My gf and I were trying to come up with ways to save money for our wedding. She suggested I stopped drinking beer. We were at the mall and she wanted to get makeup. It wasnt cheap, so I sugguested she stop wearing makeup. She said, "Dont you want me to look pretty for you?".... I said, "That is what the beer was for." She the store, and I havent heard from her since. Do you think she is ever coming back?

Darling it is obvious that you have a dry sense of humor and if your girl cannot understand that than that will be a negative in your marraige. You truly do not need to get married if a joke leads to a tandrum from her side. Understandably some jokes hurt, she obviously has a slight complex that she feels shes not pretty enough. However, She is and you need to remind her that. If you want to get married and have a huge bash it will require making more money than just stopping your guilty pleasures of beer and makeup which quite frankly if they make your day, are must haves.
All the same maybe your both not ready for that big move and truly marraige is a serious matter. Once married you and if you have kids you will need to make more money that you can imagine becuase little pleasures like beer and makeup might be off the list if you are both not bringing in enough. So instead of fighting over such matters good luck on understanding if you are both compatible and willing participants in your relationship.
Little comments should not break you both up unless your are both always being rude to each other than definitely a no, no.
I just say from experience. Good Luck.

Women can hold a grudge! Have you appologized to her? She is thinking you already got her you don't need the beer anymore and the beer isn't exactly a long lasting effect. Her makeup is what makes her feel better about herself and she can use it longer (hence the expense of it). Once you have smoothed things over you might consider a compromise in that department and ask her to try a less expensive makeup. I imagine there are things she could give up and as for your beer if you really love her and want to marry her maybe you could cut back a little as well!

That was NOT a good thing to say to a woman, even if you thought you were kidding! Yes, I think she will come back, but you had better have a great apology for her, and you should probably cut back on the beer. Good Luck!!

I don't know. Depends on what kind of person she is. How would beer make you pretty? Anyway, maybe she should try wearing cheaper makeup. I don't wear expensive makeup but I get compliments on it all the time. depends on how you apply it...Anyway, as for you ?, why don't you try contacting her and talking to her about it? she'll probably want to.

lol, she might come back, I hope you was joking. But women dont take jokes about themself to lightly. I will suggest calling her till she aswers the phone. The next time if she ask u dont u want me to look pretty for you u might want to say... U always do, with and without make up. That what i like to hear, thats how i am married now lol.

If you want her back you need to apologize. What you said was funny but also hurtful. You need to tell her how much you love her, how attractive she is, how much of an a** you are. She's not just going to come back unless you do something.

Maybe not. You made a callous remark and made her feel bad. You criticized her and belittled her and caused her hurt. Sounds as though you are not very considerate of other people's feelings especially girls. If I were her and you said that to me I would not give you a second thought and more than likely she won't either.

considering what you said i don't think she's coming back. you should have re worded it...like instead of saying "that's what the beer was for" you should have said something like "yea, but can you get something like Azazi II. It has the same shades but at cheaper prices.". you get it now. women leave you when you hurt them.

No, she's not if she's all there. You're obviously not ready for the wedding if you're dumb enough to say things like that. Not meaning to be harsh or anything, but seriously. Why would you say that?

Im not sure...but if you do loves her, you should say sorry to her. Its a hurtful comment that you make, hows ur feeling if she said that she need alcohol to make you looks hunky in her eyes?
Get a bunch of flowers and a box of chocolate, go to her place and said sorry..
If you are planning to marry her, you can go as far as that & please, if you love her, do it. Its not worth to lose someone over this, you are going to regret it for the rest of your live.
good luck
