This is interesting, but honestly, it's a bit disheartening. I don't argue that what y'all are saying isn't true; or fair. But the bottom line is ... the bottom line. I'm simply not going to spend four figures to take a lady with me for a few days, and you are all pretty much saying that is what it will take, especially if you include the expenses. So I think I'll just have to chalk this one up to wishful thinking.
I do appreciate the thoughts.

We also discuss how much time they want to spend with me doing non-BCD activities, because everyone is different and I don't always want to be attached at the hip...I like to go do stuff on my own time, as well. BUT, I'm not charging thousands of dollars if you've just taken me on an all-expenses-paid vacation to Hawaii or something. Hell, I'd do a few days in the Caribbean for next to nothing as long as we have previously spent time together, I am caught up on my bills, and I can afford to miss a few days. Why not? Where do I sign up?!
