Not the worst date I was ever on, but definitely the most awkward... just not for me.

I was 16/17 at the time, something like that and my friend wanted to go on a date with some girl he'd met in a chatroom (yeah, we were THAT cool). But she wouldn't go unless it was a double date (smart girl) so my friend convinced me to come along to date her friend.

We go to the movie theatre (naturally) and meet the girls and his date isn't really terribly good looking but mine is pretty cute. We go grab seats and sit down and chat a little and the girls get up to go to the washroom, my buddy asks me if we can swap girls... at which point I laughed and told him dates don't work that way.

During the movie cute girl and I are hitting it off and the other two are just kinda sitting there awkwardly when I decide 'f*ck it, I'm just gonna have a good time' and I start playing with this girl through her track pants (yeah.. she wore track pants to a date. good thing she had cute freckles and a great body for her age). We thought we were being all coy and sneaky when she looks over and realizes her friend had completely stopped watching the movie and was just staring at me with her jaw dropped wide open while I 'entertained' her friend. So cute chick leans over to her, points to the screen and says 'shows up there hun' and cozies back up to me.

I have yet to experience any post-movie small-talk that comes CLOSE to what happened that night.

This sounds familiar.

Oh sh!t

Just tell me you're not from Burlington and everything will be ok.


Edit: wait, your name is Cheri. I'm pretty sure neither of the girl's names was that... must just be coincidence. I'm sure this has happened to a TON of ppl before when they were that age, lol.

I was just kidding, lol.
I don't date.

Yeah, I realized I read that either earlier here or in another thread.

Not dating seems strange to me. I totally see where you're comming from with not wanting to feel like you OWE a guy anything. I kind of feel like that's the fault of the guys though, you shouldn't feel like you owe a guy something just because he paid for dinner/movie/whatever... it's not like you asked him to right?

I actually don't buy stuff for girls for another reason. A LOT of girls take advantage of guys (at bars) by getting them to buy them drinks without actually having any intention of even talking to them. A guy offers them a drink or shot, they say sure and then do it/take it and walk away. I think the whole culture of buying a girl a drink has changed from when it orginiated. Previously it was you buy a girl a drink so you have something to do while talking to them. It seems like now guys have ruined that by buying girls drinks just to get them drunk or to prove them have money to impress them. And as a reaction now girls just assume any guy buying them a drink or shot is being a douche so they take it and then ditch them without actually finding out if he is.

I do see dates as being different, once I'm actually dating a girl I pay for some things but I also expect the girl I'm seeing to pay for things too (which they've always wanted to... exactly because they don't want to feel as though they owe me anything). But for a first date when I meet a girl whether I pay or not depends 100% on how they act. If I feel like she's overly self-absorbed or has that "I'm hot shit" attitude then I won't pay just to subtely point out that I don't need to put up with that crap. And if she's your normal shy/nervous kind of girl then I'd pay without drawing any attention to it as if it was the most normal thing in the world in the hopes that it would boost her confidence a little to make her feel as though she deserved to be treated well.

I don't really believe in a hard-fast rule about relationships/dating. Some people say wait a few dates before getting intimate with a girl... that's stupid. Some girls are ready for it on day 1, some girls need some time to be comfortable... guys just need to pay attention to who needs what.
Oh, girls too. Girls are often times JUST as bad at judging guys and feel as if that's somehow ok just because they have to put up with being hit on by douches a lot? That's just an excuse for lazyness. By no means am I saying girls need to give every puppy eyed boy that walks up to them stammering a chance... but seriously, I've seen SO many girls (friends included) act downright bitchy to guys and then pretend like it was completely morally justifiable to treat one guy like shit just because of what other guys have done? Gah.

O well.

/end rant.

That joke went right above your head. :(

I'm guessing it did... but my rant was kinda unrelated to this thread or your joke anyways. It was just triggered because of what you said in another thread and your 'not dating' comment. I'm sure I'll look like a crazy person to anyone who hasn't read both threads, but I'm pretty ok with that.

It's not that hard to not be an awful person while you're on your period. It's called self control, dignity, and respect for those who have to deal with you. If you're having a tough day, go home and cry about it in your pillow. But when you're out in public, act like a human being and treat others how you would want to be treated. Seriously. Being a female doesn't give you a pass to be rude to others.



I definitely second this. I can't take somebody serious who uses their period or PMS as an excuse to act like a psychotic *****. I pretty much lose all respect for them. Just own up to behaving poorly and move on with it. Don't blame being female for your behaviour.

I TOTALLY agree with you. Not all girls are the same, just stop complaning and hold it all inside you, won't make your pain go away, you will just make other people's lives miserable. ****, my ex used to get sooo ****ink cranky.

ex:"My stomach hurts, my legs hurt, I don't want to do anything, I can't sit down!!!"

Me:"And what the **** am I suppose to do?"

Thank god its over

Yea, I'm sure you've never complained about anything in your whole life (little known fact, you're doing it right now. Just stop complaining and hold it all inside you, otherwise you'll just make other peoples' lives miserable)

Like I said previously, you try bleeding from your ***** and feeling like someone's smoking you in the ribs for 3-7 days nonstop with a baseball bat.

Better yet, imagine what it would feel like if ripped open your guts by jabbing their hand into you, and started twisting everything around. Because that's way more accurate of what it feels like.

Also, beyond the actual physical pain that can come with it, you can have a hormonal imbalance which is what causes is the emotional rollercoaster. Saying girls that get all emotional during their period should suck it up is like saying the people with chemical imbalances resulting in depression should just suck it up. Your body is kind of in control. Not saying you can't at least try and keep your shit together, but it's a little unfair to blame girls for whats out of their control.

I don't like it when girls exploit the pain of menstruation as an excuse to do whatever they want, but I hate it even more when guys tell us to hold it all inside of you.

You can't always use "Well, take some pills or something" as a solution because some of us don't want to be drugged to stop the pain. I personally have a high tolerance, so I'd have to take like 50 of anything to get started. Don't really want that. Midol doesn't work on me either.

Menstrual pain can go as far as landing you in the hospital. Although that's an extreme example, it's ****ing painful. It genuinely hurts, be it only for the first day of your cycle, or throughout. It's hard to be pleasant to ignorant guys who tell you to stfu and suck it up when all you want to do is punch them in the nads for saying it.


When girls complain, they aren't asking for a solution, just a vent session. Listen, and don't be a jerk.

Hey, well how is complaining going to help anyone ?

don't complain to anyone. COMPLAIN TO EVOLUTION.

P.S on the otherhand how can you trust something that bleeds for 5 days and doesn't die

No one is saying it's gonna help anyone or anything.

We're complaining because we're pissed BECAUSE WE'RE BLEEDING FROM OUR VAJAYJAYS.

It's not like a nose bleed.
