Every now and then you meet a woman that just knocks your socks off. This happened to me at a friend’s wedding this past Saturday, where I met MM. She was just freaking awesome. Things were going well, dancing and having a great time, she is the complete package. But the problem was I had to get back home and work of a proposal. The temptation was to get a hotel room, stay until we got kicked out of the reception and spend the night there instead of driving two and a half hours back home to work.
Driving back, because I had almost three hours thinking about this, wishing I lived in a dream world and surrender to magical thinking. But I had work to do and that was more important. When things like this happen it is critically important to you sanity and well-being to remember that reality is what it is, and wishing things were different can and will fvck up your life.
This sounds like at best a long distance relationship and more typically a one night stand. Does this woman live in the same city as you do?
Weddings and Funerals are emotional events that lead women to being ready to hook up that night.
I have had a same night lay from a wedding. However, I'd like to share my experiences from the flurry of weddings in my social sphere that took place between 2015-2020. My same night lay from a wedding was pre-2015.
During the 2015-2020 flurry of wedding in my social sphere, there was almost no hooking up and no LTRs formed among the attendees of these weddings. These weddings were couples between 28-35 having first weddings. Most of the social circles of the marrying couples were other couples in LTRs/stable relationships. The guy I have considered my closest friend for the past decade had a wedding with over 100 attendees and 0 unattached people under age 45. There were 0 one night stands from that and 0 LTRs formed from that wedding reception.
People get married much later in life now. At 2010 and later weddings, the typical 27-33 year old wedding attendee is coming to the wedding with their significant other. A decline in marriage rates does not equate into a decline in couplehood.
In situations like the ones that have happened in my social circle, few unattached men showed up to those weddings because the unattached men knew that there would be 0 unattached women showing up.
If social circles lead to relationships, people are introduced well before a wedding reception.
The only time that a wedding reception could lead to a blossoming romance is if a couple gets married early in life and most of their social circle is still too young to have attachments. That type of wedding is getting less common.
In certain types of weddings, there are instances of sex. It's also possible that my social circle is a bit lame on hooking up and forming new connections.
