Poll: My friend... That is cold... (867-5309/Jenny)

[Shugaazer]

Gee, that's mighty cold of her. She's probably told her equally bitchy friends how she yanked some dude's chain that day. =/

...Are you SURE that she wasn't flirting right back at you by making a joke? Sure, you didn't get the joke, but the majority of people would, making it a pretty poor blow off, but a pretty funny, lets-be-friends kind of teasing. I bet there's a fair chance that if you go back there with a sense of humor, and tell her the story of how you made a fool out of yourself, you just might get a date, and discover that she never actually meant to trick you.

Such a great song.

No, I don't ask for numbers but when I get them ,they're real. I guess I'm lucky that way.

I had a friend who would always ask for numbers at bars and such. Unfortunately, the fellow had the dual qualities of being physically and mentally bland. He had the charisma of a dead stump, but, bless his soul, he would try!

Once, at a strip joint, he asked for the number of a waitress who had a broken blackberry. He believed her, too!

Even in QC(He didn't speak a lick of french), he made an attempt. Even though the area we were in found english exotic to hear!

Your friend can be commended for his valor. I have no such compulsion within me, for various reasons. Among them, I am an utter failure at selling myself. I have no idea how I would convince another person that they would want to make an investment of time in my company.

*shrug* Alas.


Your friend obviously lacks my inhibitions (which, I would add, is technically a double-negative.)

I'm not so sure if that's a good thing, though!

I mean, is it better to not try and never know or to be repeateadly shot down?

 

[Pimppeter2]

I say you just give her another reply with a guys name and a phone #

 

[Superior Mind]

I think it's actually a pretty okay way for her to let you know she's not interested. No awkward moments, you not feeling rejected, it all works out.

 

[Fingolfin High-King of the Noldor]

No. I was introduced to that song too quickly in life to fall for that joke.

 

[MrSnugglesworth]

Just call her out at her job. Just be like "WHY WOULD YOU STAND ME UP LIKE THIS!" and embarrass the shit out of her.

 

[teutonicman]

That is pretty god damn funny and no that has not happened me.

 

[Sporky111]

I'd suggest giving her a slip of paper with the word "*****" written in cute lettering. With a smiley face next to it. Justice. . .

 

[blank0000]

no vengeance, go up to her, admit you fell for her ruse and walk off the better man.

 

[blank0000]

but...if you do feel the need to "return the favor" I suggest the rejection hotline something DESIGNED for a man in your position.

Go back and see how she reacts to you. Was it a fun little joke that you can leverage into something else? Or, was it meant to an embarrassing brush off. Just follow your instincts and see how she responds to your presence.

O.T: It perpetually blows my mind apart when pop culture references, that I would take for granted, aren't caught. Maybe the pop culture refernces that I know aren't too pop-y anymore.

[Emperor Inferno]

Not quite, but I did have a guy once give me a note "from his sister" saying she was in love with me.

It was made of clipped newsprint.

Even as young and gullible as I was, I knew instantly he was trying to prank me. I looked at it, saw the newsprint, and promptly threw it away.

 

[AWC Viper]

ummm.....no, i have had a rather personal (love confession for a girl whom i thought was feeling the same thing) E-mail forwarded to lot's of evil classmates. humiliation soon followed.

 

[Kriptonite]

I'd be pretty pissed if a girl did that to me, but would then shrug it off right after. Usually, it would mean the girl isn't interested in you at all if she gives you a fake number, but in this case maybe she was just being playful. Go back and act like you have no idea what happened, like you tried to call and nothing happened or something. Maybe she just wants some more interaction before giving you her real number, can't be too careful these days.

I agree. This seems to be the way to go. If she really is just mean, just don't talk to her anymore and go back to card(only, nothing else) exchanging.

 

[ae86gamer]

Hahahahahahaha! XD

Ahem. >_> Sorry for that.
No, I have never been Jenny'ed.

 

[Julianking93]

Sounds like someone's in for a good beat down!!

 

[Poomanchu745]

Thats pretty fucking bitchy of the girl. You didn't ask her for her number or anything. She is a total ***** and deserves some bad karma thrown her way. Wow. If you see her again just tell her straight up that she is a ***** and a bit pudgy.

 

[MmmFiber]

While I would say that there is a chance that she was just trying to be playful with you, I don't think that is the case. If she tries to rub it in the next time you see her just pretend like you never intended to call her... you know, make her think she went to that trouble for nothing. Should at least make her feel stupid.

But then again.... 867-5309 is an incredibly infamous number. So, it is possible that she was just trying to break the ice that way. I suggest playing this one by ear, because some people just like to be mean.
