Date for debs

LegacyUser

Ok its less than a week to my debs and I dont have a date {need a woman}. Ive asked all girls I know, friends, friends of friends, friends relations etc.

Going with one of my own relatives aint an option nor is just living with it.

Any suggestion on how to get a date quick. A lot of reasons Im getting is "too expensive and Id have to rent a dress"

Sleepy

Have you a sister anywhere near your own age? You could always ask one of her friends.

Maybe you could ask a friend of one of your friends' dates?

Goin stag ain't so bad, did it for a couple of college balls and tbh, they were probably the best ones I went to.

babyhack

i think at this stage u may have to go stag
A week for the girl to say yes get a dress get her hair done (and the rest) bit of a long shot

to alot of girls the debs is not just a night out on the piss its a night to get all done up and have to chance to be a princess for 1 night

so for a girl to get all thats ready and done in a week

Good Luck my friend

Sleepy

You could always post an open invite on boards.ie and take the first girl who's prepared to go and has a dress at the ready!

I think that'd be a wild thing to do, would love to do something similar myself. It'd certainly be an amazing story to tell if ye ended up getting together!

I think you just scared off (most) of the women on boards.

Sleipnir

You could offer to pay for their dress etc?

what harm can it do its like a blind date Boards.ie style
not saying i would be doing it (I am happy at the mo)
but would still make a good story

Sleepy

I was actually going to do it once when I'd a spare ticket to Dylan Moran but I didn't have enough time to get to a net connection...

I think this would be a great plan.

toxic_angel

the whole blind date thing of the net is dubious ..... safety issues for him and her.....

but if he is genuine then surely there is a cousin or a neighbour who had their own debs in the past 3/4 years.... theyd still have their dresses most girls keep theirs.... ive 2!!!!

the hair/nail/makeup/ issue can be pretty much sorted if they book either today or tomorrow so mr guest sir get off line and go outside and find someone willing be prepared to get shot down just say ok and find another girl.....

a friend of mine was asked by a random guy on the street to go to his debs 4 days before hand she met up with him everyday before it to get to know him and they had a blast

good luck

ps wherebouts are you if any girls here are willing ( and brave enough) to accept the blind debs date

you have left it awfully late, unless she already has a dress she wants to wear then you're not going to find someone.
Who are your mates going with?
Do their girls have friends?

Jim

I meant the mentioning of "Story to tell your grandkids" bit.

Idbatterim

If your paying for the night i can guarantee id look like a woman, but no more, there wont be any of your fancy drinks either , unfourtunately ill still sound and act like a male, but desperate times call for desperate measures, and if any of your mates start giving you a slagging, ill open a can of hermaphrodite power on their ass! BTW I have been told im a bit of a metrosexual and have a cute ass! Oh i would need a photo though!

The Song Thrush

You don't need to bring anyone.... besides, if you bring someone who doesn't know anybody, you'll have to babysit her all night. You'll just be hanging with your mates anyway, nobody will give a crap if you go alone. Unless you're really hot and popular....

Or do you just want to take a girl so you can get some 'action' later that night...?

Good Luck with finding a date. When I went to my Debs a couple of my friends didn't have dates (they didn't hang out with guys really) so basically, I set them all up with my ex-boyfriends mates. Seriously, about 4/5 of them ended up with dates for the debs because of it.

Do any of your mates have girlfriends? See if they would work something out for you. A LOT of girls would give anything to go to a debs and its much more fun if you're going as a group with people who know each other.

JohnCleary

Seriously how can you be so DESPERATE for a date for the debs that you resort to using the internet for a date. How f*cking ugly ARE you?

I am MAN

I didnt bother with the debs its a big fat waste of money especially for girls.

YEEE finally someone came out and said it. You don't have to go :rolleyes: I just don't understand the big fuss made over the Debs. It's for the chicks not for the guys so i can't figure out why guys get into a state over it. Just don't go if you don't want to ( I'm going to be Mr Popular now! :eek: ) Don't worry about it.

BuffyBot

I know I didn't go to mine. Didn't bother me in the least*. It's one night, and hardly worth getting in a state over! How would you explain away this girl when asked? You're hardly going to tell everyone you found her on the internet...that would hardly impress them. Plus she's not going to like being lied about all night.



*Then again, I pretty much hated most of the people in my year

Just a little bit second-hand! She's practically brand new!!

your obviously fat otr a lorer

DapperGent

I didn't go to either of my own debs becuase I had the hate for all the people.

I went to some chicks debs though. That's becuase I'm teh sexy.

They were still shít though. Why not just skip it? Don't tell anyone you're skipping it cos you can't find a bird though, they'll think you're a total loser.

Was this helpful? I think not.

cormie

I'm sure both guys who need a girl have already paid for their tickets and stuff so I suggest you just ask around. You must know somebody who has a debs dress and doesn't need to get their hair done and all that Jazz? I'm sure you have some friends in your school, I suggest you ask their date to ask a friend, this way you will know the friend and both girls will know eachother. I also suggest you all go to one persons house, this will avoid awkward situations. Appearance doesn't really matter but if you don't get any tell tale signs from the girl that she likes you, don't be all over her. Be grateful she came with you and treat her with respect. You don't have to buy her 20 drinks or anything, one will do. Don't act like you were desperate for her. If you can't get a date, go solo, nobody will notice and nobody will care and if they are doing photo shoots, go up and get one of yourself;)

I wouldn't go down the net route. She wouldn't like you telling people you found her on the net and I'm sure you wouldn't like telling people. Other than that you are going to have to lie and lies make baby jesus cry. Don't stress over it whatever you do.

I am MAN

JohnCleary - Sorry but I am neither fat or a loner I prefer to think I made a sensible decision I know lads who blew close to 500 euro on the whole night and for what? I was glad to see the back of alot of dickheads in my year and after returning from a sunny country it was the last thing I wanted to go to!

Even if you feel stressed over it now I dont think it will be the type of thing you will luck back on and dwell over it. You are going to have more important balls to attend over the years!

Evil prick.

haha, *evil prick*

well, i kinda have to agree with him even though he's going for the whole, i'm a cool prick thing. but... it would be a pitty/desperation date.

whats the harm in going on your own and taking someone elses date home at the end of the night?

JohnCleary

I've seen people go alone before and have the best night of their life because they dont have to 'babysit' their date all night, so they just get fcuked drunk and dance on the table!

cormie

any pictures of yourself john?

JohnCleary

Talking to me?

Plenty

cormie

Care to share? You shouldn't be making statements like that. If that was the reason they couldn't get a date, it would do no good for their confidence.

Attach a picture of yourself to your next post, just out of interest.

i'll point out that garth V is ment to look great in a dress

the mans got a point.....

country_gurl

I'm a girl and i didnt go to my debs... waste of money when i cud have 3 decent nights out 4 it and still have change... and i did have them. And before John Cleary says "its coz ur ugly" i had a date to bring, my boyfriend of 2 years. Guys who are having trouble getting dates, dont worry, either dont go or bring a guy mate... good hard session of drinking and no buying corsage ****. Besta luck

Na, he's not an evil prick....just a complete tosser.

I wasnt mad about going to my debs for the simple reason that I thought a majority of people in my year were complete arsewipes. I still went, even though I was pretty stressed before hand because I thought I wasnt going to have a date to go with...

Still the date I eventually managed to get to go was one of the hotest girls there and that night kicked off probably the funest weekend I've ever had. Yes it cost a fortune but was worth every penny, lots of booze and sex for me! I went out with the girl for about eight months after that...

My point is, dont give up looking, and you should try and go if you can...

Just when I've come around to the opinion the entire human race isn't a complete waste of space, I read this! Good one, John - I'd say that made you feel really big.

So can we get a pic of john or what?

cormie

cool thanks,
and now maybe one of yourself? Come on, you shouldn't be ashamed of it. Judging by your posts your a hottie? I'd like to see for myself.

Years ago, on a pirate radio station in Cork, a guy rang in, and said he needed a date for his Grads. It ended up being a competition with girls ringing in to say/sing why it should be them. The listenders then had to vote who should go with him. The guy rang after it all happened thanking them for a great time.

Not having a date for the Grads is no biggy. i wish i went alone as all they gus who did had better nights. if there is one true thing JohnCleary said, its that the babysitting of the girl is a pian. As for the rest of what he said, he is obviously a very angry bitter and lonely individual.

Gordon

Gosh, someone brought the thread back on topic. Thanks gimmick.

DapperGent

If Beruthiel was around she never would have let it get to this kind of sorry state Gordon.

Shape up.

Gordon

Yeah good point, you're now banned from PI Dapper. Put your coat on the hook and hang your head in shame while I place the special hat with a big "D" on you.

I went to a Debs last night, it was great fun. I've been to two already but this was the best. The girl I went with is great and her buds and everyone there seemed to be really nice and friendly. Had good fun and even though tux's are not for me at all, and I was really uncomfortable in it, and I had to pay €75 to wear it for 20 hours, it was worth it. I was the "guest" so I didn't really know anyone there, but I had a great time. You will either like it or dislike it, it's worth the chance, what else are you going to do on the night? You should live life for the moment. Get as much experiences in as possible, you will regret not going if you hear it was fun, but at least if you go you gave it a shot.

Good luck in the quest to find a girl/guy those who are looking.

Mutant_Fruit

I was in the same position about 2 hours ago. Debs on thursday, no date organised. So i took the plunge, and asked a girl from college, and she said yes. Bear in mind i've only known her for about 2 weeks or so. If she had said no, i was gonna ask 2 other people from college.... in it for one, in it for all

At the worst i would have looked like a crazy guy, so i had nothing to lose. Try it yourself! If theres anyone you think might say yes, ask em!
