Getting an expensive gift from a girl you don\'t want to date.
Ok, here’s the skinny,
My best friend had been in a relationship with a girl for about a year. Well it pretty much went no where, and about a month ago he talked to her and they mutually agreed to be friends, but the romance part was gone. I think he made the mistake of not making a clean break, and they kept hanging out together throughout the last month. They work in the same building, so I guess that can make things more complicated. Anyway – today she “borrowed” his rig to run some errands. Turns out the whole running errands bit was a lie, and she actually had a nice stereo systems installed in his rig – probably a couple hundred bucks easy. IMO (and I think his too) not something you spend on …just a friend. He thought they were on the same page, but it would appear not. What’s my friends move?? He doesn’t want a relationship with this girl beyond just friends, and doesn’t want to be a dick.

Re: Getting an expensive gift from a girl you don\'t want to date.
maybe buy her an equally nice gift and then tell her you just want to be friends, but you are giving a nice gift anyways because you didn't want to feel like a jerk?
probably a bad idea. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I'd recommend he tells her exactly how he feels. He might get a different perspective after doing so. Who knows why she bought him the gift but why guess. Maybe she thought she owed him $200 or something. This doesn't seem to be too difficult to me.

Freaking girls do it all the time! It's not about being a dick it's about keeping a balance in the universe. It's his duty as a man and if he has to sleep with her every once in awhile to keep getting free [censored] then that's a sacrifice he's gonna have to make. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

OMG......... If the situation was reversed, females would totally let the guy buy her gifts and not think twice. Please let him enjoy this once in a lifetime situation.
