I was talking to a friend on how he got turned down after chatting up a girl while on assignment in quite possibly one of the funniest way possible. Even he admitted it was pretty funny albeit he said he died a little inside. I have to give it to my friend there who had the guts to pull off something like that and turned the tables on what could have possibly been a very awkward moment thanks to his quick wit. Totally worth staying up to hear that story but nearly died at work.
We have all seen it in TV dramas, films etc. on how guys will try to bars, clubs, coffee places and other places of interest and try to chat up a girl in the hopes that some random stranger might be interested in going out for dates. My sister has had guys try and do the same, though she is a little bit more cunning. To put it lightly, she gets free drinks and gets away with it. This is the part that does not compute with me. Time after time, presumably the same guys who go in night after night "hunting", buy drinks and may not even see any results whatsoever. Isn't it futile? I just don't understand it.
Which means to say that even though my friend there took a chance on a stranger and failed but in a graceful manner, it is still something that I would not bring myself to do even though based on first impressions it looks good. Perhaps I'm just too guarded or maybe just old-fashioned. Some friends of mine try to fix me on the outside using some crowd-sourcing methods so that I would magically transform into this suave gentlemen who would have the aura and the guts to pick up random girls. That's not how I roll yo. Not to mention that the very idea of trying to pick up random girls is, to me, unthinkable. On a side note, this joint effort to transform me came out from jumping the gun on certain Twitter messages that was meant for my interview to get me my current job. Wrong context people.
