    Years ago I lived in this big old mansion of a place in the country, rented a couple of rooms in it, when two Spanish girls who were friends of another girl living there came to stay for a week, we chatted a few times over meals and I took them to see the sights and stuff, then just a day or so before they left they said they were off on a trip round the world and 'why don't you come with us?' Took me by surprise. I had a fair bit of money saved but I was a couple of weeks into a new job that I liked and after a bit of a think about it said no, another time might have been different. I'll forever wonder though how it would've turned out. They were quite flirty.:D

    If that's them, you're an idiot for not going.

    Whether they thought it or not, I think you may well be fully gay.

    Why didnt you make your move during the week they were in your mansion?:confused:

    Fully? :pac: As opposed to just a bit?
    Nah I annoy meself with the thought of what a round the world trip with two spanish girls might have been like (or two girls of any nationality) but on the plus side, that job I didn't want to give up is where I met my gf. Can't complain really.

    i was kinda seeing a girl in first year, a real bombshell. we hadnt kissed or anything like that but it was progressing. i followed a policy of not going out during weekdays in college because i made an arse of two attempts at college before and i was determined to abandon my party life. anyway, long story short, a snow storm came over the country and college got canceled and it was mid week too. the girl txted me and asked me to go out but i got cold feet because i didnt know any of her friends so was too anxious. she didnt speak to me after that! the moral of the story, be prepared to take opportunity at a moments notice...[sigh]

    Hugs and kisses.

    I'm sure your gf is at least twice as amazing as the both of them, and doesn't nag.

    And they seem quite superficial, with all their "look at my hot bod" vids.

    Who would you discuss this Cartesian nightmare with?

    Holy crap I just googled 'Claudia and Mayte' and saw what you're talking about :pac::pac::pac::pac::pac::pac: haha that's freaky and total coincidence coz THAT'S NOT THEM!!!
    Lol. Their names were Claudia and Mayte alright, and they were fit and all but no, not those two. Mental...

    Btw they were Basques from San Sebastian, and not like those two airheads ffs lol.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭psychward


    you should have walked up to her and said anything , made a fool out of yourself , anything, absolutely anything but relied upon something very normal and boring as that's all you needed to be if she truly liked you anyway . Just so you could then walk away with some peace of mind having exposed her for the sociopathic cockteasing timewaster she probably was :pac:



    *edit* just realised this thread is from 2009* meh

    HAH!
    Okay. Shame that lasted so long for so little, and that you've ruined my dreams. Not my wet ones though. You've enhanced those. You've only ruined my regular dreams.

    maybe she was a hooker and she recognized you.

    What does the punter do in that situation... wait, I think that has been covered in a thread before. Polite nod, isn't it?

    Met a stunning ozzie girl in a bar in Melbourne. Couldn’t believe my luck with her.

    Didn’t kiss her but got her number.

    Next week shes in the city and asks me to go out to a bar with her and her friend.

    I arrive, stonecold sober and with my new job to start in the morning (It was a Sunday night).
    Wasn't exactly "on the buzz".

    At the end of the night she asked me to go with her back to hers. She lived miles out in the burbs.

    I had about 20 dollars in my bank account if even, couldn’t drink or buy her a drink for this reason and finally got a job.

    I couldn’t risk staying in hers and then getting public transport at 6am back home. I still didn’t know the burbs well and I couldn’t afford taxi.

    I regret not going back to hers that night coz it was my chance. Now Im a boring old 9-5er !

    OP responded back, which was cool. However, old thread is old.
