win-lose bargaining

The result of a possible win-win scenario in which the clear beneficiary of the win-win scenario fails to keep their end of the bargain, resulting later into a win-lose scenario.

Commonly found with people who fail to transition a informal verbal agreement to a formal written agreement, backstabbers, double-cross someone, or dealing with someone with a "do nothin', get everythin'" mentality.
1.) When Paul failed to wash the dishes all week after his father let him go to a party the previous week, his father realized that he was a victim of win-lose bargaining.

2.) Mike had been involved with some win-lose bargaining when he and Ken agreed to split the bill only for Ken to leave without notice, leaving Mike to pay for the large meal.

3.) When someone agrees to give another head after they themselves have been given head, but then leaves, the giver of head is on the losing side of the win-lose bargaining.

University of Bahrain

A university which is racist and discriminates against non-bahrainis. A university where you actually must hunt for a good doctor otherwise you're fucked. Everywhere you go, you'll see a wave of black abayas and they nearly always take all the seats in the bus and if you're a male, you'll have to wait for the next bus. A university where people smoke in front of the "no smoking" sign. Its cheap tho...

Oh almost forgot, no one knows how to drive here.
Guy 1: You going to apply to University of Bahrain after school?
Guy 2: I don't know man, I heard they're racist but it's cheap as fuck.
