She wants to have her cake and eat it too.

The saying is "Eat her cake and have it." It doesn't make sense your way, and I don't think it's an appropriate metaphor in the first place.

Re: Girl Advice

Okay..use "Have it both ways." That one is very appropriate, though I admit I don't use the 'cake' metaphor much so it may be phrased wrong.

Re: Girl Advice

Nah, the way you said it is what most people say. They don't realise it's a corruption of the original saying, but they still wonder why it doesn't make sense.

And upon reviewing the saying, I've decided that it is, in fact, and appropriate metaphor.

As you were.

Re: Girl Advice

To be honest I don't know what Arse was thinking when he said it was wrong.

You can't eat something, and then have it.

Thats why it works as a metaphor. As in, she's trying to eat her cake, and then have it, but she can't.

Shes trying to... eat... Tyler... so to speak, and still have KE. But she can't.

This is one of the many reasons you should never, ever give advice to anyone ever, ever again.
