Today, my girlfriend and I were buying Subway. When it came to ring up the order the lady asked us together or separate? My girlfriend looked and said separate. Half-jokingly, I asked if it was some sort of hint. She looked at me and said yes. I got broken up over a 12-inch ham sub. FML

#33 Let me break this down for you. "Me" is an object pronoun and, as such, you use it when you're the person that the verb is being done to (e.g., he gave me a book). "I", on the other hand, is a first person singular subject pronoun so it refers to the person performing the verb. So it doesn't make sense to use "me" is you're talking about something that you are doing (such as buying a sandwich). You'd only use it if you're saying that someone was buying you a sandwich (i.e., my girlfriend bought me Subway). Last point is that, when you are listing a group of people (2 or more) that includes yourself, you always put yourself last. Think of it as manners. You don't serve yourself first when pouring drinks, you let people pass through doors before you, and you list yourself last. Therefore, the only correct way to state the sentence is, "My girlfriend and I were buying Subway." And thank you, #33, but I'm about 14 or so grades past the end of grade school.

#55 is absolutely correct. My girlfriend and I. It's basic stuff.

at least she didnt make you pay for her meal like my ex did when she broke up with me

Listen to the song "Big Girls Need Love Too" by Blueprint, itll all make sense to you

That's weird... seems like you may be better of now. She sounds pretty bitchy. People who pull crap like that are just wasting your time. Move on and find something better.

Wow. I work at Subway. You two can't have been together for very long if she did that. I don't want to know how a married couple got divorced the same way. Now see, a lot of same sex pairs buy together at Subway as well, so I prefer to ask "Same or separate checks?", or "Are these on the same tab?" as to not imply anything. Apparently it would have saved this couple for at least a few moments, too.

@55 Stop filling up this space with inane babble like that. It's an internet forum. Who cares?

#41 No apologies needed. That was great! #44 Where do you want me to insert it?

Hah! That's what you get for not being vegetarian! Jk, sorry to hear it.
