I have noticed...when a member our friends come to hang out with us...and they bring a hottie with them that's the member of the opposite sex....when he introduces her around...he goes, this is my "Friend" Roxanna. When we all are thinking (yeah right, that's your "hot date" for the evening)

 

Why is that? :laugh:

maybe he's being respectful to her and not overstepping his boundaries and taking it for granted that she's his hot date.

 

or maybe..... she really is just a friend......

Why does it bother you?

this is my "Friend" Roxanna.

 

What would you prefer him to say? This is my f**k buddy for the night? Or this is my piece of ass later on?

 

WHO cares. Reguardless to what you think, he is probably also being considerate of HER feelings. Noone wants to be introduced to everyone as the f**k buddy.

 

This is a very odd question you've asked.

Right.

 

Or do you expect him to say, "This is a girl I'm on a second date with, I can't even remember her last name?"

 

Or, "This is the chick I'm really into but I can't call her my girlfriend yet because we haven't had that discussion?"

 

Who cares what his motives are? You don't announce someone in these ways, you DO, in fact, say, "This is my friend Star Gazer." He was being RESPECTFUL of her. I'd appreciate that if I were her.

 

Very odd question indeed.

HiItsMe, should he say, "this is the hot broad who is kinda out of my league, but Im dropping lots of cash on her in hopes of getting laid"?

 

WTF, Dude?!

 

What do YOU think he should introduce her as?

Bells, by chance were you in a Japanese restaurant last night drinking sake bombs?

 

Just curious...

You guys are funny, maybe his friend should introduce his new girl as a "f**k" buddy, better yet he would be more respectful if he didn't bring these "new" girls around. Jeez!!!

How bout he says "This is my ho, Darlene" and gives her a playful smack on the bottom.:D

Guys who are into me but we've only gone on a few dates introduce me as just 'this is gummy' without adding the friend part (I notice guys who saw me as fwb usually call me a friend). Guys who are into me will then tell his friends/family that he's dating me (because he respects me enough to tell people that he's pursuing me but doesnt want to overstep boundaries by claiming me as his gf). For the most part, his friends/family already know me as the girl he's dating before they even meet me (because a guy into his girl can't contain his excitment and wants to tell everyone). Usually when I hear the guy utter the word 'friend' that is a bad sign for us in terms of a seriuos relationship. I'm not saying it's true but it's just based on my personal experience.

Because if he says anything else he will come across as needy and she will probably loose interest.

I find it best to just introduce her by her name. "This is Amanda"

 

You can't call her your gf, but if you call her "your friend" you may be shooting yourself in the foot and end up Friend ZOned.

By the way, I'm no stranger to sarcasm ;)

 

Okay, Jaded...this is what I was kinda gettin' at, it was one of those rhetorical questions that I wanted answered anyways. Was wanting feedback.

 

But yeah, if you refer to heras "This is my friend, Amanda" you might wind up telling her "Oh ,he just thinks of me as a friend" and then you'll be friendzoned before you kiss her goodnight. lol
