High hopes

By mywillyisdisappointed - This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff - United States

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

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.

How many woman does it take to change a light bulb? None... COZ she got you to do it. Haha.

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!
