    It was a big gathering of friends and we were all on the cusp of parting ways and saying goodbye. I got distracted and they went on ahead to a pub I had suggested. I guess I blindly hoped I would meet her at the next bar again.

    Silly me.

    Time for me to come clean.

    I am Paula, chatee of the OP. I do indeed study multimedia although I am thinking of dropping out to make my own jewellery. I did indeed endure a tedious conversation about media, filmmaking and 'other things' (Russian constructivist design - how could you have forgotten?) but now must tell you that I have decided to marry my long time admirer John who likes soap operas and The Script.

    You had your chance to have me and you didn't take it so I will sink into the abyss of mass entertainment and mourn the life of avant garde discussions and mediocre sex I could have had with you.


    Fare well whatever your name was again (I forget)!

    It could have been something positively beautiful and perhaps a little ironic.

    Tried the stalking thing. Don't know anyone there at the mo, I'm afraid.

    Seriously though, I just had a quick browse on Bakebook. Thought I'd try on here as a last resort. Not really that desperate although that may seem debatable seeing as I posted in AH, lol. :pac:

    Sorry but how much more desperate can it get, if this is not the limit?

    I'm a man, who's happy in his life. I keep busy, with a lot of projects on top of my work. I met a girl I got on with, I'm very picky when it comes to a woman's looks and this girl really fitted my type of girl I'm attracted to.

    It wasn't so hard to type a couple of keys on a very popular forum to see if I could contact her.

    Forgive me if I go after the things I want. :D

    @Merkin: Thank you.

    Why didn't you ask her for the her phone number that night, if you go after the things you want:pac: Maybe Larry can advise you further

    Normally I would but as I mentioned. There was a huge group of us. She came over to me and asked if there was some good bars to go to. Meanwhile our large group was splitting in two and people were asking me where to go next. There was a lot of commotion and I thought this nice girl really wanted to go to the bar we were heading to and I thought I'd see her there. :(

    Ah well. I'm not fussed. Just you know almost that their may have been something there but you mess it up or a turn of events puts the odds against you, lol


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Defiler Of The Coffin


    Pity Dublin doesn't have a subway system. You could plaster posters all over the place.

    There should be a graph made showing the increasing rate of effort and embarrassment potential relative to the amount of time you waste not getting her number.

    Mate, there's already been five other posters looking for this Paula chick from the other night. She may have seemed interested in your chat but the others all say that they had varying degrees of sexual contact with her.
    She wanted doers not talkers. Sorry OP.

    That's funny. No it wasn't Whelans, i'm afraid. What was your story? I'm curious now, lol.

    Yeah, it would probably get locked in those forums though. Ah not to worry. :D

    I don't mean to sound negative but

    You normally would. How many women do you get hitting on you.
    She asked you if there were any good bars to go to. This is not the same as asking you to go to a bar with her.
    You probably messed up by ignoring her for your friends when trying to organise them. I am sure your friends could have sorted themselves while the love of your night slipped away.

    I see what you are getting at. I was pretty drunk at this stage and I was trying manage things all at once all my mates looking to me for answers as to where to go, last orders. I did ask if I could join her and did chat with her and her friend at her table but there was constant interruptions.

    I suppose it's no excuse, I wasn't thinking right. For some stupid reason the thought didn't pop in to my head, even though it seems like an obvious choice to do.

    Didn't want to leave my mates as we were all out for one particular guy who had come back from the US. I got there late and was only there about 30 mins, if even.

    Not one for this kind of thing but.... I chatted to you last Friday afternoon about taste, texture amongst other things in the local supermarket. I think you are tasty and really wanted to eat more of you. I wanted to walk down the street and bring you where I suggested, but I had to stay with friends.

    Yes, we gonna **** on the bar and have lots of children and name them after you.

    I thought I might invite her for coffee in a sober environment for a chat. See if there's any thing there. OK, I may have posted in idiotic forum but I know how popular AH is and it gives me the lulz in work but I'm not a ****ing idiot.

    Sometimes try to have a little spontaneity in my life and try the odd unconventional method of trying to get things done here and there, lol.

    One time I found an Iphone and wanted to send it back to the person. I used this forum actually and got an idea off a fellow forumer. Based on the idea, I got the Iphone back to the person in Italy. Stranger things happen than a guy trying to find a girl he fancied on a popular forum on a small island with a small population. :pac:

    I met a girl who was a friend of a friend in Kelly's Portrush about 15 years ago, I spent the whole time chatting to her staring at her tits so she's bound to remember me. She was studying Human Nutrition so I nicknamed her Humnut there and then, oh how she laughed at with me.
