You sound a little ashamed about the way you live and you shouldn't. You are paying back debt, saving and living in a way that allows you to do that quicker. Invite her over and if she whines or complains then you know all you need to about her. It does sound like you already do though.
Well, I didn't furnish my apartment because it feels like a pitstop to me, and the mail slot is in the front door so someone can lift the flap and see what I have inside. Furthermore, no one really visits anyway, and I don't want to furnish it just for potential company. I intend to move out soon, and when I do move into my next place it will be fully furnished (of course, I expect the place to be a bit nicer).
Admittedly, I am somewhat ashamed of how I am living. I know what I'm doing, but I make decent money yet I live like a broke college student. Helps me out in the long run but I still sometimes feel a little embarrassed by it. Also, this girl is attractive and makes for decent company although there are some characteristics I can live without. I probably do need to either find another woman, decide to remain single, or shut up and ride the wave. Not sure exactly what to do about that at this point, but I know I'm still very apprehensive about her coming here.
She wants you to drive a total of nearly 5 hours so that she can see your place? Why? and why does she not have a car? Tell her the drive is simply too far for you to come pick her up, go back to Baltimore, then back to Lorton, etc. It's a ridiculous request.
let me replay some of the phrases I saw in your post about this girl. she -
is spoiled,
a bit pretentious
might start whining
Why are you pursuing a relationship with this person? The words in your post give me a good idea you are not comfortable or enamoured with this girl -do BOTH of you a favor and move on
5 hr round trip ?
hhmmmm. you use the same watch as my girlfriend, when she says "5 minutes"
OP, if you don't like her, then stop making excuses and wasting her time, hoping a better offer comes along.
or, try it, and see where this goes. you never know.
