You know what I wish...
| Mon, 03-19-2007 - 10:15am |
I just read that one girl's post where she is 29 and all her friends are taken/married and/or have kids and therefore she has no girlfriends to go to bars with so she can meet guys. I am in the exact same boat but worse - I'm 36. So you know what I wish? I wish there was a web site, kind of like a myspace but it would be a "Girl's Night Out" site where you could search by your city and see if there are any other girls exactly like you - who really want to go out on a particular night (like St. Patrick's Day) - especially when there will be a lot of guys out (like the NCAA basketball tournament - a zillion guys go to bars to watch these games). I mean heck maybe we wouldn't meet any great guys but what if we made some actual girl friends? Man I would love that. We should come up with something like this - I bet it would be a popular site. I might have actually just given myself an Idea. If I act on it I will keep you all posted. love fzz

Not sure where you're from, but Boston, New York, and San Francisco have a site called Hey! Let's Go!
Being a male, for some reason I can just not gather up the courage to go and talk to someone if they are with a group of friends. If someone is by themself, I usually have no problem going up and talking to them. But seeing someone out by herself is very rare.
I have tried to talk to girls that are in groups before, but just can't seem to click with them, and I find myself just hovering around, and so I end up walking away to avoid looking like a lost puppy. (That's actually what I feel like when I try to engage in conversation with a group of girls, I just can't seem to ever connect with them.)
I'm sure doing stuff like going to a bar during a big basketball game might work if there were men there who felt confident enough (And knew how to include themself in a group of women) but as for me, if I see a group of women, I don't tend to try to interact with them anymore, as it just never did work for me.
