So there's this new chick I've been seeing. And I use the term "seeing" loosely, because a) she's a head case, and b) compromise doesn't seem to be a word that is familiar to her vocabulary.
At any rate, Christmas Eve is tomorrow night, and obviously Christmas is Sunday. Now Christmas Eve is a big deal to both our respective families (the Italian thing), so no big deal. But for me, Christmas is a pretty low-key deal, basically just me & my folks, maybe my grandparents if they're feeling up to it. She has to go down to her grandmother's, maybe 40 minutes away, but we just got off the phone, and she's basically said "there isn't anything she can do." I understood about the whole family thing and whatnot, but it's not like she couldn't get in her car and come spend some time with me on Christmas night, after the whole fucking holiday thing is done with. But nope, she won't even entertain the thought.
I'm a bit put off by that, especially since I went out of my way today to go get her 2 pretty nice gifts that I was hoping to give to her at some point.
There's a long backstory to this, that I don't feel like going into, but the girl doesn't exactly make herself available very often. It's quite trying, and truth be told, I don't really have the patience for this nonsense.
So should I just suck it up and be MORE understanding, or should I cut my losses early (before it's a more serious relationship) and say, see ya?
