Help me please.

[Spike Spiegel]

yesterday i told my friend that i'd take her down to the doctors to get her cast removed but i'm a total retard and set my alarm for PM instead of AM and thus slept through the time i was suppost to go pick her up, and i've already done something like this before. i said that i'd pick her up from the airport and i told her like a week in advance that i'd pick her up and then i just plain old forgot about it and somehow my phone turned off, i don't know how, i know i didn't turn it off, but it was off and she had left me a dozen message and eventually her dad came and picked her up so i need a way to make it up to her. and i'm kinda coming up short in the ideas department so could someone help me think of something? please?

damn...shit happens...she is dissapointed...go out with her, maybe a romantic wekend in a house close to a beach or so...no real idea

[Snook]

You're fucked....no matter how much you try to make it up to her, she'll always remember this.
The fact that she left you 12 messages speaks for itself = this was an important thing for her.
Women have a sixth sense to remember these kinda stuff... eventually, she'll use it against you someday in the next 10 years

[Mort]

exactly the day she screws up. you have nothing to say to her because she can always say "remember that time...".

but if i was to try. i would go with flowers. and a card. and a sincere apology.

she's already in an exclusive relationship.
You're fucked....
well that makes me feel batter.
The fact that she left you 12 messages speaks for itself = this was an important thing for her.
the first few were where are yous. the next were kinda mad are you even coming at alls but most of them were more i'm worried something happened to you.
exactly the day she screws up. you have nothing to say to her because she can always say "remember that time...".
she's actually a really cool chick. and doesn't pull that kinda shit with me. just her boyfriend. :twisted:
but if i was to try. i would go with flowers. and a card. and a sincere apology.
thanks i think i'll try that.

[Mort]

well that's cool she's not the kind to throw it back at you.

don't just get her roses though. get her some different type. roses are everywhere. go to the florist. and explain that you need to say your sorry. they can help you out. you also might want to try to get her some flowers of her favorite color.

[Spike Spiegel]

i was thinking about getting her some orchids. but am not too certain that's what i should go with. i think i'll try your idea just going to a florist and seeing what they think. thanks mort.

[Mort]

well i know if it was my girlfirend orchids and lillys would work becasue that's what she likes. but every girl is differnt so the florist thing is the best idea.

just don't get the flowers from a grocery store. mostly they look bad. and girls notice it.

[cph]

Aite man honestly you are screwed. Now ive been known to help alot of people with their personal and relationship issues, but this is a toughie, cuz you really DID screw up. But I can get you out.

But as in any relationship, friends or gf, honesty is #1 priority.

First find out why you did not hear the phone. Next prepare a small, sincere and honest speech why you couldnt do that. But heres the tricker, DONT MENTION it until she does. I am guessing shes in a hospital or something or at home? Anyway heres what I would do..

Visit her house. Flowers is an OK gesture, personally I think thats extra, but if you are close to her than sure why not.
Say hey how are you feeling, Im honestly sorry I wasnt there for you, it was as series of bad events... I really appologize.
NOTE: Focus on how shes feeling, remark that she looks awesome without the cast, tell her to move whatever was plastered. Concentrate on her, not on your mistake.
If she brings up why, then say that little speech of what happened, remember honesty is #1. Tell her how hard you prepared, tell her u set AM to PM, tell her you are really SORRY, but glad everything worked out. If she doesnt ask, I wouldnt get into it.

Anyway at the end say sorry again, and tada.. ur either in if shes aite with it or youre out. If she dont even wanna see you, I cant really help u there, have no expereince with that :twisted:

[cph]

Spike, most important for a girl is not some flowers, but your sincerity and honesty.

If you cheat on a girl, no matter how many flowers you give her, she would not forget it. understand?

[cph]

lol also whatever you do DO NOT mention that you forgot that she was coming. Thats the biggest wound you could open. Say you kept thinking about it and thinking about it but then took a nap or something and slept through with ur alarm that didnt go on, and ur cell lost its batteries powrer.

[Spike Spiegel]

thanks everybody for all your help. she just called me to see if i wanted to hang out for the rest of today so i think she's cool with me but i'm still goin with some flowers and sincerity. and cph thanks for the focus on her stuff i'll do most of that as well. so thanks again everbody.

[Mort]

no problem. glad everything is fine .

[Snook]

Good luck with that M8

[Spike Spiegel]

i'm back as some might have noticed and all is right in the world. well atleast the world between me and my friend.

[Mort]

i'm back as some might have noticed and all is right in the world. well atleast the world between me and my friend.

yeah i kind of figured things would be good, once you said she called you and wanted to hang out. so that's good.

[Spike Spiegel]

yep. i'm happy.

[Snook]

Good to see you happy.

Didn't want to break down your Morale earlier but was just telling the damn cold truth... and I thought she was your Own GF, not just a Friend :wink:

[Spike Spiegel]

it's all good snook. yeah if she was my GF i'd be fucked and not in a good way.

[Mort]

it's all good snook. yeah if she was my GF i'd be fucked and not in a good way.'

yes it would be a much harder situation if she was your girlfrined. if your girlfriend isn't happy you won't be happy either. but we love girls despite their quirks.

[sterlingmemory]

I know this was a while back, but I hey, I'm the archive guru.

Solution:
All women love flowers and jewelry, plain and simple. Any woman that says they don't, are fibbing to you or they're not old enough to even think about things like that yet.
An elegant piece of jewelry(not something from a gumball machine....yes I've seen that done) and roses(anything but red unless you are involved with the woman) will always provail. And after she gets suprised by these things, it's the perfect time to say you're sorry whether it's your fault or not. It doesn't mean you are taking blame, just that sh*t happens and you feel bad. Showing you care is what matters, far above any jewelry or flowers, but those are just ice breakers. Damn, to think that Dr. Phil is getting paid for crap like this and I'm not..............

[Spike Spiegel]

good advice. will keep that in mind for the future.
