To Blind Date, or not to Blind Date, that is the question....

    So heres the juice folks,

    After being single for a year my mates woman has decided to try and set me up with her neighbour.

    A blind date has been set up for tomorrow night. I'm only just after finding out about this. In the words of my mate "she's right up your street, blonde, a few kids but up for the carry on and a bit of a dirty girl..." What a picture he paints :rolleyes:

    Now the dilema is that also that same night an old friend of mine is having a leaving do. Whilst I'd feel some guilt for blowing her off (bad turn of phrase i know) my friend is only moving to Dublin from Fermanagh, so it's not as if she's going to the other side of the world.

    Also I've never believed in blind dates, the only person they'd work for IMO is Stevie Wonder. I can't do both as the blind date is in Belfast and the leaving do in Fermanagh.

    So i'm leaving it up to the infinite wisdom of AH to decide my fate for tomorrow night.....and if you need more info before deciding what way to vote feel free to ask!!!!

    Blind date, more chance of a ride than some leaving do.

    Leaving do I assume if a female? Hell, I'd try the leaving do, and slip the friend a length.

    Actually, what I'd do is wuss out of the blind date, go to the leaving party, get ****faced, and make a show of myself.

    But hey, thats just me.

    From what I gather its cos her kids are coming back the next morning and she'd have to be home for them early......also if AH decides I've to meet her, it'd be a far handier get away if she turns out to be some sorting raving loon.

    I'm picturing one of those "Confessions of a Window Cleaner" style getaways if needs be!!

    i'm not going to lie. the fact that you had to even CONSIDER asking about this is a bad sign.

    I think blind dates are unfair. They can't even see you.

    Hyuck hyuck hyuck.

    The having kids thing would be a red flag to me, but more power to you OP for being open minded!

    Normally I'd be up the motorway like a shot with me tallywacker flapping in the wind like an extra outta Braveheart. Its just the guilt after I'd promised my friend, (she is female too) that I'd go to her do and I know already a few people have dropped out

    So your friend will realise she's unpopular, you however will be getting the ride.

    And the fact that your blind date has kids means she probably doesn't get out much. This means she probably hasn't had sex in a while. The knock on affect of this means you will be guaranteed fantastic sex.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,900 ✭✭✭littlefriend


    Potentially awkward being with your friends neighbour no?
    There are very few women just up for the carry on...so maybe leave her alone and see what happens at the leaving do..you might meet someone there.

    Why not bring your blind date to the leaving do?
