So sadly my date tonight didn't go very well. Hell it was awful.

[wewontdie11]

You think that's bad, you should try having your date get off with one of your best friends right infront of you.

Happened to me. Fortunately, I was gonna dump her anyway so it just saved effort on my part. Though her friends still tried to give me frak about it. Fortunately he wasn't a best friend, just a mate through a mate, though he did/does have an annoying habit of staring at YOU, not his date who's jawlocked to his face, but YOU, whilst he's making out with them. Doesn;t half give you the creeps.

That does actually sound creepy as hell. Although I'd make the most of that by making uncomfortable hand gestures and mimes while he was doing that.

You think that's bad, you should try having your date get off with one of your best friends right infront of you.

Yeah, happens. Though sometimes the charge for assault is just a slap on the wrist. =D

Yup that was the angriest I've ever been in my life. Had to be literally dragged away by two of my larger friends or else I would have murdered him. I took it out on a steel shutter outside which I laced into until my knuckles bled and dented it a bit.

Wow thats far worse :O

Ex-best-friend now though I guess?

Haven't spoken to him in about a year and a half.

I feel I must say, the cinema isn't a good place for a date. You have to sit in silence watching a film one or both of you might not even enjoy...I just don't think there's much bonding to be made there. Lesbian Vampire Killers? Oh come on mate!

That said, sorry you didn't enjoy yourself. Many, many other girls out there though, keep going!

 

[Simalacrum]

well, i'd like to boast about how i've never had a bad date... buuuut then again i haven't had many dates to go badly in the first place...

the few i have had didn't go too badly, i did have a pleasant time with a girl today but then she's just a friend

 

[AndyVale]

yEAH. just stroke that poon and in good time you will be muff diving with the best of 'em. Serious Motorboat territory dude. I'm talking major BRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrroobies time here. Your eyes will be flesh covered 80% of the time. yeah.

Another blog entry for the Escapist?

Anyway, it's just a date, you'll get over it. Go buy some chips or something.

chips and dip perhaps....or how about chips and beer..even better.

You expect too much from socialization. You're lucky if you get to laugh genuinely once in a night.

We went to see Lesbian Vampire Killers (awful film) but it really was a waste of an evening.

I couldn't start or sustain a conversation, was inarticulate, unfunny and incredibly akward about my personal space. I did not put across a good impression at all and my self-esteem took a major battering.

So now I'm feeling quite sad. Anybody feel like calling the Wahmbulance for me?

No Wahmbulance. The only logical course of action is to admit you are a genetic social reject who does not deserve to be happy on account of your passive effrontery towards God's noble creation, swear off dating once and for all no matter how lonely and starved for affection you get because it still hurts less than being rejected, and bury yourself so far in the billions of terabytes of online porn that eventually you won't even consider a woman a woman unless she's on-screen and doing something that clearly demonstrates the price of her dignity.

At least that's what I've done. Try it and see if it goes just as well for you.

Note: get seriously into anime. Now that you're a social reject, you'll suddenly get all the jokes and plot points you never got before. Also, there are catwomen.

I love you. really I do. can we be friends?

Shake it off, Not every girl is a girl for you.

OP, It's ok. It could of gotten much worse. Now, I'm not here to piss on your parade, but really man, Lesbian Vampire Killers? Don't tell me it was your idea. Anywho, it was only a date, next time, go do something that sounds fun, be yourself, and if she really is interested, she won't feel awkward. Be you, whoever that may be. Don't feel awkward or ashamed of your true colors.
Geek Pride!
or whatever you are.

Dear Escapist,

Today I was pompous and my sister was crazy. Then we got kidnapped by hillfolk and were never heard from again.

(someone had better get that reference or I will have to become exceptionally violent)

Stow the violence, Jayne.

OP: If you felt ill at ease, inarticulate, et cetera, then evidently you two didn't immediately click. With proper clicking both parties should be confident and have plenty to talk about, don't take it all as your failing if the fit wasn't right.

Although, as others have suggested, Lesbian Vampire Killers was probably not the wisest choice.

Everyone goes thru certain times in the course of their daily lives - a day when you are just "off," not yourself, feeling awkward. The next day you can be great, but the day it is happening you can't seem to shake it off. I don't know if it is bio-rhythms or what, but we all have those days when nothing is right in how we feel or come across to others.

Don't let it get you down, it was just one day out of your life that you didn't ROCK, and tomorrow you will again.

going out on a limb, why in a nice bag of shit and chips would anyone see a movie about lesbian vampire hunters?

even as a comedic porn that sounds corny.

 

[mALX]

alot of people make the mistake of thinking they need to keep convorsations going

tips:
- don't talk until she talks to you.
- when you talk, make everything about her - until she asks about you, then be cocky.
- Open all doors for her
- flirt with any waitresses you meet (provided you'd have a chance with them)

The main thing:
- She isn't at home thinking you're an inarticulate idjit. She probably thinks you're just not comfortable - so act like you don't care next time, wear nice clothes but not cool clothes.

EDIT: Oh by the way: Don't take her to a movie - ever - until you're her 'boyfriend.' Dinner, then a walk around the mall maybe.

Lol!

Bluesader is a truly awesome dude.

You expect too much from socialization. You're lucky if you get to laugh genuinely once in a night.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say none of your friends have a sense of humor, or at least, not one that coincides with your own. Whenever I see my friends (like, once every few months,) laughs abound.
I suppose they could just be humoring me, though...
Thanks, now I'm paranoid.
