So not all that long ago I'm dating this girl, not all that seriously, and we go to this fancy cocktail party and she sees a woman who's wearing a pair of shoes like these.
And she says to me, "if you love me you'll buy me a pair of those."
She was completely serious, too.
At that point I didn't even know what they were. What do I know about women's shoes? But then I found out how high end they were and I'm like "I don't think it's a good sign that she's hitting me up for that on the 5th date."
It wasn't. We didn't last too much longer for a bunch of reasons related and unrelated to that. She ended up being pretty hostile and not that well-behaved.
But ever since I got Amber I've thought about how ironic and funny it would be if I ended up buying Amber these things while the bitchy ex-girlfriend got diddly poo.
