Other Guy Friends Knock You In Front Of Women

[INXS]

Has anyone else ever noticed that when you are out sarging and your guy friends will knock you in front of the women? (IE - Poke fun of you or try to make you look stupid?)

I've found the best way to deal with it is to ignore them, because I personally think if you take the time to deal with it, then you are being taken away from the big objective.

Any thoughts on this topic?

Handle it? I'd just stop calling the 'friends'. I hate intrigants.

Me and my freinds take the piss out of each other in a joking way, though if anything we do it a lot less aroung girls then we do when its just us. If they are bringing you down infront of girls to make you look bad then they are not your freinds and you should have done something a long time ago, ditch them now.

 

[mexican_player2]

i have the same problem as you INXS so now what im gonna do is tell them
"shut the **** up ese you have problems with me dog well then we'll handle it like real man"

and if he continues to make fun of me i'll beat his ass

if you ignore them people will think you are weak and you lose RESPECT

 

[Potbelly]

if they keep doing that just stop hanging out with them. don't tolerate disrespect. I remember in this player supreme podcast he talked about this. if people don't respect you, FOCK that "we're firends we can fok again w/each other" SHIET. FOCK THAT SHIET MAN. Lay down the damn law. who the fvck does this dude think he is talkin sh1t about you and ****blockin your ass???? yea that's my take on it

Me and my friends love to joke and play around, and yes my friends always do this to me, like the want to see me approach because I'm the only one who does it in the group. But like right when I move from them the comments start flooding out and since I'm used to joking around with them I just laugh while they play around. Sometimes they go over board like this one time a friend of mine made a comment when he was sitting around 4-5 girls and 3 of them I gamed before. So after I had these girls **** testing me asking if it is true and sh!t. But in the end I was able to turn it around, I think you should just tell your friends not to covkblock and if they want to come join you then they may do so but don't try and fuvk it up for you because your trying to talk to girls. But most friends are doing it just for fun atleast my friends are.

It's a game. Just diss them back.
If they diss you in serieus way, then they are not your friends.
Me and my friends say nasty **** to each other all the time. If you can't handle it then it's YOUR problem, not of the guy who made the comment.

That's why I hate sarging with friends, man. They get competitive and resort to making you look worse so that they look better by comparison. I don't even think it's out of disrespect most of the time, they just don't like being seen as the beta males of the group.

 

[flexion_]

Get different friends for sarging.

 

[Le Parisien]

If they are just buddies who bust on you, it's ok.

If you are a naturally confident and funny guy, you can actually turn this around and show how much of a cool guy you are. Sure if you are not socially smart, you will feel awkward and "put down".

But... if they are seriously mean and insulting, then they are NOT your friends, find some true friends.

 

[Hitman10000]

Men that are your friends will respect you for who you are and not talk down on you or even make you look dumb. They're not vibing positively with you and probably shouldn't even be considered your friends. I think it's better than you do things on your own even if you're with a male best friend.

 

[Krassus]

They're not your friends.

 

[Randomer]

How bout do whatever you would've done without the female there, why should that matter anyway? I can't imagine that you'd just take everything when it's just you and your friends with no girls around so... why should having a girl there with you change anything?

Oh and if they really are friends, then they're not REALLY trying to be mean and put you down, they're just joking around with you... right? So why ignore them when they're just joking around? Get right back at them when they say anything! That's the fun part!

It's one thing when they joke around, it's another when they completely kill the joke. If they're the only ones laughing, screw them. This happened to me a few months ago.

I have some porn on my computer, who doesn't? Anyways I was talking to some girls, and they start saying "watch out for this kid, he's a pervert", I could live with that. Then they started saying that all I do is spend my weekends downloading porn, and that I dim the lights, light candles, and play romantic music for myself. As intriguing as it sounds, that's not me. I prefer week nights. Seriously though...

The girls gave this weird look like "ok you can shut up now", as the guys were the only ones laughing. It was a total mood killer. Sucked the fun right out of the conversation. Haven't seen those guys in months.

 

[Randomer]

Yea um... alone would be different but when they're doing that in front of the girl it just seems like they're *trying* to make things uncomfortable. that's a good example of what genuine friends wouldn't do =/ smart choice w/ not seeing them for some months

 

[Tomatoes]

My friends know i take sarging very serious. I dont mind them making me look like a fool normally...Its all in the fun of things.

But if a mate tried anything on when I was sarging I would give him a look of "Your not going to wake up with testicals unless you stop RIGHT now!".

I would also lay into him abit later on.

I have done it twice when a mate ****ed up my chances with a girl.



Sarge On!

Making fun of your friends while sarging is something "rookies" do. Its funny because I used to do this,but I have grown since. Why make fun of others when we are not perfect ourselves? Just respond with "wow you are the most mature person I have met". Don't encourage their stupidity.

 

[JJMcLure]

They are AMOG'ing you! The power of it is that it's a joke, so you get confused as to how to respond - you don't want to look like the guy who can't take a joke, but underneath it just feels wrong somehow (like the joke's on you). That's because the joke IS on you - they are lowering your value to raise theirs, showing the chicks THEY are the alpha in the group.

You need to respond to it by busting them even harder. It is better if it's funny, but if you don't have anything right there then an outright diss is better than nothing (they don't have to be in on the joke, but its better if you and the chick can at least smile about it). Just don't act mad because then you lose control, face and the ability to play your response off as "just a joke". If he complains, you turn it round on him that HE can't take a joke. There are some good generic one liners you can throw back at someone if you don't have a good response. Search mASF for "amog" or "amog tactics".

In front of chicks, you need to make sure YOU'RE the one coming out on top in these type of interactions with your "friends" (who are c0ckblockers by the way, and poor wingmen). If you just let the comments slide, it comes across the other guy "has the right" to say stuff to you and make you look stupid in front of strangers because he is "above" you in the social hierarchy.

Although it's a hassle you might prefer didn't exist, it's a useful skill to be able to handle this, because you will get challenges like this from AMOGs who aren't your friends when in a set, and also in other parts of your life.
