If she's that easily influenced by her friend, I'd say you dodged a bullet.

If I liked a guy and wanted to continue talking to him, I'd tell my friend to get lost.

But that's just me.

I agree with this. Hell, I'm not 12, and if I want to talk to someone and a friend gets in my way, I ask her to back off and come back later; then again my friends and I don't crowd each other like that...we know that splitting up at different times during the night (i.e.. "I'm hitting the ladies room", "I'm taking a walk, be back") is better for talking to those men we've been looking at, or at least walking by them and giving them a good opp to talk to us.

No matter how much I drink or where I go, I know what I like and what I don't; I was blessed with that ability. No amount of alcohol will make me like a guy I don't like sober...I do get a bit more honest and in your face when drinking, but that's another thread.

Incidentally, when a woman does that for a friend she's usually been instructed to do so beforehand. It goes like this:

Woman 1: After about two more of these I'm going to have beer goggles.. you need to stop me if I look like I'm about to cop off with the biggest loser in this place.

Woman 2 (AKA C**k Block): Sure thing, I got your back.


hahahahahahaha so true

You're always only two chicks away from a threesome.

It's hard to be mad at you when you have cute new pictures of yourself with debbil horns

Those are horns? I thought they were ears... j/k

She leaned towards you... was she smelling you??

You could have offered to dance with her but I am glad you didn't because she doesn't sound like much more than a pair of boobs.

They whispered to each other then you got ditched. Sounds like she told the friend to save her from the situation. No mature woman would have or let another woman do the talking for her unless....... she is gay. Maybe they were gay and the girl was playing a game with you.

We were standing against a wall. Side by side. She leaned into me. I don't believe any sniffing was going on. And if so, it was only 30 minutes in, and I was still fresh.

Do women do that??



You could have offered to dance with her but I am glad you didn't because she doesn't sound like much more than a pair of boobs.


No time. Please, unless they're horrible people, even I don't reduce women to "a pair of boobs". Even IF they were fantastic.


I just wanted to have a survey tacked onto this. Show of hands: How many think I was only after her for sex?

Sounds like a dollar each way bet to me. So thats where Im putting my money.
You've gone the avert-eyes-from-bust which shows ur aware of how ur coming across, but then threw in the C-Block to shoot it down in flames.
So I reakon, u woulda been up for a one-nighter at the very least but open to it becoming more if things played that way.

It's a figure of speech which I thought was widely known and generally understood. I guess not.

For lack of a better word, someone who's intentionally an obstacle when it comes to success with the other gender. And, you are correct, both outcomes would be acceptable. Although, I've never brought a girl home I just met that night. I don't operate that way.

I usually try to GET TO KNOW THEM. And hopefully talk to them later on.

Sometimes alcohol speeds up that process.

Should have put her on the spot, quick response:

to the un-invited party:
"Well, i could use a little myself"
To the girl you were having a chat with
"Care to join me?" hold out your hand.

Putting her on the spot is going to force her to give an out-right answer. Or at least thats the way i see it.

THATS the kind of advice I came here looking for!

Although I expected it, I wasn't looking to have my character (falsely) judged. (But thank to those who did. It shows me your character and your advice in the future will be considered questionable.) And I didn't come here look for justification of what I consider dispicable behavior. But, both things can be learned from.

I came here asking how to deal with that situation. As a MALE placed on this earth, in this society, I have to put up with the SHITASTIC behaviors of women, and approach them and do all the work, and put my feelings on the line over and over, and somehow still keep it all together. Only to have my motives questioned. Why? I'm drawn to them in a way that falls firmly into masochism.
Please do your gender a favor and help out. This prejudice, that I'm out only looking for sex, or defending this type of thing does NOT look good for women. It's really kind of ugly, like this rant. I'll continue to put myself on the line. Searching for that diamond in the bottom of the latrine. I know it's there! I've seen plenty of them. And to get that, I need some cooperation here.

^^^^^ you're not going to get any advice, you'll always be shot down in flames if you are "off message". Maybe the best approach is just agree to everything and learn to nod your head in an affirming way? The way to a girls heart is thru unquestioning agreement and submission :-)

Practice : "Yes, I was just looking for sex and deaminging these two polite young ladies in the process."

Personally, Im just looking for sex too, and there's nothing I like better than playing, lying, using, reading minds and then deliberately not acting acordingly and if I do anything at all worthy of discussion, there is never a banal or simple explanation of my actions or words - the real reason is always the most painful and threatening explanation it's possible to think of.

Why can't all us guys just own up?

Ubkobalt, my earlier message (3) is not based on this thread alone. My observation of you is a culmination of all your posts that I have read. They reek of sexual frustration. To me, it appears you are chagrined by the need to acquaint yourself with a woman and wish society operated like a brothel. You walk in, pick someone and find somewhere quiet. Instead of relationships , monogamy and commitment you prefer regular sex fests.

I am willing to accept that this is probably not who you are and that is my point. Like MichaelAngelo said, most red blooded males aren't going to turn down sex and most red blooded women are pretty fond of it too so that, in itself, is not the turn off. It is the fact that you appear to covet nothing else. You are driven only by your apparent all consuming, infinite, lust.

I am continually amazed that you are 27 whenever I read your posts as they read like something written by a horny pubescent. No matter how removed the thread is from the subject of sex you will somehow be able to bring it round to that.

Now, of course, that is only my opinion and, I am sure, my good opinion of you is not something you covet. I am merely pointing out that if I have observed it, most other astute women can observe it too. You may not want my approval but you, more than likely, want the approval of the "diamond" you are seeking.

I am not saying all women want a ring on their finger but, I believe, few women are interested in one night stands. This is probably not what you seek but this is the impression you give.


Please do your gender a favor and help out.

In keeping with the above... do yourself a favour and extend your repertoire. You don't have to be a Eunuch... you just have to appear as though something else occupies your thoughts, at some point, other than breasts, shapely thighs, firm behinds and p***y.

Trust me, once you master this your appeal will increase exponentially.

A girlfriend once told me that women almost never go off with a guy if they are out as a pair, because they don't want to leave their friend on their own. They only go for a guy if there are three or more girls in the group.

I think they mean "go off" as in just leave the club with a strange man for the night which we usually don't do if out in a group (there are a couple women who'd do that to their friends in a heartbeat, but most of us keep tabs on each other for safety reasons). We do, however talk to men we like and might possibly give out or take a phone number to talk to them one on one at a later date. After all we are out with people already that we've made plans with, and we don't ditch plans.

However we don't go out with the expectation we're going to just talk to each other all night either. Drink, dance and laugh? Sure, but that's about it. We could just sit in someone's house if we want to do that, and of course we all know each other well enough already that there's not much to talk about.

Ok...gotcha. Around my area, "go off" means leave the club entirely. Whoops, language barrier. My bad.

Does the new definition make a difference to your answer to my comments re: what my ex-girlfriend told me?

Nope, as I said my friends and I do "go off" with men we like if we're all out doing a girl's night. We don't have a big problem with that. I suspect if someone's insecure enough, she might want to get in the way of another friend making some headway, but we don't usually have that problem.

^^^^^ I couldn't think of an international word for it. I guess over hear they might call it copping off, getting off, cracking off, scoring - something like that. For leaving the club they'd just say "going home with"

You don't understand - the c-blocker is there by the express invitation of the person you're being blocked from.

She doesn't want to tell you to your face "no thanks, cretin" or she'd like to get drunk without having to worry about waking up with a guy who looks like Borat's manager, pregnant and with herpes.

So women have these little informal "huddles" before they go out - you see a guy hitting on me, unless I'm giving the cat signal, get me away from him. OR "I wanna get drunk, stop me from sleeping with ANYONE. Unless he's really rich or looks like Brad Pitt."

What's even funnier is the inverse - the gaggle of coiffed girls who are obviously ALL wanting to go out and have a good time, yet they clot in one corner staring nervously but hopefully at the surroundings, like wildebeeste.

Chicks ( I used that on purpose) like that are a COMPLETE waste of time, space and skin as far as I'm concerned. She was probably looking for free drinks and wasn't getting em. My favourite were the girls who'd come up to me at a club (a few years ago now) to check out my glow sticks...and would then try to just walk away with them. I mean they'd actually smile and make eye contact as they started the back step....

I hate club chicks...

First of all, what kind of guy wears glowsticks?

Second, yeah - thieves suck, and most of them tend to be female and unapologetic. =)

You have to bedazzle both girls with your charming converstation,
Sometimes it is planned but i think also sometimes its as simple as, the other girl is getting bored, and not having fun. Unless she has something to do she is gonna pull her freind away from you because they came together and thats who is supposed to be hanging out and having fun with her. I think females are more simpithetic to this with their freinds as well they dont want their friend sitting around being bored, and put their freinds before the guy they meet because ... well pretty simply because they can always get another guy in like 10 minutes or so anyways. Guys arent so much like that, they would probly get a "wtf is your problem dude im busy " or something like that.

Its easier if you have a freind who is as good looking as you to run a distraction move on her freind that way you can just focus on her.The thing is alot of the times this happens the girl who is doing the blocking isnt all that good looking, if she was alotta times she would be talking to her own guy or whatever. Ever heard of the phraze "jump on the gernade" "take one for the team"

You need a good freind who is willing to do this for you, usually you have to take turns jumping on the gernade.
