My mates dropped out and his girlfriend (don’t Ask) wants to know if I want to go. Anyone been. Crap or a laugh?

don’t mention your luminous crack.

No, but I’ve been dating on speed. Not recommended

don’t Ask

Never gonna happen!

Erm, so let me get this straight…..your mate, who has a “girlfriend”, has dropped out of going speed dating and his girlfriend wants to know if you want to go?

What’s the real story?! Is this a “girlfriend” or a “girl friend”?

Once, 15 odd years ago.
Left early for the pub, in company.
Brilliant evening from that point on………

Went once and enjoyed it. Lots of conversations with mostly interesting people with the added bonus that you might come out of it with a girlfriend, what have you got to lose.

P.S. You have to explain the girlfirend, mate and speed dating situation.

I met my (now) wife speed dating….. Observations are:

The women were normal, the men were all weirdos (hello!).
The women were all there with a mate, the blokes were all there by themselves. So make sure you go with somebody: in the bar afterwards the women were all chatting to their mate, therefore instant advantage if there are also two of you. Being there with a woman might not be that helpful in this scenario.
Have a couple of questions ready to go in case the person opposite you is as dull as dishwater – 3 minutes is a long time with some people.

Oh, and get a couple of drinks down you beforehand.

No I took the fine and 3 points.

You will require username change if you don’t share the information, sonny boy.

Ok here we go. My mate has a girlfriend. Who also has a boyfriend. My mate is outdoor boyfriend. Her other bf is indoor boyfriend. She’s decided that she’s ready to upgrade outdoor boyfriend, so they’re both going speed dating. For her to upgrade and him to find someone else. It was this or swinging…

IME it was a laugh, don’t expect much more though.

wysiwyg – if your email address is anything to go by, you need to attend the dating sesh. 😉

Hasn’t this arrangement been mentioned on here a few years ago (wierded me out then as well)?

P.S. Can we have a picture of this girlfriend? She must be rather striking to be able to pull off such an arrangement or own a full Snap On tool chest, can’t think of any other reason.

Yupp. It’s all tres odd.

What the hell is an outdoor and indoor boyfriend?

What’s an indoor / outdoor boyfriend

If you’re going to be posting Monty Python images, surely it should be Poly the Parrot?

So if your mate has dropped out, is he planning on being part of a foursome now? Where do you fit into this?

Yup I agree.. all very odd but hey, it’s their life n all. However I did know a girl at Uni who “entertained” a number of my mates on more than one occasion.. Nice Girl, came from Ambleside, long dark hair, sexy little thing in all honesty..
Same Girl perhaps?

What does one expect from these types of events? A quick shag, a shag that lasts a month, a shag that turns into babies in 3 months then repeat the whole process?
Dunno, just askin’

Any or all of those I would’ve thought. ie. anything but total rejection!

That didn’t answer the question Bikebouy.

a shag that lasts a month

Wouldn’t that interfere with work a bit?

It’s only the same as having more than one friend, I suppose.

Got to be preferable to sneaking around behind a partner’s back, surely. At least everyone knows where they stand.

I’ll give you an idea of what she’s like. Head of IT networking. Likes DnD.

Indoor bf doesn’t like going out. Likes xbox.

Outdoor bf larger geek. But does ride a bike.

All three came to the pub quiz once. My mate had to leave it was that awkward. I’m still not sure if indoor is aware of outdoor.

a shag that lasts a month

You are Sting (real name Gordon Sting) and I claim my £5.

So does the outdoor bf ever get to go indoors?

Likes DnD…larger geek

so the indoor bf is some sort of RPG Dwarven games mage whilst the outdoor bf is your typical Half-orc anti-hero?

Well, all things considered shes good at the networking bit, and whats DnD ? should that be DnB?

We should have a vote which one she keeps, then vote on the new proposition.. 😆

Think she’d like that??

Now my head really does hurt. All those acronyms.

For Cougar.

Tried this: http://www.confused.com

Seemingly doesn’t cater for this type of scenario?!

a shag that turns into babies in 3 months

I’m not a parent, but I thought it took longer than that to grow a baby?

We are talking about speed dating

I’m guessing DnD is dungeons and dragons, not Dave and Derrick?

My mate is outdoor boyfriend. Her other bf is indoor boyfriend

Am I the only one wondering what would happen if she was kneeling on the doorstep? Dirty Girl! 😳

I reckon she would probably be up for a bit round the back anyway, sounds like a right minx
