irc333 Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 Recently, a male friend of mind invited me to this Meetup he was a member of which was a local social group...the group mostly consisted of single people, with a few couples thrownin. He seemed pretty gung-ho about going and talked me into it. He knows some of the people of the group rather casually, but not that well, but he is recognizable by some. It was at a dance club/restaurant. Well, the organizer had the trademark "Meetup" sign on the table, quite a few people were sitting around that table, but my friend decided to choose the table one table away from the main group table. THe organizer waved him to join them, but he jestured he was fine where he was....I was sitting with him for a time...but I felt a bit foolish sitting AWAY from the group like he was...so I was like screw it and went and mingled with the group table. I don't know what got up his arse, but it was kind of embarrassing....he never even danced. I have heard he's been reading up on "How to create attraction with women" articles / books lately, and I'm thinking this his weird method of attracting women. He won't admit it to ME though, but that's my only guess. To me, it just looked like he had hair up his arse or may be he read "How to be a wallflower to attract women" chapter and was testing out his theory? I dunno. People did approach him just to converse in general, then some ladies that we hadn't seen in a long time...female friends approached us and did some catching up. I figured this would at least get him motivated to join us dancing, but I wound up dancing with the both of the ladies, and he stayed behind, at the table....they asked, "Where's Bill at?" and I embarrassingly said, "He's still sittin' up there" I would stop by the table to check on him occasionally, would try to converse about the people and the pretty ladies in the club, but all he was taking notice was the content of the video that played during the dance music and how funny the charaters in the video looked or how some of the architecture in the building look compared to the way it was years ago. Yeah, very strange topics of conversation at a dance club, right? Then, some of us were all leaving at one time, including the ladies we knew real well....but he backed off walking them to their car...and I wound up stuck with him while he was pretending to look at the skyline....he told me he purposely stayed back so it didn't seem like "he was following them" And I was like "Um....we know them pretty well, I'm sure they think we won't do questionable things to them, right?" So was this some kind of weird attempt to attract women? Now, I have heard him say how it's important to back off women after talking with them and such, but he's been doing it to the EXTREME rather. LIke he's purposely going out of his way where it's extremely awkward...ever hear of people like this?
