Drew,

In other words, its getting to be time to put this in the hands of a "Higher Authority".
You know how it is when you really want something and events conspire to make it impossible get?
Well, if something is "meant to happen" events will align favorably for it to happen.
For example:
When my wife and I moved to TN to go to College after I got out of the Navy, we had an apartment ready to go to. Or so we thought.
It turned out that the apartment was a poorly maintained, crackerbox, infest with slugs, rodents, and Lord knows what else.
My wife was in tears. I was disappointed, and school was starting in less than 10 days.
We did a lot of communicating with God. As this was a little rural town where loans were approved on the basis of the loan officer knowing who your daddy was.
Well, we found a much better apartment. It wasn't infested with vermin. It had working air-conditioning and heat, all the amenities, so to speak. It was also less than half the rent of the first place. And we were in, with all our stuff before classes started.
I'm saying all this to say, that whether or not you wait to advance your relationship, things will work in your favor if this is the right move to make. And they will work against you otherwise.
I know that this is putting a lot of faith in God, Karma, or whatever you believe in. But, Sometimes, that is what we have to do.
Still, my friend, Go with God. I hope this all works in your favor. You deserve a little happiness.![]()

You sound it. The very fact that you're thinking so hard about this one rather than just blastin gin with the Viper and the cash is a real sign that you're a mature, decent person.
Der Alta has given you heaps of good advice - me and him have chatted about stuff before, and I can tell you he's got his head screwed on properly!
What you need to remember is that while you have superior resources, her family have their pride, and they will want to take her to Florida, and do things for her. OK, so you have more cash, and could fly them first class, and take them to top restaurants, but all you'll do is embarrass them by making them feel inadequate. You have to play it really cool, but use your resource in a thoughtful way. Regular flowers, and small gifts are great. Don't go for a huge piece of jewellery, think "cute". Cute is good, flash is not. We're two months before Christmas, so start finding things out about her for gifts. I'm not talking "Gold or platinum?", I'm talking "Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger or Piglet?"
Perhaps think about spending some time with her between Christmas and New Year - it's typically a wasted time that most people have on holiday, and it would give you a prime opportunity to spend some time with her.
Good luck mate, I think you're on the right track, and you've had some good advice. Now go into the big world and meet her. But if you can only manage one thing, make it this:
Be calm.

hey , thanx for the feedback man, i really appreciate it
I agree that Der Alta has some very sound advice. He basically re-iterated every thing that I was thinking in my head.
I did kinda wanna work the sensitive and cute angle on this one. Im thinking a nice fluufy blanket with pooh and the gang on it.
Christmas is a very busy time for me and i am worried that i will not get the oppurtunity to see her.
And yeah, i tend to use GTP as my sounding bored to let the little bastard out in me.
thanx again

You're welcome. You can always PM me if you want to talk privately.
I hate Christmas, but a lot of people love it. If you're busy then, well think about early in the new year. Or what about when she's actually studying? When you can go see her, and do the tourist stuff in her town, but meet her from class with hot coffee and muffins?

Sorry Gil, i dont believe in god
the very notion and mention of him infuriates me
i do agree that if its ment to happen, it will happen ( i just dont think god has anything to do with it)

I can understand that with all that's happened. Further, I am not trying to offend.
That is why I added other options.
I still think you deserve some happiness, and the fairy tale ending. And IMHO nothing beats being in love.
I wish you all the best.
Like the man said (j2s)
Her pops likes you,
Her friends like you,
Her pops likes you,
She loves you,
And did I mention, her pops likes you?
I have seen that you have a good heart, and your head seems to be screwed on straight. You like to come off like "little bastard" with us. But we know better. And we still like you and accept you.
Also, Talk to your folks. (I figure you're already doing this).
A. It will clue them in to the fact that you're serious about this girl.
B. Sometimes we old farts have some good advice.
C. Nothing like having the backing of both sets of parents.
D. Since your head is screwed on straight, I'm gonna go out on a limb and bet that they had something to do with that.
They will help you get to it and thru it.

Just forget everything after "and we still like you and accept you"
I think I'm just gonna observe for a while.

On a side note, Andrew - I'm paying for a good portion of my girlfriend's graduate school education, and her parents honestly appreciate it. Her parents are actually good friends of my brother and his wife. If push really (really) comes to shove, offer to pay for something minor. If she starts living with you, make it real clear that her parents money is no longer needed when the daughter is living under your roof - it would give her parents reason to sleep at night...
...side note II: Do her parents have any other kids?
Originally posted by M5Power
Yeah, maybe. My girlfriend's dad is kind of like Dudebusta, so he's got no actual pride, but I suppose that even if it would be stealing his pride, it would definitely ease the pain of all the money they need to make....
...oh yeah, and wire me $75,000, tax free - I need an M5, and i need it with someone else's money.![]()

I should start a charity. Everyone writes in what car they want and why, then i pick out the top 5 every month and buy it for them![]()
