Hi all,

I really would like someone's opinion on my friends situation.

He met this Woman almost 2 years ago we will skip the first year because it was all good.
But on Valentines Day this year he brought her 24 Red Roses and Dinner and a pair of Silver earrings, she told him she didn't like the earrings and could they take them back and change them for something else. He agreed so off they went on the following Saturday to change them, she asked several times how much they cost and he declined to answer. So the shop obviously said no we can't exchange them as they are earrings, so outside the shop she asked him two or three times again how much did they cost and he lied and said £90.
So she said she would write to the shop to complain, he then said i lied they were only £15 she went mental and didn't talk to him for a week. at this point he was spending thousands renovating a old house and money was tight.
He brought more Roses and left them with a card to say sorry which she accepted.
A month ago she finished with him saying she can't see how it will work as her house is worth 3 times his house and she has no mortgage. And dosn't want anyone with a mortgage after the debts her husband run up.
He is desperately in love with her and he is taking her out for a meal next weekend in the nice new car he has just brought after selling his house.

I think he should forget her, he may not be the best looking man in the world but he deserves better he saved her a fortune by fixing the fridge and the dishwasher all he got was a thank you.

There is more to it but i have given you the basics.

Thank you for reading my post.

I think it won't matter much what you or anyone else thinks about this. It's a private matter and if your friend wants to chase after someone who doesn't appreciate him, then he'll have to learn the hard way. There's nothing you can usefully say to him except that he's a nice guy, you hope his efforts pay off and to wish him luck.

Then be on stand by with the Kleenex :)

He's a Big Boy now

Not much you can do. If you slag her off, they will cut you out.

if you want to, hang around until it goes pear shaped and be ready to pick up the pieces

Who is the 'friend' to you I wonder? Your post sounds almost maternal....
