Interesting Story, I kind of feel bad for this guy

[SBW]

This situation should have been over as SOON as she WALKED OVER TO HIM.

I'm damn near apalled at some of the comments about "ripping up the ticket" or "I would have given them the ticket and walked away"... REALLY? You'd let it go THAT FAR?

You are right - It would be over as soon as she did that but there is no way I'd want either of them to see me phazed or getting into a childish strop because of it. I would also be wary of letting her see any sign of insecurity if she met anyone she knew (esp an ex) when we were out - that is almost inviting her to take the p*ss and maybe demean yourself in both her and her pals eyes?

I'd be sizing them up (obviously ), whilst waiting for the right moment to draw a firm line and make a polite and dignified exit.

And I've done this in the past and noticed how the ones who did come back behaved with a lot more respect the next time - A kind of sh*t test maybe?

Emily, " Be a sweetie and wait while I just talk to Jake."
ME," Nah, I came here to see the movie and that's what I am going to do .."
Then I would walk away with BOTH tickets and take my seat.

Definitely good response.
But the way I read it I kind of thought it sounded like he had already given the girl her ticket (who could have foreseen this BS coming?). That's why she kept asking him to give Jake HIS ticket and not asking for both the tickets.

 

[-E-]

And in those situations, yes, I'd have given the guy my ticket and bid them a good evening together with a smile and a handshake for him and absolutely no resentment, then walked away and not let them see any kind of reaction. I'd also let her stew a while before answering (if at all) anything from her when she bothers to get back in touch.

And this, gentlemen, is why women treat men with contempt and disrespect. Because not only can they do whatever they want to us without being called out and dealt with, but they'll also be complimented, paid, and sent on their merry way for the blatant disrespect they've shown.

That's pretty sick, man.

 

[SBW]

Is it sick?

I'd rather find out she was hung-up on some other guy at this point, move-on and not waste any more emotional energy on her than be bothered to call her out on it. Calling her out on what is pretty much a first date would be a massive red flag to me.

And I would not disrespect him if he semed an ok guy - whose only fault was that she was more attracted to him.

However, if she came back and wanted more of me, that would be a different matter altogether - she would know I would not put up with that behaviour again.

Polite and dignified exit?
Are you kidding me? Politeness flew out the window the moment she decided to ditch her date and run over to her ex.

At that point, the only polite thing she'd see from me is my polite BACK as I walk into the theatre on my own.

Come back? Why would you want someone who did this to you to come back? If she ever called me again, I'd just not pick up the phone. If she texted me, I'd simply not reply. A low quality woman is not priviledged enough to speak to me again after pulling that stunt off.

However, if she came back and wanted more of me, that would be a different matter altogether - she would know I would not put up with that behaviour again.

He put up with it the first time, which means that he'd put up with it again. Look, a woman like that is not going to "come back and want more of you", specially when the person she wants to do that with is her ex.

There is no AGAIN here.

It should be: "I would not put up with that EVER."

Something like that is ONE strike and she's OUT.
There's no 2 strikes for that, no redeeming factor for her, it's over in my eyes.

Its scary how stories like this actually happen in real life...sometimes makes me wonder what males have come to nowadays...quite sad

Yup - but that IMO is no reason to lower my personal standards to her level.

Yes, I would be out of there at the first opportunity but not after any kind of strop.

IME some of them will. And you will have learned a few things about them and their level of "friendship"/interest. Then you act accordingly as you feel - Which of course may well mean you don't bother with them again.

It would certainly mean that if I did see them again, it is highly unlikely I'd be looking for more than the odd evening of entertainment from them but on that level, fine. There would certainly be no trust.

Everyone please stop empathizing with this AFC. He had the totally wrong mindset in every way which affected his decision making at every step. All of us here are the 'Jake's, we are winners~ yes that means there must be losers, but who cares? Don't try and put yourself in his shoes and say what you would have done different, because none of us here would have even approached this whole situation in the same way from the very start.

Women are women, they can't help feeling attracted to guys that are attractive. This guy wasn't attractive, he was an emasculated wuss (as demonstrated by the way he meekly surrendered his ticket). Its his responsibility to educate himself and learn how to trigger the desired emotional response in women, not to write sooky sob stories asking everyone to feel sorry for him.

I thought Jake was the ex-boyfriend.

Sorry, but I'm not Jake. I'm not the one watching a movie with my ex at someone else's expense. You're not a winner by being talked to watching a movie with your ex-girlfriend... Once she becomes an ex, she stays an ex. Last thing I need to be doing is taking someone else's movie tickets too.

Also, the post mentions that she SCOLDED Jake... and after that, he concedes to watching a movie to someone HE probably broke up with a week ago?

Nah. The girl's behavior WAS atrocious.

But BOTH of the guys are CHUMPS.

 

[boomerick]

That's possibly the dumbest douche-baggy white knight sav-a-ho pathetic ball-less doormat feminized sensitive-guy Disneylike emasculated retarded thing I have ever read on this board.....

I REALLY hope it's not true.....

If so wussy dude is in for a VERY rough life...

Over and Out.

+1 just for the bold

And Kailex literally took the words right outta my mouth I was just about to say the same thing to d*ckmojo lol

 

[SoldMySoul]

NO wonder most of you guys get screwed over by women . Not one of you correctly addressed the situation with an appropriate response. It seems that you all do not have your response contingencies in place should a women disrespect you.

Forget all that threatrical BS about ripping up the ticket...

That woman's behavior was atrocious. It was a slap in the face for the guy who took her to the movies after HE bought the tickets.
She and he had been "friends" for years, yet when she accidently ran into ex b/f Jake, she dropped her "friend" like a hot coal, and then further insulted him by demanding his ticket for Jake!

IF I were in his position, the following would have happened after Emily spotted Jake and asked me to wait while she chatted to him.

Emily, " Be a sweetie and wait while I just talk to Jake."
ME," Nah, I came here to see the movie and that's what I am going to do .."
Then I would walk away with BOTH tickets and take my seat.
Afterwards, I would lose her number.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This!!!!! Or the poor guy could have said, Fvck both of you fvckers!!! I would not have given the ticket regardless!!! What a huge ego buster!

 

[fatdog]

The fact that this chick even suggested giving the other guy a ticket shows EXACTLY what she thinks of Chump 1: abso-fvcking-lutely nothing.

Not only did she ditch him while they were already on a date, she even got him to PAY for the guy who he got dumped for.

She figured: eh, he'll probably be there next week after he gets over it. If not, its nothing a handjob can't fix.

 

[terran2k]

wowie, there's no way that can be true.

EVERYONE IS WRONG ON THIS THREAD!!

The girl did NOTHING wrong, not a single thing!!

This guy who the story is about, lives life in his own little fantasy world, where he, like a total loserish pvssy thought that he had a date and/or any kind of sexual connection with this girl. He built the whole hanging out session way too much.....who the FVCK buys tickets to a movie before the 2nd person shows up??? Talk about moronic desperation!!

From the girl's point of view, she was just going to kill some time with a friend to hopefully make her feel less depressed about her ex-bf.........and she ran into her ex bf, who seemingly was down to hook up again - this EXCITED her greatly.............she was hoping that this pvssy-guy would be a GOOD friend, and maybe HELP HIS GODDAMN FRIEND out by giving her the purchased movie ticket.

Friends do that for other friends ya know...........it's called doing a favor.........that's how friendship works - the PROBLEM was that this pvssified chump is NOT this girl's friend, he is instead just trying to get in her pants in his own retarded moronic fantasy world........this guy could never be friends with a hot girl, because he is too desperate due to complete lack of sexual experience.

If anything was wrong here, was that the girl wanted to get the ticket for her ex-bf for free, but if she offered to pay for it, everything would have been okay in this situation.

The ENTIRE problem with this situation is caused by the pvssified chumps thoughts - absolutely not the girl's fault!!!!!

 

[hexx]

Lol at the guy for accepting the ticket. On one hand, he makes a good capitalist/economics major, but on the other hand, is a dishonorable POS.

Helping your friend out and then being ditched AND asked a favor is just disrespectful. Too bad the 4channer lacked balls.

It's not ditching if she takes a raincheck with the guy who she thinks is her friend.

Damn, if I was about to go see a movie with a friend, and then a hot ex-gf of mine told me she wants to watch that movie with me, i'd also ask my friend for a favor and just buy the tickets off of him, and tell him i'll make up for it later...........friends need to be cool about this kind of thing.

 

[ArcBound]

True Rescue Mission friends do give favors..But given how the guy was so AFC most likely she knew he was trying to get into her pants, its not like shes innocent to it. So when she asked the guy for a favor it was not as a friend. PLUS SHE KISSED HIM if everyone missed that so at the very least SHE LED HIM ON.

So RESCUE MISSION your argument doesn't hold at all. The girl knew the guy wasn't there strictly as a friend. She just knew he wouldn't have the balls to stand up for himself, and that was the girl's point of view.

 

[hexx]

Yeah, tossing your self-respect out the window for a friend is the correct thing to do everytime.

Note: she did not offer to make it up. Made an excuse that the movie would be bad, etc etc.
