tips on drinking?

iChatImage1716284781.jpg
 

I see nothing wrong with the OP going out with another woman. His girlfriend even made the suggestion that he accompany her friend. Im sure the OP is a [del]respectable[/del] nice* guy (I mean come one, he's 23 and asking for drinking advice). Why can't a guy and a girl go out drinking without there being more to it? My girlfriend would be totally cool if I were to go out for drinks with the sexy receptionist here at work. Cuz we'd just be drinking. And then Id have to call her up to come pick me up. Not all girls get crazy jealous when their man talks/hangs out with another woman.


*I had to change my word choice from respectable to nice, cuz any 23 year old who needs drinking advice is hardly respectable.

I kid, I kid

I don't know, man, this isn't going to Starbucks for a caramel macchiato or two, or even going to the local bar with a couple of people from the office. We're talking about going to a bar, you and one other woman, with the plan to get as loaded as possible b.c. you know this chick can put down some cosmos. Just a little different. We all know ackahawl makes you shed your inhibitioins, and makes OK chicks hot and hot chicks even hotter. I haven't done all of the research on it yet, but I think the same probably goes for women, too.

Come on. How many stories that begin with "I got loaded at the bar with my girl's homegirl" have a happy ending?

Oh, wait...
 
Maybe I don't understand because I don't drink for fun, but...
I could see going out on the town with your girlfriend, or your girlfriend going out with her friends...but you going out with your girlfriend's friend? It doesn't make any sense.
Just to get drunk? Wooo...awesome.

If your girlfriend couldn't make it, why was it necessary for you to substitute in her place? It all just seems illogical to me.

I'd like to hear what happened as well, so I think I'll just pull up a seat and wait.

Alcohol only affects your inhibitions so much as you let them. Ive been drunk, and Ive been wasted beyond all recognition, and still never crossed any line I wouldnt have done completely sober. Im just saying, if I told my girl I was going out to get wasted with another chick, she wouldnt care. And the reason she wouldnt care is because she knows aint nothing gonna happen but me getting wasted.

True, and maybe I shouldn't have said that ackahawl makes you shed your inhibitions, but that it does let your guard down. Some more than others. I know I've done things under the influence that I wouldn't have done sober (nothing that would amount to me cheating on my wife, or anything else too crazy, thank God).

Being a man who is as experienced in relationships with the womenfolk as you are, I'm sure you would agree that they all lie along a spectrum of crazy jealousness. Left Eye of TLC would be at one end (burning down a man's house), most would be somewhere in the middle, and from what you have posted about your girl so far, she seems to be toward the other end. Which would make you guys the exception, not the rule.

But I guess all of these things are immaterial. It is now the next day for the OP, and I will expect a full report. Pics and videos, and the ones that would earn an infraction should be PM'ed to me.

I came back in thinking I should post that, my girl is certainly the exception to the rule. My ex was pretty close to the other end of the extreme. I couldnt even look at an attractive woman without a fight breaking out.

YES! Come on OP, everyone is dying to know how your night went.
