Think I just got mugged off for a 10 pound bottle of wine, good job I went for the cheap one..A girl chatted me up outside the local pub, she seemed the fairly innocent type..everything seemed great apart from her over loud drunk friend who suggest I buy a bottle..
when we went inside the pub it started going downhill, I dunno whether she was showing off to her friend or what but she slid me her phone number..but then some guy turned up, she had previously told me she got dumped..I don't know what the truth behind her situation was, I think he looked a bigger mug than me anyway..I think she maybe a wolf in sheeps clothing..
I think the wise thing to do is to stay clear, but I have this number and I curious whether to ask her what all that was about over facebook. I am not a beginner when it comes to women, Ive had my share of girlfriends and sometimes played a few games myself.
Ah well I guess I was just happy to be back out there on the scene and making the effort to find a new gf after a few months off, 10 pound didnt kill me for an entertaining night, I had a little extra money to play with this weekend, gotta just take it as another lesson
What did you expect to get with a 10 pound bottle of wine? Maybe her number was all she had to offer tonight.
Im just wondering who the guy was,she slipped me the number while he was there lol they were a bit dodgy, you would think so if you were there..I may talk to her to find out what the score was though
Could have been an over-protective brother....LOL
If she's not married or in a committed relationship then there's nothing wrong with playing the field.
Call her up and ask her. However, who's to say if she'll tell the truth anyway.
Is she worth the effort? There's an awful lot of fish in that big ol' sea.
yeh, lot's more fish in the sea and maybe pubs is not the right part of the sea, meaning you will get better results in a classier place - like what? night classes? I don't know.
I agree, and that's a great point! That's one thing that always made me laugh when talking to my friends. They always complained that the men they met drank too much, but isn't funny that they were always going to bars to find men? LOL
yup good point...I never took meeting anyone in a bar very seriously and made a point to never hand out my no. there...you're a young good looking guy (according to your pic) and so I'm sure you'll have no problem meeting a nice person and not when you/they are under the influence of alcohol. that's just my 2 cents.
I only had 1.5 drinks..I haven't got enough money yet to go to Classy places! I don't do pubs a lot..maybe when my adsense rises I can take dates better places, its only a modest adsense at the moment lol(threshold minimum)lol
And Richie...you don't have to spend a lot of money (or any money) on a date...go for coffee....have a picnic - it's summer (make it potluck)...walk in a park...hang out....or share whatever interest you might have in common e.g. cycling or whatever...basically it's just nice talking and getting to know someone if there's an interest (especially before you spend any of your hard earned dollars - younger people would understand that I'm sure)
I agree. There are tons of activities you can do together than do not require money.
Yes, that is a great idea.
Actually, usually (not always) expensive dates equal boring guys. While more original (most of the time cheaper dates) equal interesting guys, those who have the imagination to keep you going whithout all the "fiddle di-di" that you find in expensive places...
give me her number... let me call her and clear it up for you
As I wrote that last statement, I thought "I should write a hub about that"....then I remembered......I have! LOL I have a hub called "Date Night Activities". It's a list of activities you can do, some that cost money, some that do not. Some are more appropriate if you're already in a relationship with someone and you're having a night out, but something may spark some ideas.
I'm guessing the girl had the same expectations or she wouldn't have been there.
logic I am here
and have common sense
marry me?
Hey, wait a minute...you said you wanted to marry me, Kim
And we're not even in a bar. Why you....
Just kidding
No Kimberly, you have uncommon sense.
As long as I don't have to spend over 10 pounds on the wine!
I wasn't expecting to get anything, I'm not desperate, but a lot of women tend to be gold diggers(not all) that was my point..It didn't bother me cause it was a cheap wine.
Lol, that's what I was thinking while reading through this...she was expecting to get something alright, free wine! Yes, even though I'm female I will admit that many females tend to be gold diggers, or at very least don't mind collecting a free drink here and there from willing males they will probably never even think about again. Keep trying, there are those of us out there who expect a man rather than a paycheck in a relationship .
ahahaha Another victim of women looking for free booze. You can tell which ones are serious about staying with ya and wanting to talk and the ones that are a tad drunk and looking for more booze. Oh well theres plenty more fish in the sea.

Why on earth do you think 60 year old wrinkly fat bald men get 21 year old girls?Even if it were “natural,” there’s nothing innocent or harmless or healthy about older men pursuing ceaselessly younger women. The cost is high to everyone involved. While a few young women may be attracted to much...

I know this is a problem that comes up every now and then with women. It's always justified as "men are visual creatures, they're always looking," and the female partner shouldn't be so insecure. But I tend to think there's a little more to it than that. To women: Regardless of how you or...

Men Don’t Understand Women. What Does A Woman Really Want?
