Arrggh, Why cant men take a hint!!

[Mekrel]

So you asked a friend for drinks, knowing she'd probably be excited about it then stood her up after presumably insulting her the last time, an seem proud of that fact.

Gee what a lovely chap you are.

Ermm, maybe read a post properly?

I promised (you know, as in keep a commitment after being asked to do something?) I would go for a drink with her after she invited me out. Being as she hasn't made any arrangement details then I'm not in the wrong for prompting her.

She has been going on about meeting up for a long time but I've always told her I didn't want to.

I didn't insult her last time either, just told her I didn't want to hold her hand when she kept trying to yank my hand out of my jacket whilst walking from one pub to another.

Also is someone is immature enough to laugh at you for asking them out then you're better off without them imo.

True, though I seem to think more people are two-faced than what most people believe. They'll never laugh in your face of course, but I've overheard so many similar conversations when at work and I've always thought to myself "poor guy lol, he'd die if he heard that".

Edit: Often happened in the case of "poor girl" too, even more so as I know how emotional you girlies can be

I promised I would go for a drink with her last week as I got paid but didn't instigate when it came to it, and she didn't either

That does look like you asked here, and also why would you write but i didn't instigate it if she asked you, that does read a lot like you asked here then did sod all about it.

Probably true. Mostly you'll never hear someone talking about you though really. Personally I say what I think and always have done, I prefer that.

Same question as zefan, how do you intend to wine and dine me on tax dodger wages?

I make plenty enough money

Then you are a rare breed and therefore more sought after, which may explain the reason you have settled with a relationship/family younger than most, which is awesome

I agree with you about being forward though, it saves everyone a lot of time

Try....

"Do you ever get it when something just clicks and makes you really happy?"

"summed up as yeh"

and get back a txt about hells kitchen and how it makes people see how hard her work is,shes a chef, that one totally confused me.

According to some other famale friend that was a cop out.

 

[Heofz]

Wow now THAT's subtle. Though just simply out of the blue, "Do you ever get it when something just clicks and makes you really happy?" would seem a bit odd, so maybe you should've replied with "like what exactly? " Things may have ended up a bit different

Unless I have read your post totally wrong, in which case ignore me

or perhaps she had no idea what you where talking about.

oh em gee a girl on the forums, whatever will we do? Ask her if she's hot and hit on her... *sigh*

 

[Jonny ///M]

She was the one asking the question to start with.

I was just like WTF out of the blue text message. Yes we have been to see her and stuff(shes an ex) but still...shes clearly lost it.

Just what i was thinking

Hmm perhaps she wrongly thought you knew her better than you actually do?

 

[Mekrel]

That does look like you asked here, and also why would you write but i didn't instigate it if she asked you, that does read a lot like you asked here then did sod all about it.

because I didn't instigate to it when the time came. She asked me to go for a drink and I said ok but not until two weeks time as I'm strapped for cash due to it being a 5 week pay role. Which was the truth. Even though actually texting her a reminder about being paid isn't a problem, in her eyes that would come over to her as me wanting to see her where as other people probably wouldn't read into it as much.

Could text her saying friendly drink or just as friends but it comes over as condescending I think.

I knew what rough time period it would land on, but it's uncomfortable for me to be around her as she has hidden agendas when it comes to me although she has back peddled and denied it after letting onto too much. Also confirmed by her pulling aside a girl who I would consider a close friend and interrogating her as to what's going on between us and she is jealous of how close she is to me.

Going out as friends for a drink I have zilch problems with, she is a nice girl and is also pretty but there are certain factors which I wouldn't be able to cope with. A male friend of mine decided to take the **** out of her at the pub table one day (basically she has communication problems, she talks very fast and through her nose which can't be helped) to which I told him to stop being an idiot. Yet as I said, she wants more and I've made it clear by straight telling her that the feelings are not mutual.

Theres something strangely unnatural about women...

and this forum

Maybe one prefer to speak his mind in person?

I think i will wait to the weekend to lay down what it hink n put the ball in her park...she can decide if its worth the hassle or not.

Also, well done, bet your buzzing!

There are clearly too many people on this forum who don't get out enough.... (no offence to Knip of course, lol)
