Take out and Tips / Gifting
[QUOTE=Homeo; 1844171]Here are a couple of questions for situations I haven't seen on the forum before.
If you are seeing a girl for takeout at a hotel, is there a protocol for tipping? I have been in this relationship for several months and have never tipped. I do pick up the cost for the hotel room. Also no charge for the time. What have others done? No complaints from the girl.
If you've been seeing a (different) girl at a (different) store and it bypasses the HE completely and goes directly to a FS relationship, is there a need to up the tip. It has never been discussed, nor has it been stopped because of the amount. 90 minutes = 30 tip.
Both are Chinese.
What have others done?[/QUOTE]I was in a semi-relationship with AMP gal and saw her outside 3 star hotel every other week for 3-4 hours of time together. I paid for hotel room and gave her anywhere from $100-$200. She also really liked getting anything from Burberry. Seemed to love that. In the end, she started putting pressure on me to arrange for her parents to come to US, etc. At that point, clearly she wanted more from me than I was willing to give and I called it quits. She was very knowledgeable of the business (may have owned an AMP at one point in time). She told me that some of these gals will pay up anywhere $20k-$30k if the 'White Guy' will agree to marry them (temporarily, of course!).

Thanks for the feedback on my previous questions
To answer the questions other posters had.
I like the Hyatt hotels. They're reasonably priced and nice inside decent breakfast.
It takes a lot of investment to move to a situation where the girl is comfortable with you. There have been times that I have refused HE's. This is because this is not my end game. When I do this, it's the next time I get much more than just an HE.
I bring small gifts, candy, flowers, etc. If you're looking to wow them spend $50 at the Dekalb farmers market on flowers it makes for a impressive delivery. I also get gifts for other girls at the shop. It builds their appreciation for me as well. Tip well, but not over reasonably. Most of these girls see big spenders And don't hold much respect for them. They like the money, but that is all.
As far as designer Bags, jewelry, shoes or clothing I have not gone down that road yet. The problem is their taste in designers runs towards the High end. Louis Vuitton, Hermes or Prada are too rich for my pocketbook, Especially in this type of relationship.
The only other thing that I notice, is kissing. A lot of the other Members will not kiss. I do. The Chinese culture generally doesn't do a lot of kissing. At least according to the people that I've been with. This becomes a novelty for them. And can create wonderful opportunities for you.
I'm not the most experienced poster out there. I strike out occasionally. I share through PMs with other senior members. But will not share my current ATF's.
I didn't mean to offend you.
[QUOTE=Hobby For All;1844336]REALLY? You think niteluvr's posts are nothing of value. You are barking up the wrong tree and will get no help from others here. Just realize you eeffed up and take your lumps.[/QUOTE]I didn't realize that you and niteluvr were dating.
