't feel the need to set her up on dates? But if you don't trust her after 5 years, well then it may be too late.
It depends on the nature of the date, which was, well her parents wanted them to marry him (for money reasons, which makes her parents DUMB). She didn't tell you about it, because of the nature of it, and because she knew how you would react. I'd call it cheeting, its not like she just went to see him. But don't blame her, blame her parents for pressuring her. Parents have a huge amount of influence over their children, even if their children are 40. So she probably didn't want to go on the date, and didn't want to tell you about it. Now, if she saw him a second time, that would be her fault, and thats when you should get angry.
yeah I'd say cheating too, she waited just a bit too long... And standing up to your parents is just something you gotta do at some point say "look dad! This is the guy I wanna be with, and if you wanna keep seeing me, you'll stop trying to hook me up with someone else!" If she can't do that, she might not be worth it
she prolly ate with him.. then fucked the living shit out of him... but thats what happens when you give your hart to a whore.
And you know she's a whore...HOW? That's a nice way to describe a lady who went on a casual date to make her father shut up. But I say it's lacking in the sensitivity department.
Haha! Totally agree!... What the fuck do you do man? You let a girl rule you and go on other dates without you knowing(If you knew it would've been o.k.)... With intent to marry him? Okay.. That's bad. What is worse though is that you don't react to it! You send out the signal that, ok, I'm fine with you looking for another guy to marry (And you're seemingly not). Talk to her about it, without pretending to be too nice..... Give it a shot man! Anyways, good luck!
yeah I agree with ^^^^^^^^ get some balls and tell her if it bothers you. maybe she's seeing other guys because she presummes you don't care when you really just need to get a pair (heh I like that rhyme)
This guy's already mentioned she went out on the date for faith reasons. But no one has seemed to touch on it. How deeply is she involved with her faith? Will she let it (and her parents) dictate her life? If so, it could very well be a lost cause. What is her faith exactly? I ask so that those of us who may know something or other about it can help you out a bit more. This is probably a deeper issue than his girlfriend going out with a guy to shut her dad up. For all we know, it could be an arranged marriage in the making.. And what daughter really wants to disappoint her parents that much? *shrugs*
so basically none of what has been typed under this name has made any sense to me....am i right in speculating that you and your significant other are fighting through your account on here? from the sound of it, you both have some issues, so i'd say be happy with what you can get, and don't have any babies.
