If he thinks it's so appealing he would have discussed it with her, not leave it as a 'suprise' for when she gets there.Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostTwo points to bear in mind though, which might put a better light on his attitude (despite what AP mentions him saying):
* multi-millionaires are often absurdly miserly, especially about petty things (despite happily lashing out on big things every now and then)
* If this guy is used to 5-star living and his creature comforts, perhaps he sees a couple of weeks in a tin shack as a welcome "back to nature" type of break, sort of like a camping holiday. It may also be reminiscent of roughing it as a student, reliving his young days, which he might also find appealing.

Simples - warn her that he may be after her just for her cute firm body. To test this, she should not put out on the holiday, or indeed allow any sexual contact. If he loves her, he won't mind.
LOL - see how he likes a dose of his own medicine.
Ah, and why not tell your male friend that you've provided her with this advice. Perhaps that will help him see what a total dick-head he is. Although I doubt it.

I think most chaps prefer a girl who can do 'heels over head'.Originally posted by MaryPoppins View PostSounds like an odd ploy to me, and not really the way to ascertain how she really feels about him. Even if she is head over heels, this will probably put her off a bit. He sounds like a tit.
