Clep Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 I am surprised that the woman didn't catch on to his tactics. It is not a friend that would try to ruin a happy time for you that could not find one of his own. Might be an idea to find someone to hang out with that is more secure with himself and less self centered.

Ody Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 I'd say about 20 people were in the hotel room (including CB), and I commenced to get this girl's number. Long story short, I was taking stuff out of my pockets, so I could change my clothes (this was in the hotel room). I accidentally pulled out a condom that was in my suit pocket, but I thought nobody had noticed it. Well, CB saw it and said, "Why the hell do you have that, you can't fit into those anyway." (I have to wear a certain type of rubber that fits). The girl I had been talking to heard all of this. Now, I told CB to shut his trap, as he had been acting really childish with his ways the entire night. He then said, "What? You thought you were going to sleep with X girl. Yeah right." He was talking about the girl I was interested in, who happened to be sitting right there. So, even though that was not my intention at all, she ended up leaving five minutes later. If she was really into you the condom thing wouldn't have chased her away. Women aren't that naive, and just because she knew you had a condom didn't mean you would have to hook up at the after party or anything. She left because she just wasn't that into the idea. You say you got her number. Did you try calling or texting a day or two later? If you didn't, then you are just using your friend as an excuse.
Author SimpleSam Posted November 12, 2009 Author Posted November 12, 2009 I did end up talking to her yesterday. And she wants to go out, so all in all, I guess I came out ahead. And no, I'm not trying to make my friend's behavior as an excuse for failing. When I talked to this girl on the phone yesterday, she did bring up the situation. She basically said that she left because my friend was getting on her nerves. She could tell that he was jealous, because apparently he had tried to ask her out when they both lived in Atlanta. And she said no. He never told me about this, so it made a lot of sense. I felt a little vindicated after that conversation with her. The whole point of the thread was venting about guys like my friend who are so possessive about who they like, that no one else can have an interest in them. Which is exactly what happened this weekend. He's the type of guy that if he has a "crush" on some girl, he thinks that no other guy should be allowed to pursue her (even if said girl is single). I just do not understand my friend's mindset whatsoever.
