Alone in a bar

duffman13 · 2014-11-01 21:37:13

So I'm supposed to meet a load of people in a bar now and I'm on my Toblerone. No seats and standing at the bar between a couple and two lads taking selfies of themselves. How do I pass the time with feeling like a total loner!!!

Just enjoy a few drinks on your own, don't pay any attention to what you think other people are saying or thinking about you, cause there not, and get a drink that you have never had before, you ll never know that could be the highlight of ure night.

Right acquaintances now after this calamity, no, I need to start a new thread. If your meeting in a bar how late is acceptable to arrive after your agreed arrival time!

How dare two lads take selfies of themselves while you are obviously busy on your phone registering your disgust about being in a bar all alone, honestly you'd think they would have more respect and not totally disregard your feeling like that

I despise tardiness, when you arrange a time you be there at that time.

Break out the guitar (that you just happened to have with you) and start singing Wonderwall by Oasis repeatedly - that instantly makes you the coolest guy in the place and will bring the ladies flocking in droves.
