Friday Night Rings

    Here is a good one.

    My mate Aimee works in the local jewellery shop. Over the past few months she has noticed numerous men coming in and buying fairly cheap wedding type rings. This went on for a while, eventually a sort of civil fella was buying a ring and she asked if he would mind telling her what it was for.

    Yer man give her a wink and says, "it's a friday night ring, I'll put it on before heading out." Turns out that men are finding it much easier to "pull burds" when they give the impression that they are married.

    I spoke too a male friend about this and he says, "yeah, love. Friday night rings"

    Classic.

    If that's true then there must be a lot of pathetic women out there!

    Yes.

    Forbidden fruit and all that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,252 ✭✭✭Wompa1


    Yes.

    Forbidden fruit and all that.

    it's not forbidden though, is it? They can still go for it....it's more the temptation of becomming a home wrecker?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,104 ✭✭✭easyeason3


    Bullsh!t.
    Men don't become more attractive if they have a ring on their finger. If you're an ugly looking pr!ck with the personality of a wet dishcloth then no ring will sort you out.

    Alright thanks for that advise. For a few seconds I thought this might be a way for me to score in coppers but no. So its back to internet dating and how to become a pick up artist books for me.


    :(

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,039 ✭✭✭Seloth


    Nah I know of a fella who does this!

    Woman folk generally are attracted to men folk who have other woman folk around them.

    Both woman try to get with fellas who have GF/Wifes etc more so then single fellas or something along those lines

    Pulling in coppers eh? Try having your penis coming out the zipper of your trousers then thrust in the direction of the girl you like.

    Reminds me of one Valentines disco thing I went to years ago. One of those traffic light ones, basically Green meant you were available, amber meant you were not entirely available or taken and red meant off limites as already in a relationship.
    I followed the theory that women couldn't resist the idea of the red light carrying guy who basically should have belonged to someone else. I was only about 18 or something but I shifted 2 different girls on the night, both of which were wearing green circles.
    Now, that was when I was only 18 so I imagine if you apply the same theory to women in ther twenties, then you'd be right in thinking its a faster way of accessing snatch!

    I can be, but I also have the tendancy to be rather brash when it comes to tongue in cheek remarks such as that.

    Sincerest apologies for any discomfort caused m'lady!

    Civil, how?

    It’s a psychology known as the "Wedding ring effect" which, though it hasn’t exactly undergone rigorous scientific testing, holds that unavailable dudes attract more attention from ladies.

    You've got a point. A fella with a girl is ten times more attractive to other women.

    Maybe to you. Not to all girls. What's the point chasing someone that's already taken? There are plenty hot single guys out there.....

    Penis out, can do that!

    Is this in a Ferrari pitstop manner or just generally hanging out?

    This new years eve could be the start of a whole new year for me. (and well everyone else's because its the end of and start of a new... oh whatever!)

    I presume the logic is that if they were that great they wouldnt be single.

    Toot on boy! Toot on!

    And generally hanging out is the way to go, keep it casual like that's it in all it's glory, ain't no big deal to me to have it out, what ya think ladies?

    I guess some people would think this way. I'd still prefer to chat up a guy without a wedding ring tbh.

    Well, how about if he's a "ugly looking prick" with a great personality?

    Or a great looking guy with a "personality of a wet dishcloth"?

    Who you taking home?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,397 ✭✭✭✭FreudianSlippers


    Why would one buy a new ring every week? Just buy the one and wear that over and over again!

    Anyway, I do believe that women are more attracted to men that are already in relationships though. Not sure what the deal is.. they can smell it or something lol

    I think it's less that he's unavailable than he's already shown himself to be a worthy mate, proven in the field, so to speak.
