Define Tacky:
A guy coming to an event with a woman he is dating who proceeds to hit on my friend in a cloakroom only to blow her off when his date come into said cloakroom. Now there are several ways he could have handled this. If it were a situation where he was paired up with this woman for the evening, as a set-up, like a blind date of sorts, then it is perfectly alright that he would be hitting on my friend. He is under no real obligation to his date as far as anything beyond their evening together that night so if he is chatting up my friend and giving her his card, that is okay. But he should have the decency for all parties concerned to introduce the two women to each other, at least to give them names and exchange Hellos in the cloakroom rather than to cut my friend dead and guiltily turn to his date and walk her hastily out of the room. Now it turns out it wasn't a situation of a set-up blind date sort of thing and that actually he had been dating this woman for awhile, but was simply not that into her and figured this was a great opportunity to find someone better, even though his date was there at the event. Thus he is not gentleman enough to treat either his date or my friend nicely enough to even introduce either one of them to one another or to excuse himself from his conversation with my friend and exit gracefully. Totally lame, totally awful, totally TACKY!
Of course, she totally threw his card away. . .
