    I have been asked to go to a wedding with a guy that I dont know very well. We met on a nite out and so don't know each other very well and I won't knjow anybody at the wedding as it is another end of the country.

    I need advice on whether I should accept or not, I like the guy and he seems very nice but I don't know him at all so it could be a long day:confused: also there is the issue of having to share a room with him that nite:confused:

    Have you established whether or not you're the bride?

    Why would you want to go to a strangers wedding with someone you don't know?

    Free food, free drink, excuse to dress up (if you're a girl, excuse to wear a nice pair of heels).

    Why not?!

    If it's going well with him, happy days and a nice hotel room experience.
    If it's not going well with him, there'll probably be plenty of other guys there, and if all else fails just get really drunk and pass out in a hotel room.

    Yeah, that would be a NO. It's a bit of a weird situation to be honest, and a bit cheeky to assume you'd share a room - like him or not. Kindly decline, but offer to meet up again if you feel up to it.

    when is the wedding? will he be taking you out again before the day?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,702 ✭✭✭squod

    After one night out, "Will you come to a wedding with me?".

    Sounds dubious, could be bringing you to a cabin in the woods..... full of hatchets and knives.....

    Ah no, I'm sure it'd be alright....... I hope.....

    These comments are scaring me!!

    Ah to explain more I've met up with him 3 times and he seemed very nice, we met through mutual friends and its them that are telling me that he's a gent a would treat me really well, we've been txting alot so I'd feel I know him fairly well, its more that I feel is it a bit much to go to a wedding together and we'll get plauged with questions on whether we're a couple!!! and I do think the sharing of a room isn't ideal but dosn't mean anything will happed:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,230 ✭✭✭Merkin


    Mmm I'd say go for it on the proviso that he pays for a seperate room for you. It doesn't matter if you want to ride him into next week but at least have a get out clause....he could turn out to be a nightmare and I'd be MASSIVELY put off that he think it is fine to presume that you'll want to share a room with him after three dates

    Slightly contradictory to the OP.. but okay..
    its more that I feel is it a bit much to go to a wedding together and we'll get plauged with questions on whether we're a couple!!! and I do think the sharing of a room isn't ideal but dosn't mean anything will happed:D
    Book yourself a single room for the night. Maybe he meant well, but at the same time it's a bit cheeky. If you have that single room to spare, at least you have something to fall back on. You said you don't know anyone else there, are the mutual friends not going? I personally wouldn't feel up to going to an event like that with someone I'd just met though..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13 energeticxx


    No we met through mutual friends, the wedding is of someone that he works with and there'll be about 5 people from work there that he'll know, thats all, thanks for the advice, I'll be going with having my own room if I do go


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,288 ✭✭✭TheUsual


    Enough with all the sensible "do-gooder" advice.
    Yuck !! This is After Hours ....


    Show up with a fake pregnant belly and half-way through the wedding scream "I'm having your baby you bastard !!!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭9959


    You know what they say: 'That going to a wedding is the making of another'
    Go girl!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,651 ✭✭✭✭El Weirdo


    ...we've been txting alot so I'd feel I know him fairly well...
    Oh well, in that case...

    :rolleyes:

    Really?


    If you met him and he blew you away it would be a yes.

    Otherwise.... no.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,433 ✭✭✭✭Mr Benevolent


    OP, he's looking for an excuse to get you drunk and shag you. End of. I'd be very dubious. No-one in their right mind invite someone they've only met to a wedding without an ulterior motive. On second thoughts, he might want to introduce you to the clan to size you up for marriage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭PizzamanIRL


    You want the D?

    If so, go.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,288 ✭✭✭TheUsual

    "D" ??

    What's a D ? You mean 'P' right, for Pizzaman ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,009 ✭✭✭✭Run_to_da_hills


    You have to weigh up the costs of going to a wedding like this to see if it is worth while or not.

    I would guess you would be lucky to get out of it for under e300 and that dose not include loss of earnings if you had to take the day or even following day off. :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,234 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    Where is the wedding? There are bound to be a few AH'ers that live nearby that you can use as back up people if he turns out to be a psycho...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36 Lexe


    Go! It's a compliment to be asked to a wedding, he's single and didn't have anyone else to ask. Just get yourself a single room, if it's not used what harm but have it there in case! Wedding are always great craic!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,837 ✭✭✭lab man


    GO ffs maybe ye'll hit it off, get the second room tho

    Ara go for it OP - life is short, you'll probably have a great day.

    You're more likely to regret the things you didnt do than those you did...
