My feeling is so what? There a million bars, it doesn't work out, new bar can be found. You guys are old bar hounds, I don't get the feeling that iwrock has been going to this bar for 25 years

I think he's 25, so yes, I'd have to agree with that.

Take her out and get it on. At your age, it will not likely be the last hook-up, but it has potential to be the next....
If it doesn't work, maybe you can still hang at the same bar maybe you can't..
Maybe she leaves, maybe you do... maybe you have to order drinks that come canned or bottled from now on...
Either way, never turn down a piece that you have interest in.
There's a lot of women out there, and it is your job to try and find the right one, and you can do that being the wallflower... (I'm laughing about that idea even as I write it...iwrock a wallflower....HA!!!)

What ever happened to the chick up on shoulders at the rave?
Ex-girlfriend of a buddy?
She's not the bartender I take it?

What would be even easier is for you to not post in threads where you have nothing to add....
Not everyone on this forum has just hidden behind their keyboards and taken pot shots at people. Many here have actually met face to face, and are actually real live people friends, so your quotations on friends really only applies to you, sir.

Besides, I've read a number of TMI posts regarding the state of your love life... At least iwrock's stories are interesting...Maybe if you're nice he will give you some pointers.
BTW, how's the cougar hunt coming anyway? Find a 50yo to spank you yet?

Well I've met quite a few interesting women who were 5 to 10 years older online; I found out it's not hard. And I'm going out for drinks next week with someone whom I work with and who's expressed interest beyond a professional one.

Note that I've been pretty silent on the subject for quite a while. In light of the latter situation (and the fact that, like an idiot, I chose NOT to "crap where I eat" for the "one that got away"), I'm telling the OP "go for it". Better to have regrets about something you did than something you failed to so.

You gonna be afraid of women all your life?

Do they?

Why do you have trust issues when it comes to women?

Maybe go to a woman psychologist and discuss this. Seriously.

You say she is cute. Naked pictures? Videos? Ok. You got a phone number. Give it a couple calls and see what happens. If she is always busy, move on. How much air time do you waste with a couple of calls?

Hit it, I would.

I sort of miss the iwrock posts that were "Here's what I did, let me tell you about it . . "

oh wait, I don't think there were any . . .

x 2.

I've heard and read many times that this is a sure way to piss a woman off. If she wants you to make a try for home base, better make that try.

As you said he is not her gynocoligist . He is just a wannabe.

Actually tell her you can accept rejection easily. Had to all your life. Even when I was born my mother said she did not even want to take me home.

There is a semi subliminal message in this of course that she will pick up easily. Get the conversation flowng well. Then ask her if she wants to go out for a bite to eat sometime after work. That leaves some flexability in the situation. My favorite ploy was that I needed a hand at some thing or another. If you do not seem to be off the wall they are usualy interested in activities. Most women want to help and are curious but you have to be creative. To ask for help is an approach they seldom if ever experience.

Just do not do outrageous things like I did long ago. Things like. I need a new girlfriend. The last one insisted one morning on sex just before breakfast. Afterwards I asked her why she was so frisky that early in the morning. She told me the egg timer was broken.

Self depreciation by the male usually brings good responses as women usually expect a more macho type of approach. I was always fortunate enough to get them laughing with absurd one liners.

I can guarantee from experience years ago waitresses and bar ladies are accessable unless they are pre engaged with another usually.

Well the sands of time have run pretty well through my hourglass at my age . I enjoyed Tom's remark of a new love interest being use the other hand. If nothing else it's cheaper I suppose. I am so old now some lady is going to ask me when I last had sex. I will simply ask her what time is it now.

Yep, don't piss in the glass you drink from.

Well, I think asking someone out is far from pissing in her glass. She has given her number. I'd go for it if I found her attractive. You need to learn that a refusal is just a temporary setback in the game of love, not a death sentence. If you are afraid to fail you will never succeed at anything worth achieving.

I agree somewhat but each situation depends on many intangiables. I would have never dated a woman where I worked for example. But a restaurant or a bar is not a place you absolutely have to frequent if you do not want to at some point.

Tom is right again You will not always score but you have to play the game. Many times I fall short on a project or something and have to reflect that at least I got most the way. Having doubts about starting you would never know how something turned out.

One qualifier here is even some of us think in terms of all women being about the same in some ways. There are regional differences and a major difference not in the mechanical sense of course. Still in other ways between canadian and american women.

I call it a cultural difference. It was almost like American women trying to hustle me at times in my travels long ago. They just seemed more friendly or open and that could have been all it was.. My wife asked me years ago if I was aware women where hitting on me.
