Ok guys, this is yet another one of my 'Thursday nite frustrations'. Be prepared to listen openly and know that I am not attacking yall, but I'm just gettin this off my chest.

Tonite, like every Thursday nite, I went to a local club. About 12 of us sittin at a few tables and we are noticing these 3 guys starin at us the whole time. So after about an hour of their staring, I went up and told them that they COULD ask us to dance, it wouldn't hurt. And the guy I was mainly talking to was all "Oh I don't dance" very rudely....so I'm like whatever. I go back to the table to tell everyone about these guys and a few minutes later they come over to us. The guy that was being rude earlier was gettin interested in me, you could say. And to make him shut up I gave him a dance...but wait...I thought he couldn't dance!? This was true...amoungst him stepping on my toes (I had no shoes on because I decided to wear sandals and can't dance in sandals) he starts tryin to mack on me and invited me to his place afterwards for...hmm...how did he put this..."some fun". I tell him no thanks, and he spends the next 30 minutes beggin me to go to his house!

Now guys, I just don't understand this at all. I'm not uptight or anything, but geeze! First you treat me rudely, then you wanna get busy? MEN!!!!!!!

Sounds like he wanted to park his truck in your garage for the night?

 

That's not a man. Sounds more like a moron. I can't believe that method works for him.

 

I am gratefull that I am an old man now. Playground antics amuse me at my age. The dating ritual has changed?. Gathering in groups, sending out an test case, token refusal, rejection when you accept the orignal offer, ridicule. Yep, that's the way I remember it, crazy.

 

Miss Jen,

not trying to justify anything here....but....ummmmm....you did approach him, and you did say he COULD ask.

Sounds like he asked. lol

Yes we men are pigs, we dont try to be, its just our nature.

Jen,

I mean no offense, but you did go over to him (them) and sort of left the impression that you and your friends would welcome some friendly contact, ie "dancing".

Then you got offended because the guy wasn't as nice and smooth as you would have liked.

I know some guys are shy about walking up to a table full of girls and asking someone to dance. The fact that you made the first move probably gave the guy the mistaken impression that you were looking for more than a dance.

Anyway, the guy should know how to take NO for an answer.

Just my .02.

I agree, the guy's a moron. Trust me though, we men have complaints about women!

 

The topic of the way guys are is a shady topic. I have my thoughts on why we are the way we are, and i think it is justified. Some are worse than others.


Primary rig is Green Thunder:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Sunroof, CD player with 2 10" subs and some 32" BFG Muds .

Check out my Gallery for a look-see.


Then theres:
99' Mustang GT 4.6L
88' F-250 Superduty 4x4 351/c6
95' Mercury Cougar 4.6L V-8
80' E-350 300/6 with a
3 spd column shifter. Top speed is 65mph, Go Baby Go!

 

I am not sure what it is about us men when we are single. We sure can act like morons eh? I have always been of the conviction that we are basically 2 legged dogs who would like ourselves if we could. Once we are married most of us settle down, a #10 cast iron skillet will do that yah know. Also keep in mind, to us guys a good conversation consists of maybe a string of 20 words. As far as dancing, why do you think us guys all wear those heavy boots? All the better to crush toes and thus avoid future requests to dance, most of us are too embarrassed to dance.

Personally I would not go to a bar looking for a woman I would like to spend real quality time with. This may be a quirk on my part, but I suspect it of many other men, we go to bars to either flirt with or chase women, not to bring one home to momma.

Don't worry, there are plenty of us guys out there who are real gentlemen or at least truly interested in you as a person. My wife might argue the point but then she doesn't like cast iron that much. And she is stuck with me now, then the real man comes out har, belch.

The dating scene is rather a PITA if you ask me. Us guys also pick up women that are real pieces of work, so the irritation goes both ways. I am often surprised that we as a species still survive. I fortunately met my wife thru a blind date at a friend's wedding.

So yes men are dogs, but then women are almost totally irrational and confusing to us reasonable sensible men.

Good Luck, you're gonna need it.

Come to Calgary Jen, I'm a dancing fool.

Oh that's right,You're looking for someone Single.

Single men are Pigs or Rooster's.
Some single women are Piglet's.
I know of a woman that hung out in bar's for 18 years.
She was married in WHITE 3 times, she didn't have any shame.



Sounds like you could use a Social Convener and a Review Panel.

*Tip:Bars aren't the best place to find a Gentleman.

From what hear gentlemen hang out at Church.

Good luck in you search for one.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 19-Jul-02 AT 03:26 PM (EST)]Alan Jackson puts it best... "Just be pateint, [we're] a work in progress"

Just got to remember that not all guys are morons, infact, all men have some sense, its just a matter of thinking with your right head...

 

Just out of curiosity, because you don't list a profile, how old are you and where are you from?

 

Jen, Michelle suggested I post this for you.These were sent to us from my 50 year old female cousin.

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE

..one old love she can imagine going back to... and one who reminds her how far she has come...
..enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own even if she never wants to or needs to...
..something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...
..a youth she's content to leave behind...
..a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age...
..a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...
..one friend who always makes her laugh... and one who lets her cry...
..a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family...
..eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored...
..a feeling of control over her destiny...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
..how to fall in love without losing herself...
..how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship...
..when to walk away!...
..that she can't change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents...
..that her childhood may not have been perfect...but its over...
..what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...
..how to live alone... even if she doesn't like it...
..whom she can trust, whom she can't, and why she shouldn't take it personally...
..where to go... be it to her best friend's kitchen table... or a charming inn in the woods... when her soul needs soothing...
..what she can and can't accomplish in a day... a month...and a year...

PLEASE READ AND HEED THIS, IT'S IMPORTANT NEWS TO ALL GUYS THAT GO CLUBS OR BARS AND DRINK.

Guys, be more alert and cautious when getting a drink offer from a girl.Good girls out there, please forward this message to your guy friends. And girlfriends, take heed.

There is a new drug called beer, that is essentially in liquid form. The drug is now being used by female sexual predators at parties to convince their male victims to have sex with them. The shocking statistic is that beer is available virtually anywhere!
All girls have to do is buy a beer or two for almost any guy and simply ask the guy home for no-strings-attached sex. Men are literally rendered helpless against such attacks.

************************************************** ******************

MOODS OF A WOMAN

An angel of truth and a dream of fiction,
a woman is a bundle of contradiction,
she's afraid of a wasp, will scream at a mouse,
but will tackle her boyfriend alone in the house.
Sour as vinegar, sweet as a rose,
she'll kiss you one minute, then turn up her nose,
she'll win you in range, enchant you in silk,
she'll be stronger than brandy, milder than milk
at times she'll be vengeful, merry and sad,
she'll hate you like poison, and love you like mad!

MOODS OF SOME MEN


Horny.
