This is wonderful. Just. So wonderful.

Also, what an asshole for calling screwdrivers adolescent.

And based on what you've told me, your friend F is a lot like Barney Stinson pre-robin-ing, and I don't know if that's a good thing.

In response to this: "You should still tell him you’re sitting. Be a diva. What do you care?" you could have said, "BITCH I'M A SAUCY DIVA."

(I'm not a weird internet friend, am I? they're not talking about me being a weird internet friend, right? RIGHT>?!"

Basically what I'm saying is YAY FOR YOU followed by several snappy comebacks that I can only come up with on the internet and not even close in real life.

Despite my username, I don't really think of myself as being all that diva-like, really.

F is exactly Barney Stinson. No question; we've discussed it (he also loves the show).

You aren't THAT weird.

While I think I probably need a friend like F, their prodding (while I assume comes from a good place) would give me hives.

If I didn't have people that pushed me to try new things, I'm not sure I would. I like that in people, that they're willing to push me out of my comfort zone.

Which isn't to say it was fun at the time.

Nothing to lose? What about your money, on buying a non-cute guy a drink.

(I'm so fun, right?)

No, that's fair. And god knows I personally don't think someone buying me a drink entitles them to my time, and have been known not to talk to people who have bought me drinks.

But, you know, it's a gamble, I suppose. And like gambling, the money is not necessarily going to net you anything, but the thrill is in trying.

Personally I prefer your strategy of just wandering up to people and starting random conversations ... and then if there's a romantic spark or chemistry or something, then you can see where that goes. Why the pressure to flirt before you even know if you like someone? But I suppose that would be less effective as a hookup strategy. And ... oops, I think I here Barney Stinson laughing at me somewhere.

Trying new things is always awesome, though.

I would find that entire process absolutely terrifying, so I totally admire your courage for having given it a shot.

Thank you! It's all about trying, right? More or less.

I absolutely could never do that...I have no game. When I want to flirt I end up yelling at a guy like a 2nd grader. Good for you!

I hope to see this at some point. Because AWESOME. I bet it works, too.

It works sometimes, but more often they think I hated them. I'm shy around boys so they tend to think I'm indifferent cause I don't talk or I hate them because I argue (and cause I'm competitive when I argue I forget about wanting to flirt and just want to win...)

But every once in a while a guy figure it out and we have great banter etc.
