Okay, so tonight I went out with my buddy to go and meet up with this chick and her friends. He's been trying to nail this chick for a while now and he's been getting some pretty serious action, only problem is, she can't bring herself to break up with her boyfriend. So, of course, she's holding out on the sex.
Anyway, we wind up going to a movie (Chicago... Dear GOD! Am I a friend or what? ). Afterwards we go to Denny's. My friend kept telling me afterwards how it was so awkward. Truthfully, I wasn't awkward at all, just REALLY bored. Any girls who say they date older guys because they are more mature are damn hypocrites! These chicks were crazy. Laughing about random stuff and just generally goofing around with each other. Not that I have a problem with that, but this was a bit excessive. They basically kept the conversation between themselves, laughing about stuff that only concerned them, about stuff that had happened earllier that day. So me and my buddy were pretty un-talkative. We had no idea what was going on the whole time. Really, I had nothing to say, I was bored. Pretty much just spent the whole time staring at my drink.
Afterwards my friend kept riding me on how I was such a bad wingman. He kept asking me why I just sat there and didn't say anything. It's not like I didn't talk at all, just not very much. I was pretty quiet. And he didn't exactly speak up all that much either mind you. He told me I should have made small talk and I didn't help him out at all. I guess I was too bored and I didn't have anything to say.
So basically, what could I have done? What should I have talked about? Nothing came to mind. I know I didn't handle it well. I guess I didn't really think about it though. It was just a really boring night, but there could have been something I could have said, wasn't there?
What are things I can do to be a better wingman?
