Parting shot fail: "Gonna go home and watch some porn"

[Zarky]

I have an ex-gf and we're both still friends. We tell each other about our goofy dating experiences.

Keep in mind that this is a chick I boned on our first date almost 9 years ago. I'm just sayin'...

So she went out with a guy to a bar on a first date. He was ok, but for whatever reason she wasn't that into him. They were talking at the bar about bland stuff, then he pulled out his phone and sent her a text message that said, "Want to come back to my place?" She read the text message, looked at him, and declined the offer. Then he started to argue with her about how she should come back and have sex with him. She said no to his various arguments. Finally he got up and said, "Fine, I'm gonna go home and watch some porn!" and stormed out.

This struck the two of us as perhaps one of the most pitiful parting shots ever.

Just thought I'd share. We're all at least somewhat trained in seduction by now, but this is what the average muggle (non-initiate) guy throws at the average girl on an average date.

Fine! I'm going to go home and masturbate using my own tears of rejection as lube. I will be thinking about you while I do it. I'll text you tomorrow to see if you changed your mind.

In a 'business' where you should be lighthearted and not take things too seriously, you are making too much of a big deal of this, Zarky.

That guy could have been trolling for his own amusement (or for his friends' amusement), he could have been trying out crazy sh!t for calibration, etc.

Where you think 'wow, what a freak', I think 'lol, what a story'.

How is he taking this too seriously or making a big deal out of it? If I heard a story like this, I'd be on here writing about it too. It's too funny/weird not to share.

The fact that he got angry enough to storm out of the bar tells me that he wasn't trolling or....calibrating...whatever that means in the dating world.

I think the purpose of Zarky sharing this story was, "What a story."

Or am I supposed to think that the other guy is cool for texting a girl to have sex with him while sitting 12 inches away from her at a bar? Oh, and then getting mad at the rejection. Hell, even if he was trolling as you suggested, what kind of grown man dedicates time out of his schedule for that. "I'm gonna spend 2-3 hours trolling some dates tonight!!"

That's nothing, when a date I went on went downhill fast, I stormed off and registered an account on Loveshack.

Exactly! It funny and weird.
But the OP talks about pitiful parting shots and about the lame actions of Joe Schmoe, like there is something to be learned from it.

Putting up an act is totally out of discussion, eh? Something like ''guy is looking for an easy lay, won't get it, so he decides to split early & mess with the girl's head''. Or ''guy plays funny game for entertainment''.

There was once a dude here, on sosuave, who was open to all sorts of approach-related challenges, from funny to lame to outrageous. Also, there were plenty other guys who asked for sex 2 minutes after introducing themselves to new girls.
They must've been totally serious and those must've been their best/real skills, right?

Hell, even if he was trolling as you suggested, what kind of grown man dedicates time out of his schedule for that. "I'm gonna spend 2-3 hours trolling some dates tonight!!"

Maybe he found a couple of available hours is his supertight schedule and called his secretary to book them for some dating trolling.
That way he could avoid getting dry and superserious like some members here. Sheesh!

LOL @ myself how I almost became that guy's defender, which I totally didn't mean to do.
Bottom line(s): not everything that flies is to be eaten & taking things up too seriously svcks.

 

[Zarky]

Yeah, he wasn't "trolling."

I was relating what a particular AFC did on a date which I and my ex found funny and sad. And since I'm generally not privy to their behavior because I don't consider myself to be one and I don't hang out with them (I don't hang out with many guys frankly), I found it interesting and a little informative. If you didn't, move on.

I enjoyed this story, thanks for sharing Zarky.

I would bloody love to know the logic and thought process this guy was going through with this tactic.

 

[Atom Smasher]

You guys are cruel.

So I was having an off night. Is that a crime?

 

[Zarky]

Lol

The sad part is, I bet this guy will never understand how beta his behavior is. Very, very few men have any game whatsoever. Not because they're stupid, but because they've never been trained. How many guys are actually trained in how to seduce women, or at the very least how not to be a tool? Unless you're lucky enough to stumble upon that information or have an older brother or something who knows what's up, you'll walk through life like this guy.
