So tonight I went to one of the meetings for this social networking site. It was a pubcrawl tonight for 25-35 year olds. Forgive me if my typing is atrocious, but I've been drinking since 7pm. So I recognized some people from previous meetings, which was good, and met some new people that were pretty nice and some other people who were pretty weird. So, immediately I noticed this one guy, D, who was pretty cute standing close by. Well, we talked for a bit initially, but then we separated and talked to a bunch of other people within the group.
So, unlike other pubcrawls I've been to, this one was pretty different, we only went to 4 bars. At the last bar, the guy, D, was talking to me more and the more we talked the more I realized he was really drunk. The reason I could tell was because he got weirder and weirder as he got drunker. He was just saying really odd stuff. Anyway, at the last bar he was touching my knee and legs more and more and pressing himself more up against me, which honeslty, was like a breath of fresh air; I mean it felt nice to know that someone was actually showing signs of interest.
Although, at this last bar, there was a dance floor and me and another girl decided to go dance to the eighties music and D decided to follow us and dance. Omigod, he was by far the WORST dancer I've ever seen, doing these weird moves I've never seen before. So this other girl and I were trying our best not to laugh, but I know dancing is not most guy's strong suit.
So then we took a break and were chatting and this guy says to me, "I just want to let you know that I have an ex-wife who's gay and I have a child with her. I'm telling you this because I like you." I was like uh...okay. I mean, I had nothing prepared to say to that. What do you say to that? I actually said, "oh, so you're like Ross from Friends?" Ridiculous. I mean really, is this all that's left out there for me? Do I have to deal with divorcees now? with children? I mean, I know I should be open-minded, but this is just so much baggage for me. Sigh. I'm so drunk, I'm going to bed now.

first of all i have to say that i'm impressed that you went for a meeting for a social networking site. frankly if i had to do that alone i don't think i could.
"he was touching my knee and legs more and more and pressing himself more up against me, which honeslty, was like a breath of fresh air; I mean it felt nice to know that someone was actually showing signs of interest." - i laughed when i read that 'coz there are times when i understand just what you mean.
and i actually thought your ross comment was rather witty. i wouldn't have thought of a single thing to say and probably just stare blankly and be like "oh okay" haha!
well hopefully in the next meeting you'll find a better guy... with far less baggage...
Wow, I must have been pretty hammered because I don't even remember writing that haha.
But, yeah, I have been trying to do more things. It's harder with drinking events because I get nervous getting to and from them alone since I have to walk to public transportation.
For the most part, everyone was really nice. There definitely were some freaks there and I tried to stay clear of them, it's just hard when some of them are freaks in disguise!
Ha! I like the Ross comment too! And it's sad what kind of men that are left to choose from, isn't it?
