Well I can see both sides to this.  She’s doing her best in all her other classes, but not Math.  That’s pretty good.

On the other side of that is a dad who wants to see his money make a difference.  All A’s are good, but if she’s in a community college, that sometimes isn’t good enough to get you into a real Uni.  If she’s already in a real Uni, well, one shouldn’t make too much of a difference.  Then again it can.

Hope she gets out of the slump though, just be there as a pal and maybe study buddy.  Sounds like she’s smart enough to figure things out so if you work together instead of you teaching her that might be better.

Keep in mind Tith that you’re never going to find someone that doesn’t have SOME traits that annoy you. I’m not saying you should settle for someone you don’t really like, but I am saying make sure that your standards aren’t so high that they’re unreachable.

RE and Ninty got to the comments before I did. Just be there for her and help her if she needs it.

Are ALL these girls REALLY that bad? If you start to think that you really like a girl then you realize that you hate when she does ----, then make a list of the pros and cons about her. I’m sure that with someone you will find more pros than cons and then you can start to look past the little annoying features.

Yeah, I understand that about the money thing, I just think he went overboard. They’re the really overprotective type, too (more than mine). Well anyway, her dad has been helping her and I think she’s working on it right now because she’s got another test tomorrow. She did kinda sucky on the recent Spanish test, too, and got an earful of that this afternoon from her mom. She said her mom doesn’t like her... really. I dunno. We both have a bunch of crap to deal with but we seem to help each other get through it pretty well. I didn’t do well on it either, at least until the restest where I got a B. We’ve agreed to work really hard on that for the next test and of course the final.

As for the thing about girls, I dunno, I’ve thought about the being picky thing but I’m not sure. I know even my best friend has some things about her that annoys me, yet I would have gone out with her had I gotten the chance. It’s just there are certain things that I try to aim for and while there’s not a big shortage on ones that would fit those standards, it seems like most of the time I’m not attracted to them, but rather the ones that I wouldn’t really want to go out with. It’s weird.
