Guest Jlall Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 i cabnt realoly date girls as a bridge pro since im awlays gone,..wtf do you guys tinkg? solution?I think drink-posting should be illegal. You should be able to construct a paragraph in your native tongue without using "*****" and "WTF" in every sentence. Girls don't like drunks, or being kissed by drunks. I think this is the silliest thread I have ever come across in BBO forums. If you can't find dates because you are a travelling pro, and dating is important to you, you should find another job. To find a job you need a few college degrees so I hope you have them. If I misunderstood the thread or missed the joke, I think I should apologise, otherwise ...........not. :) Well, you asked what readers think. This is what I think. lol. <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al_U_Card Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I guess this makes you an "affectionate" drunk. Respect is something that you need to have to appeal to the kind of woman that you need. The rest...good luck with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdonn Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Were you really this drunk? I don't know the funniest way to phrase this, so I'll simply ask. Have you MET him??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y66 Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Flirting (with cause), then apologizing then getting up to go all sound like good instincts. Your vocabulary and typing skills are not going to impress her. Don't worry about the typing. Agree with Helene that the travel requirements of your profession are not necessarily a disadvantage. Maybe you're using this as an excuse to keep things at a safe distance. Totally agree with Al about the respect thing. I've been in worse shape than this and still ended up in the sack with babe # 1 (the one I cared about). What can I say? Nearly killed me though. Luv you too man. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Update: Nothing was said but we both blacked out a little, so I asked my sister to ask Andrea if she remembered what happened (under the guise of "I saw you make out.") Andrea told Jessica she remembered, then later in the night was like "so we made out last night..." and I was like "yeah I figured you didn't remember" then she told me she DIDNT but jessica reminded her...not sure WTF that was but that gave me an easy way to make out with her again lol. But will she remember? Last night was ridiculous btw but more awkward posting this kind of stuff sober. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jlall Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 In an interesting twist, I have decided to give up on drinking pretty much. I will just get 1 and sip on it/not drink it since it is required in many social settings (such as post evening session with clients at the bar), but other than that why bother? Getting drunk just makes you stupid for that period of time, and I don't really want to feel that way. Post morteming these nights I feel very much like an idiot, and like everyone around me were idiots. I no longer get the feeling of "Wow that was a fun night!" There was once some glamour of going out, potentially hooking up with a random girl at the club, potentially getting some phone numbers, but I've realized that some posters in this thread were right, these are not really the kind of people I want to attract. I also realize that I have ruined a lot of potential relationships with girls I do want to attract from acting like an idiot at night in these kind of situations. Maybe it's an optimal strategy for hooking up with them in that specific night, but it is such a suboptimal long term strategy and it makes your respect for them go down, and their respect for you go down. Hell, it makes my respect for myself go down. Such is the case with Andrea. It's not even that it's awkward, it's just that the respect level is much lower now. I'm sure some are thinking "why not drink less when you drink, like most normal people?" Well, moderation is not exactly me strong point in ANY area of my life, and drinking is no exception. Fine. I realize that not drinking while being around drunk people is going to be boring, since idiocy is not so funny when you're sober. That will lead me to avoid those situations, but I'm ok with that. I don't really have to be THAT guy. In fact, I'm not that guy. I am the guy who just looked up an address/phone number for a place, and noticed that it was on 1615 whatever street, and also the last 4 digits of their phone number were 1615, AND that 1615 is a valid bridge shape. Yes, I'm THAT guy, and I'm happy with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice post. :unsure: You will be fine, because you are way too smart to become a drunk. I drink, but within limits. Some people find it difficult to stop after the first one. I have family members who died from alcoholism and others that eventually realised that they couldn't have just one without getting wasted, and stopped completely. Speaking from my own experiences in life, drunks are not attractive whether it be man or woman. Rona Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babalu1997 Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it. Dear kindly Sergeant Krupke,You gotta understand,It's just our bringin' up-keThat gets us out of hand.Our mothers all are junkies,Our fathers all are drunks.Golly Moses, natcherly we're punks! ACTION AND JETSGee, Officer Krupke, we're very upset;We never had the love that ev'ry child oughta get.We ain't no delinquents,We're misunderstood.Deep down inside us there is good! ACTIONThere is good! ALLThere is good, there is good,There is untapped good!Like inside, the worst of us is good! SNOWBOY: (Spoken) That's a touchin' good story. ACTION: (Spoken) Lemme tell it to the world! SNOWBOY: Just tell it to the judge. ACTIONDear kindly Judge, your Honor,My parents treat me rough.With all their marijuana,They won't give me a puff.They didn't wanna have me,But somehow I was had.Leapin' lizards! That's why I'm so bad! DIESEL: (As Judge) Right! Officer Krupke, you're really a square;This boy don't need a judge, he needs an analyst's care!It's just his neurosis that oughta be curbed.He's psychologic'ly disturbed! ACTIONI'm disturbed! JETSWe're disturbed, we're disturbed,We're the most disturbed,Like we're psychologic'ly disturbed.

DIESEL: So take him to a headshrinker. ACTION (Sings)My father is a bastard,My ma's an S.O.B.My grandpa's always plastered,My grandma pushes tea.My sister wears a mustache,My brother wears a dress.Goodness gracious, that's why I'm a mess!

mr1303 Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 If ever there's a situation where people are going to be drinking and I don't want to get involve, I have an easy get-out clause: I drive. Therefore, when people are buying the rounds etc, I just jingle my car keys and I get orange juice in front of me, rather that tequilas. Much better!

keylime Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 And I thought my dating life was exciting currently...Justin you have avoided the Craiglist girls again I hope. :P In all seriousness, this reminded me of the time where I was in a similar situation, with a redhead, in northern California in 1997. This brought back many memories. Lord, she is still incredible....<shakes head> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
