Today, I went out with a girl I've been dating. I dropped her off and she finally asked me if I wanted to come in. When I did, she asked me to change a light bulb in her kitchen, and then promptly sent me home. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was on a date with a girl I've had feelings for since I was 14 (I'm 22). I took her out to dinner, then to a movie that we both liked and had a few drinks afterwards. I thought it was going really well until I was driving her home and she asked to be dropped off at her boyfriend's house. FML
Today, my girlfriend left me. When she moved out, she even took the light bulbs with her. FML
Today, I asked a girl I liked what she was doing tomorrow night. She replied, "Cleaning, so nothing really." I then asked her out to dinner. She declined. FML
Today, I was cuddling with the girl I've been seeing for the past few months. She was saying how much she liked me and how much I meant to her. Reciprocating those feelings, I asked her to be my girlfriend. It was a HARD no for her. Then she drove me an hour and a half home. FML
Today, I went on a date with a girl I like. Afterwards, I drove her home, and we just sat there awkwardly. I thought she wanted to kiss me but was nervous, so I jokingly said, "What're you waiting for? Christmas?" I guess she took that as a "Get the hell out", because she broke into tears and left. FML
Today, after spending a great evening with the guy I really like, he dropped me off outside my house. When he pulled into my driveway, his lights shone onto my drunken mum taking the garbage out in nothing but her black panties. FML
Today, the girl I like was panicking because her car broke down, so I offered her a lift to wherever she needed to be. I drove her to her boyfriend's house. She asked me to drive her home in the morning. FML
Today, I was working as a service writer in an auto service shop. A really cute girl came in to buy a headlight, I offered to install the bulb for her. My hand got stuck behind the headlight, she had to ask one of our mechanics to come remove the air box from her car to get my hand out. FML
Today, I brought a girl home from the bar. After sleeping together, she drunkenly stumbles to the bathroom to wash up. On her way back, she accidentally walks into my parents' room, turns on the lights and asks where her clothes are before figuring it out. FML
Today, I brought a girl back to my place. She commented on how neat and clean everything was for a bachelor. I absentmindedly said, “Yeah, my mom comes over and cleans three times a week.” She made a face like I'd just told her I eat puppies or something, then made an excuse to leave. FML

How many dates does it take to change a lightbulb? Only one, it seems.

The plain fact is, she doesn't owe you anything. That's just the truth.

I agree she doesn't owe you anything but neither do you owe her anything. You are a nice guy for changing the lightbulb

Yeah, that was a slime ball move by the girl. Everyone knows that "do you want to come in" is code for "I'm ready to at least make out with you and probably go all the way."

Um, no. "Do you wanna come in?" is code for 'Do you wanna come in?' a meal, movies, talking, etc. "Do you wanna come in?" does not mean "let's get intimate." You're going to be disappointed quite a bit with a mindset like that. You shouldn't expect sex from your partner, your want for sex isn't more important hers.

ydi for expecting sex. if she invites you in it may just be for making out or having a nice talk etc. relationships and intimacy are more than sex

Sex is part of intimacy. If they've been dating for a while it's perfectly reasonable to want to take the relationship to the next step. Also, sex helps couples connect on a physical level as well.

duh. I never said sex was bad. I said ydi fir EXPECTING it. No one has a right to our deserves sex even from a partner.

#69 it is sorta implied there will be some sort of sexual contact whether intercourse or making out when someone invites you in after a date. talking wouldn't be bad but it wasn't even that. she used him and sent him home. she most likely stated things in a way that would make most people think something would happen then got him to do something for her and made him go home. that's what's wrong, not that they didn't automatically have sex but that she used him then told him to leave.

While I agree it's kind of junk she lets you into her home the first time just to repair and leave - she could've asked you about replacing it on the way there. Or hang out a few and then leave.

Well serves you right for expecting more

Maybe she wanted to have sex and then changed her mind/too nervous. No matter what that sucks OP!

Dump her, OP. If not, YDI.
