    Does anyone esle see scoring random people as repulsive ?

    It's 5am and this came into my head :p It's just I remember in school being asked would I 'meet' shuch and such, even though I would be too shy to do anything like that, it has always repulsed me. The idea of scoring with random people you meet with no sort of relationship between them just seems wrong,, but everyone seems happy to do it.

    Any feel the same way ? Or just let the flaming begin :D

    I don't see anything repulsive about it. It's just a bit of fun.

    Maybe you lack the ability to seperate the physical from the emotional?

    or maybe the ability to seperate physical and emotional is a symptom of something wrong today?

    either way it can be a bit of fun

    never got into it meself, then again I was going with a tool for just over 7 years so didnt get the chance to score a bit more. Broke up with her and decided a one night stand be lovely, poor me decided to leave me spare bike helmet in yer ones house so had to call back a few days later :( not the best two weeks of me life I must say lol. In a relationship over 3 years now and love her so Im happy. If people are into casual sex then leave em off. Dont bother me at all.

    absolutely no problem with the general concept and action... few unpleasant consequences in my past, but all good.

    what i do hate though is that word 'scoring'. i duno, im old now i guess. we used to meet. now the kids score. just sounds weird.

    so i do....

    I've always been the scoring type. Although I realise there is an emotional reason for this, I've always seen it as a sort of sport, where I am selling myself as well as I can.

    It's fun, it's innocent, and some of the best moments of my life have come from it.

    You have nothing to fear. And you won't regret having scored a few women. Certainly when you're an old man and you're reviewing your life, you will have fond memories of the young ones you had a bit of fun with.

    /Have drank three bottles of wine. Forgive me for my honesty.

    For the first few years in college I was, but I met my g.f in third year and that put an end to it.

    If you don't get it out of the way you will always think about the women you could have been with. I would hate to have only ever been with one woman, and I'm sure my g.f is happy I learned a few tricks before getting with her.


    I give you the advice my dad said to me and my brother "remember kids, sometimes you have to do the ugly ones to appreciate the good looking ones! just don't end up marrying one of the ugly ones like I did"

    You must have been really hard up for a spare condom.

    I don't see anything wrong with it, as in immoral. But I do find it a bit repulsive. I don't like the idea of getting physically close to a complete stranger, for me the natural sequence of these things is stranger -> aquaintance -> friend ->"more than a friend-> all that physical shite. Skipping steps just seems weird and unnatural!



    Beisdes, people these days don't seem to know of stranger danger!

    you forgot the end of the sequence, it actually goes:

    stranger -> aquaintance -> friend ->"more than a friend-> -> all that physical ****e -> -> bastard ex who tried to sleep with my sister/mother/ best friend (or any other thing we did to mess up the relationship)

    I absolutly love scoring randomers. The excitment, the raw energy, the anonimity, new smells, new tastes...... love it. Every night of the week if I could.

    Maybe you should try to loosen up a bit.

    Twins. Nice.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,543 ✭✭✭JerryHandbag


    I remember I scored a point in my first and only GAA match. That was a nice score.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,276 ✭✭✭Alessandra


    Sure it's a bit of craic. Give it a go.

    I wouldn't say its replusive and I've certainly done my fair share. I just don't see any point in it to be honest thou. Whats the point in kissing someone you don't at least like - which kinda means knowing them at least a bit.

    Scoring randomers is better than no scoring.

    Who says people who don't like scoring total strangers aren't loosened up already? It's just a matter of taste. If you said you didn't like icecream I wouldn't tell you to loosen up a bit and try it.

    Can't say I really care about it. Whatever happens happens like.

    At least it's better than "shifting" and less confusing than "meeting". :o


  • Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I've never done it.

    Not that I find it repulsive, just the way I am. I have to know somebody before I kiss them. I just need some sort of connection other than looks or drunkness. But that's just me!

    Boo-urns!

    Nothing wrong with saying you got the shift!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,590 ✭✭✭Pigwidgeon


    Nothing wrong with it, you never know what's going to come of it.
    I met my current OH of a year by randomly scoring him one night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,038 ✭✭✭Seloth


    I was just thinking about today when I was 16 in "Peace Park" in Cork and teens my age then would just go around to randomers and such((Metalheads,Goths,Emo's,Skaters,scene types etc that is)).

    Every time I go out on the town (or whatever), I chat to strangers. It's really fun. You meet some lovely people, some assholes, some people that know your friends, some people you were at the same gig as or the same class at one stage and never talked to. The good, the bad and the ugly. Sometimes a sexual attraction occurs from this or grows from it and sometimes you feel like acting on it. Sometimes a friendship grows from it and you act on that. Dunno how many beautiful girls of kissed or amazing friends I've made over the last while but I can safely say that when I look back on 2009, one of the best things I'll remember is taking every opportunity to chat to a stranger and allow the interaction to play itself into something or nothing. Kissing strangers can be fun and can be awful. I judge my interactions case by case but I never say no to the idea of an interaction itself. What occurs subsequently is down to chance, choice and, sometimes, a bita luck.

    100% agree! :)

    Random banter is the best!

    Jesus dude, that's virgin talk. If the offers are any good, go for it. Don't do it to yourself. You'll be pissed off when you're 24 that you turned down good offers.

    I hate the woed "scoring" too. It's sooooo American.
    Meet, shift or will ya be with her.:p
    Shift is only in there due to the line "If ya can't lift her, don't shift her", a rule which some of us don't have the looks to live by.:P
