She then said, "you know you have to all out for my birthday with flowers, balloons and gifts since its a special event" (she turns 30 - she beat me by one month). Don't know what to make of that - but I will see how she is feeling when her birthday draws near. Any thoughts on that?
If you want to gain her friendship, treat her like a friend. Would you try to make a good friend feel special on their 30th? get them something you knew they wanted?
