HEY ROMANTICS, HELP ME

The Riddler · August 04, 2009, 08:46:12 PM

This girl, really cute, really good friend, texted me earlier asking if I'm busy on the 10th.
I say no plans yet, but she doesn't respond.
I finally get in touch with her and ask her what was up, and she said she was gonna ask me to go on an adventure to Conneticut with her (ferry ride from Long Island) to see some bands she likes, but decided against it since she knew I'd hate the bands and didn't wanna drag me along, and ultimately decided against it altogether and isn't going.
I looked up the bands, yeah they're poop.
SO WHAT DO I DO?
SUCK IT UP, PRETEND I LIKE THEM, SPEND THE TIME WITH HER ALONE FOR A WHOLE DAY ON AN ADVENTURE?
Or say intercourse it and don't go?

in retrospect this seems simple enough.

It's not about the bands, it's about the girl.

If you don't go, I'll have to take your man card.

It's such ear rape ;_;

Suck it up and go.

Go, but also tell her that you only went for her. But you have to say it good, not make her feel bad. Don't say, "These bands are crap, but at least I got to hang out with you"

Say something like, "Doesn't really matter if these guys were good or bad, at least I got to be here with you" :3

Macawmoses · August 04, 2009, 10:18:03 PM

Really? You guys say go? Pah.

If you don't like it, be honest, and say you don't want to go. Find a compromise - for instance, offer to take her to a movie. Honestly, relationships aren't about getting what you want, it's about compromise.

She did that specifically to make you go crazy. She succeed. Listen to one of the songs and try to remember a part so it seems like you like them, then convince her you do so she'll go with you.
What Magnum said may work, but she will feel a little guilty the whole time.

Custom · August 04, 2009, 10:34:06 PM

Go. The whole time just think

"At least she isn't taking me to see THIS band"

*THIS:

Uh, yeah.
Do what Custom said.

>_<

My personalized advice:

Ditch the ninny and find a girl ready for a whirl.

That seems to be your style, anyway.

I'm far more in support of this then "oh be a good guy and endure poopty music".

Mack needs to feel the love :3

Really, using myself as an example, if the person I am interested in wanted to see something like that (say, a concert of this odd alternative boy band that she likes that I don't), I would not hestitate to go with her.

If you really like her, you would have more fun at that concert than a concert with artists you actually like.

Mack doesn't seem to realize that while getting a door slammed on your foot may hurt, at least you're foot's in the door.

The Riddler · August 05, 2009, 06:57:02 AM

Did I mention the Ferry is 51 dollars both ways with my car, +10 dollars for the concert and whatever gas I need?

Tsumaru · August 05, 2009, 07:17:53 AM

Just how pretty and endearing is this girl, Rob?
