counterman Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Well, there's this big college party coming up. It's at a bar with over 600 people attending and NONE of my friends are going. I really want to go but in the past, when ever my friends didn't want to go, I would have to miss out. I don't want to miss out. However, I don't know anyone there. It'll be a good place to meet girls outside my area of study, but it's really the first time I've been out completely solo. So, what are some advice? I want to have fun first and foremost. Say, I meet a girl that catches my eye, how should I approach it?
baguette Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 As far as I can tell, you have nothing to lose and all to gain. With that many people you can easily move on if you're not feeling the vibe. It'll be uncomfortable at first, but so is anything you do in life for the first time. Maybe have a beer first haha.
angielove Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Good on you! I find I miss out on stuff a lot cuz none of my friends want to come with me and I'm too scared to go alone I'd like to give just one piece of advice, and I hope you don't get offended... If you talk to a girl and she asks why you are alone, reply with "my friend just left... I was having so much fun that I decided to stay!" or something of that nature.
Emilia Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Say, I meet a girl that catches my eye, how should I approach it? start chatting with guys first and see who is looking to meet up with girls (most without girlfriends I'd imagine) and get a wingman that way

Thank you. You're right, there is a first for everything. All the times that I have passed invitations to parties because of my friends not wanting to go, I have regretted it afterwards. Again, you're right, I can move on and I'll have a blast with someone eventually. I might have a couple of beers to get me in the mood Good on you! I find I miss out on stuff a lot cuz none of my friends want to come with me and I'm too scared to go alone I'd like to give just one piece of advice, and I hope you don't get offended... If you talk to a girl and she asks why you are alone, reply with "my friend just left... I was having so much fun that I decided to stay!" or something of that nature. I completely understand that. I'm not scared but rather intimidated and uncomfortable about the idea. But maybe it's cause I've never been in to a party alone. Not offended at all. Thank you for the advice; I didn't think of it, so yeah. If you hadn't told me, a girl could have asked me that and I may hesitate. Woops Besides I will have people I know there, but they have their own friends and I don't really hang out with them. start chatting with guys first and see who is looking to meet up with girls (most without girlfriends I'd imagine) and get a wingman that way Cool, that shouldn't be a problem. I have noticed a wingman, the right one that is, really boosts my confidence when it comes to approaching girls. I heard from the organiser that there will be plenty of European chicks I am by all means not looking to get laid, but just have some fun, without my friends. Oh, and I am not much of a dancer. Or should I say I haven't tried? Would that matter? Any other tips? Like buying drinks and whatnot?
