Something different

Not car related but am getting some stick about this from a lady at work, what are your views.
Saturday i went on a third date with a girl and it was her idea to go to Bond street shopping, so seeing as we were there i did some shopping.
Well the lady at work says that was wrong i should have bought her something??
What do you think, buying her something on the third date??
Cheers

Until I'm actually in a relationship with a girl, I tend not to buy anything big unless it's her birthday/Christmas. Up till then, pay for drinks, meals, cinema etc, but not clothes, electrical goods and the such. Jewellery only if it feels right...Saturday i went on a third date with a girl and it was her idea to go to Bond street shopping, so seeing as we were there i did some shopping.

The other woman, knowing the inner workings of a female recognised the ploy of going shopping as something to do for a date.
Blokes hate shopping, women love it, and she was guaranteed to get something when they do the same old trick of looking at a pair or shoes for 10 mins, trying them on, saying how great they would be, followed by "but I can't afford them" and then waiting indefinitely as she know you'll go for your wallet.

You've got to question yourself if you agree to go shopping after only 2 dates.
Thats the male equivalent of a woman agreeing to anal and eels after the first.
There is no way she will have a shred of respect left for you I am afraid
There's a good suggestion for the fourth date!Thats the male equivalent of a woman agreeing to anal and eels after the first.

I don't remember that every happening to me. Maybe it's because I'm terrible at reading between the lines. I would probably tell her to ask the shop assistant to save them until pay day.Blokes hate shopping, women love it, and she was guaranteed to get something when they do the same old trick of looking at a pair or shoes for 10 mins, trying them on, saying how great they would be, followed by "but I can't afford them" and then waiting indefinitely as she know you'll go for your wallet.
I was single for quite a while...
Maybe that explains it...
I'd ditch her, shopping third date... obviously no imagination. This is the date where you get her out on the tiles, ruin her with alcohol and then ruin her! Shopping is something you do together when you go pro.
However exceptions can be made... i.e you meet for a coffee and one or the other chimes up that they need to go to such and such to buy something. Just to be explicitly clear here though, that then doesn't turn into an afternoon following them around every f
g retail outlet twice before she'll even entertain the idea of that fabled coffee.

If she had popped in to Myla to try on some frillys then I might have paid 
In case you were serious...
save that for after you've sealed the deal and done the dirty deed, no need to drop hints that you want to bump uglies.If you bought them no then you'd never see them again.

Oh, it'll have happened all right, I bet you never noticed the open catalogues with something circled in them either, left in obvious places, or "that looks like a nice place to go" when some holiday advert is on TV.I was single for quite a while...

There's always a subtext, unfortunately no one has yet managed to fully crack the code.
Topping the oil up with washerfluid probably means "I want a new car"
The sabotage can be hidden as clumsiness but the end result is the same.
