    this usually wouldnt bother a normal,non-neurotic, female, but unfortunately thats not me.so this is it....i went out last night to the local pub/niteclub, it was kind of unexpected because my friends just called up to my house and whisked me away, without letting me get dolled up and all, so i end up going to the niteclub in f'ucking baggy jeans and bright orange shirt i bought for 4 euro, in a charity shop.:mad:

    on the way i got soaked as i had no umbrella and was totally sober even after having a fair bit to drink so i was not in the mood to be in the club so under-dressed and everybody staring at me.one thing i was happy about was that no guy would look twice at me considering what i was wearing, cos i was not in the mood.then my friend comes over and tells me the bouncer likes me and wants my number, which she gives without my permission.he comes over and starts talking.i cannot say no to anyone so im all yeah ill call blah blah..i am so stupid.....anyone have any excuse i can give if he calls??i hate this! im terrible at just saying no as i dont like hurting peoples feelings....im 18 and he looked about 27.....christ what if i see him around......hes cute but not the kind of guy i would go out with.and he is too old for me.s'hit!! thats why i dont like living in a small town..im bound to see him somewhere....
    :dunno:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    Yeah, but he's already seen you, hasn't he?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭munkeehaven


    yes thats true..i think ill just keep my phone off for a week or something. :dunno: you see this is my problem, i never seem to catch the attention of guys i actually am attracted to.its always guys i have no interest in, and that is frustrating....:rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    I feel your pain, every guy thats ever had a crush on me, I just didnt like...then again, maybe thats because I'm a straight male...

    Here's a plan, pretend to be swedish whenever you pick up your phone, he'll think your friend gave him the wrong number

    he wants you because you were unlike every other girl in the club - yourself.

    just get utterly twisted tonight and head back there dressed like a slapper. fall around the place and snog a couple of random dudes.
    problem solved


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭munkeehaven


    he is only there on a friday. i think i am never going in there again anyway, im just not a ''club'' person(well the **** clubs at least), i am more into gigs and s'hit like that.but my friends would never go with me to any gigs or the more unusual hangouts as they are all r'n'b types who love to dance, and are quite good at it. me....i have to be very drunk to dance..and even when i am , im thinking wtf am i doing here?! smalltown clubs give me the shivers!...you go in and its like
    a deja'vu from last week!

    Tell him you're going out with dod, and you are therefore unavailable. Then arrange a hot date with dod in order to give some substance to the masquerade. Everyone is a winner, and your bouncer problem is no more.

    or else the bouncer comes looking for dod, to fight for the honour of his lady friend...

    that is a possiblity as this bouncer said he was a fitness instructor, he was really tall and had a schwarznegger-type body.im not really into that, i like my skinny boys.

    Leave your phone on, and only answer calls from numbers you know.

    dont mean to pry, munkeehaven, but was the friend of yours who gave the number one of those people who tends to go on moronic quests to fix all their single friends up with people in order to make herself feel better, or does she just not see the problem in handing your number out to strangers?

    Do what lump says, and if you havent already, hit your mate a slap and make sure you dont end up in the same position again...:D

    well..she is just really confident and things i would find really embarrassing she would take in her stride, like she is the one that when we go out has no problem talking to guys and stuff like that,whereas i am the one that is usually a bit more subdued and generally will only talk to a guy if i want to.last night we were talking to these guys in the pub and i soon found out they were fairly idiotic.my friend was all up and talking to them enthusiastically whereas i stopped talking to them once i realised they were not for me.they were in their 20's but were fairly juvenile, they were trying to find out which one of us were virgins and guess what they said, out of the 3 of us, they said that i was..because i was the only one wearing jeans, the other 2 were wearing skirts.i find that strange.

    you were right to consider them morons.
    I must say, I've heard of some bad chat up lines, but most are funny... asking who's a virgin has to be the worst I've ever heard.

    <sarcasm>its a well known fact that virgins are not allowed to wear skirts by law, however people who have had sex are free to do so</sarcasm>

    i phucking hate chat up lines they are bloody useless.going out these days where i live is like a cow market. boys and girls are passed around like hankies.uugh. i cant wait till i move out in september to the greener hills of cork......

    haha that's cute. :)

    the thing that bites me about this whole thread and your predicament is the bouncer f*ckhole trying it on with disco chicks, 18 year old disco chicks, what a hero like


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,105 ✭✭✭Tommy Vercetti


    if he calls, just answer the phone and pretend to bouncerman that your friend gave him a wrong number


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,574 ✭✭✭✭Victor


    Tell him straight out that it was out of line for your friend to give him your number. Save his feelings by telling him he's a nice enough person but (a) you are seeing someone else (b) not interested in seeing anyone at the moment.

    Or just change your number.

    And stop wearing wet t-shirts*

    *may not.

    tell him your a lesbian, going by the description you gave in the first post I'm sure he'll belive you.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭munkeehaven


    hmmm..pretend to be a lesbian..which one?? lipstick or butch??..choices.

    "I don't want to hurt you, but I will."

    Body builder or not, a kick in the right places will never fail.

    You know those Vodafone machines in pubs, airports and the like that let you send a free text message? You can put in any sender's number you like, so they can be completely anonymous. As a wise man once said, there's nothing like revenge for getting back at people.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 687 ✭✭✭kano476


    i say take a chance. wtf have u got to lose?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,828 ✭✭✭Healio


    if he ever calls to the door just say 'not tonite!'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,819 ✭✭✭rymus


    on the first date, leave it in no way uncertain that you base your very existance on the teachings of Helena Bobbit. (Was helena actually her name?)

    Failing that, arrange a date with dod and then videotape him having the spuds kicked outta him when jealous bouncer spots him. I need something to submit to Kirsty.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭munkeehaven


    i am curious who is helena bobbit?

    Didn't she cut her husband's cock off? Then she drove off with it and threw it out of the car window.

    also it was Lorena Bobbit not Helena Bobbit

    A woman friend of mine went to New York and was stalked by a dwarf, you think you got problems? eh?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭munkeehaven


    hmm that sounds a bit stressful alright. the thing is that i seem to attract weird people. i think this is partly due to the fact of ''like attracts like''..but the weirdos i like are always taken:dunno:

    you sound like the type of girl I would be inclined to go for in a club. But then again, I'm usually far to shy to approach gals I like, I don't know if I would like you but still. I always wear baggies myself to clubs, so keep it up. When you say dolled up, what do you mean? what would you usually wear to impress guys? I like a girl who can look good without having her whole body on display.

    As for the bouncer, I think 27 is too old for an 18 year old. You're only 18! Don't think just cuz your suddenly able to get into pubs and clubs your mentally prepared for that kinda involvement. Just tell him honestly you think he is too old and you didnt permit your friend to give your number away. He will understand.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭munkeehaven


    i dont usually get ''dolled up''(ie caked in makeup, belt skirts and boobs hanging out) but my friends tend to dress up a lot so i usually look like a homeless person when compared to them. the thing is i hate cheesy pop nite clubs but i go cos they are my friends and there is nowhere else to go untill i move away. i know what ya mean about being too shy. i always get depressed after going out thinking that no guy likes me and all that. you see i was in a 3 yr relationship from when i was 13 till i was 17..well thats 4 yrs..so basically im traumatised and not used to being single..im finding it hard to imagine that i could ever be with another guy...you know what i mean? i broke up with the guy and im not attracted to him any more..we are still freinds but sometimes i think is he the only one mad enough to like me?! sad i know, but i have issues:dunno:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,012 ✭✭✭munkeehaven


    i just find that if you want to have a guy interested in you, you have to dress up all revealing and the like, which i hate as i feel so fake and crap.ive only done that once but decided that i dont phucking care and am just going to wear what i want. the kind of guy i want though wouldnt be hanging around where i go unless like me he has no choice for the moment!. when i was younger at discos i always said ''no'' when i was asked to ''shift'' a guy, i just can never bring myself to just lock mouths with someone in a split second, first i gotta hear them speak.....and of course if im attracted to a guy sexually all sorts of dirty thoughts go through my mind, but i'd still want to speak to him first before any thing else......im in no way ''romantic'' or ''girly''..i just kind of tend to prefer guys that are intelligent and if they are good=looking, not total empty headed narcissists.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,844 ✭✭✭✭cormie


    I always think to myself that I am in totally the wrong place. I feel like an outcast when surrounded by all them people. I doubt I will ever meet a girl who I have things in common with in places like that. But then I think, well if I'm here, then there is a chance some girl will be in the same situation as me. For a start I can't stand the music. I live in a small town myself and one of the places we end up going (because there is nowhere else to go) the same dj plays the same songs over and over. I'm pretty big into counting crows and when I hear Mr. Jones played every week it really pees me off. And you get all these drunken fools prancin' around with their clean white shirts, recently shaved faces and mohawked spiked hair. The only yhing they ever seem to ask you is "are you drunk? I'm locked man!" I'm like yeah well done. You were locked last week and I bet your gonna go to the same chipper stumble home the same way and do it all again next week. and never get sick of it! I don't drink myself and when people see me with a pint of water they are like "what are you drinking water for!!!?" even some people I know have been like "why aren't you drinking, we've gotta get you drinking" eughhh. It's so repetitive. My brother was walking up town once with our friend and they saw this guy they usually see out in one of the clubs and every time he sees our friend he will hug him or whatever so my friend goes "lets see if he will hug me now in the daytime" and he went up to hug him and your man backed well away. Fortunately the people I know are pretty cool. They don't come out allot but they are individuals and don't follow the crowd.

    I met a girl in a pub where I live. I was shocked, she loved all the music I was into. She was french which makes it more understandable. But yeah, she was into Leonard Cohen, Dave Matthews Band, Django Reinhardt, Joan Baez. I was amazed, I finally met a girl with decent taste in music (I think it says allot about a person what kinda music they are into), Unfortunately she was going back to France a week later :( I'll probably never see her again. Fortunately though I met a reeeeally cool gal in that place I was talking about. We get on really well when we met we were talking solid since about 12 till 5am, I walked her home and she invited me in and we just sat talking till 5. I didn't even score her at this stage which added to the coolness. I got a goodbye kiss at 5 though;) Her music taste is different, different to most of the people out in these places and even different to mine.

    I do believe physical attraction is important. My mother even said it, for a relationship to work and last there has to be sexual attraction if both parties are sexual. What all this has to do with the bouncer? I don't know!

    thats bollox. you can keep a guy interested by talking to him. works on me :). a girl doesnt have to look like a 25c tart to get my interest. they have to be individual, something which slappers arnt.

    The age formula - Half his age plus seven => Him 22 , her 18

    Or just tell him that the reason your friend gave him your number is because she had the hots for him..
