The Wrong Approach

Girl walks into a bar with her girlfriends.
Girl may or may not be into other girls.
Girl is obviously wearing a wedding ring.
Girl walks up to the bar to order a drink.

….

A couple is sitting to her left.
One of her girlfriends to her right.
Girl realizes that she is being stared at and talked about. By the couple.
Girl also realizes that the couple is new to the bring-a-girl-home scene.
The lady in the couple situation smiles at girl.
Girl averts eyes, and thinks “What the fuck is this broad staring at?”
And the bitch keeps staring. And talking.

….

Girl over hears the lady say “She is exactly who I would want to take home.”
Girl thinks, “Wait, what?”
Girl realizes that she is staring. Again.
What she doesn’t realize is that Girl is a pro multi-tasking ignorer.
Girl can appear to not notice or be paying attention with extreme expertise.
So, as Girl pretends to not notice her staring, and talking, the lady continues to talk shit.
“Who is she to ignore me smiling?”
“Am I completely invisible?”
“I don’t know how she couldn’t possibly see me smiling. Does she not have the ability to return my gesture?”

Girl gets her drink, glances down at the purse sitting on the bar stool  next to the lady and says to her “That is a really cute purse.” and smiles at her.

Translation: I heard you, bitch. Don’t expect that simply because you put it out there that it will get returned to you. Furthermore, I heard you. It is unattractive to assume that everyone you are attracted to will reciprocate. Self-centered behavior is unattractive. Especially when it comes to the laws of attraction.


Confidence is sexy. I appreciate and possess an air of confidence in everything I do. But there is a fine line betweem confident and full of yourself.

I haven’t dated for many years, however certian aspects never die out. Leave your cheesy pick-up lines at the door. Leave the option of rejection open. Do not assume that every bitch in the place is watching you.

Especially in a bisexual encounter. Or a possible bisexual encounter.

If you are bisexual you know that the area is so grey when it comes to finding a person to explore and experience with, that it is so easy to misread signs and give off signals that could quite possibly offend someone.

I am no prude. However I do not like to be looked at as a piece of meat. By anyone. Male or Female. My sexuality is what it is, but there are standards in place. And expections. And a level of respect within myself that is extremely important to me.

Yep. I am Girl. And the above scenario happened to me this weekend.

I was less than amused. And not flattered. I am not new to being bisexual, and I will not be talked about as if I was on display at a ‘find your bisexual hook-up’ store.

Biiiiiiiiiiiiiitch.

Oh. Pee Ess. You were not nearly cute enough to act that way.

Have you ever been offended by the approach?
What would you have done if you were me?

    not even my piece of meat?

    LivingWicked Reply:

    Well that is different. I already know you and that you think of me as a big ol’ pile of meat.

    Miss Tricky Reply:

    delicious awesome amazing meat….

    I am purring.

    Meh, I probably would’ve just walked away. But no one ever hits on me, so I don’t have to to worry. If I want it, I go for it mydamnself. I was talking to some guy at a bar this weekend and when I left, I slipped him my number. Of course then I went to the next bar and fucking Peter was there. Grrr.

    The guy called though – it was cute. He was all “I know I should’ve waited 3 days or something, but I really didn’t want to.”

    I think I just got really off-topic…must have coffee.

    Heather G Reply:

    Aww. Tori! That guy calling you back was one of the sweetest most genuine things he could have done.

    LivingWicked Reply:

    I totally agree.

    pecosa Reply:

    Hahaha, he gets extra brownie points for breaking the rules.

    pecosa’s last blog post..OMFG! It’s a weekend update!!!

    LivingWicked Reply:

    hahahahah yeah he does. Tori, you need to keep him around long enough to properly thank him with a good old fashioned thank you BJ.

    Tori Reply:

    That’s what I told him. I said that the “rules” are stupid. And he’s cute in a Paul Rudd way, which is excellent since I would do dirty things to Paul Rudd.

    The only problem is Peter. I cannot make my hormones calm down around him. Fucker.

    LivingWicked Reply:

    Oh Paul Rudd is in my top 10. I <3 him and would sit on his face. The end.

    Heather G Reply:

    Um. He’s cuter than the characters he seems to portray

    ^^ Paul Rudd pic above. Not to be confused with pic I sent Courtni not of Paul Rudd yesterday

    LivingWicked Reply:

    HA HA HA! If it WAS Paul Rudd… I might like him even more.


  3. Heather G Says:

    Jesus. It’s not like you were at Hedo. Was it a bar that people typically pick up bisexual girls??

    And, I agree. I don’t have to goddamn smile simply because a person wants me to. But, then again I would have turned to the couple when I heard the “that’s the girl I would like to take home” and said, “sorry, I don’t think my husband would appreciate me fucking yours.”

    Not really, but I would have told her I wasn’t gay and pulled up my hand with my wedding band on it

    LivingWicked Reply:

    No. It wasnt. If we were at a swingers party, I would be more open to that. Simply because I am there for that. You know?

    HAH! Imagine the look on her face if I would have said that. I NEED TO THINK OF THESE THINGS ON THE FLY!


  4. pecosa Says:

    “You were not nearly cute enough to act that way.” hahahaha!

    For some reason, women get really offended when you don’t return they’re flirtacious gestures…it’s like every woman out there has to want them just based on the fact that they’re female. I dont’ get it.

    If she was talking loud enough to try to get me to hear what she was saying I probably would have just gave her a dismissing look, if not, then I probably would have complimented her purse.

    pecosa’s last blog post..OMFG! It’s a weekend update!!!

    LivingWicked Reply:

    Seriously. She wasnt.

    Yeah. That is why I did. It is the womans universal sign saying “Bitch I heard you.”


  5. Cassie Says:

    I can honestly say that I never have had this type of encounter….or if I had I was either too ignorant or too drunk to notice or care!

    LivingWicked Reply:

    HA HA HA HA!

    Why doesnt this surprise me?

    Cassie Reply:

    wait…..there was this one time I was at a lesbian bar with one of my best friends and a woman just grabbed my ass……she got punched in the nose and I got to be ‘drunk in Pub-lick’

    LivingWicked Reply:

    !

    she grabbed your ass!?!?!? YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

    I am totally doing that.

    Cassie Reply:

    ummmm, NO!!

    LivingWicked Reply:

    Ok.

    Cassie Reply:

    wow…didn’t expect that to actually work!!! hahahahahahahahahahaha

    Tori Reply:

    Trust me, it didn’t. She’ll still do it.

    Cassie Reply:

    I have no doubts about that fact!! hahahahahahaha

    LivingWicked Reply:

    I do what I want.

    Cassie Reply:

    THAT’S FINE….as long as you are prepared for the/any repercussions of your actions!

    LivingWicked Reply:

    I dare you to punch me in the nose. That is all I am saying.

    Cassie Reply:

    you grab my ass, I just might!

    LivingWicked Reply:

    We shall see.

    Cassie Reply:

    I guess so!

    LivingWicked Reply:

    fine.


  6. Becca Says:

    Wow, you always have the oddest shit happen to you. You wearing a sign or something? LOL

    I dunno what I would have done. Depending on my mood I might have gave my “bitch, please” look at the chick upon overhearing her.

    LivingWicked Reply:

    You know, I really think that I was put on this earth to deal with this kind of shit.

    I often find myself wondering if people think I make it up.

    Becca Reply:

    I don’t think you could make this shit up. You’re good, but damn… It’s like you’re a freaking jack-ass magnet. Sent to earth to rid the world of jack-asses. One donkey-punch at a time. Or ya know, maybe not.

    *reels it back in*

    I tend to take things a bit too far… LOL

    LivingWicked Reply:

    No. That is not too far at all. It is the truth. Tarable and I always are appalled when we go out. It is like I have a flashing sign that says “JACKASS COME FUCK WITH ME”


  7. Meghan Says:

    I’ve never really had that type of encounter – but, I probably would have said – “I’ll take your man and your purse and you can watch…lmao”

    Nobody ever hits on me…lol

    LivingWicked Reply:

    What would you do with the purse? Would it be an accessory to the sexcapade?

    Meghan Reply:

    Nope….if it was cute I would just take it…lol

    Altough, I don’t know…I’m sure I could figure out someway to throw it in there…haha

    LivingWicked Reply:

    HA HA HA!

    I am sure there are ways to incorporate it. Like if you were on a ‘job interview’ you could show up with only that on.

    Or something.

    Meghan Reply:

    hrm…i might have to use that this weekend…lmao…thanks for the idea…haha

    LivingWicked Reply:

    There’s always room for P-O-R-N-O

    Wow, good things to know!

    I can only offer truth to the Blogosphere. :)

    “You were not nearly cute enough to act that way.”

    Honestly, that’s the most offensive part of all of it. KNOW YOUR ROLE, BIATCH.

  10. Carol Says:

    I would have handled it just like you…in fact, I have had similar situations occur.

    I usually make some off handed comment that is brutally honest and somehow funny. I don’t want to make anyone as uncomfortable as they have made me…it’s much more my style to walk away with a smile and a laugh.

    LivingWicked Reply:

    I was channeling my inner carol.


  11. April Says:

    I read this post early this morning as always but I swear to fuck couldn’t figure out how to respond because that kind of shit never happens to me. You just seem to be a magnet…wait I think someone said that already.

    I just have no idea how I’d deal with that but I really love how you did.

    LivingWicked Reply:

    Thanks babe.


  12. Dre Says:

    I just *LOVE*-insert sarcastic tone here- when men think that, two women are in a relationship just for their viewing pleasure. Really, I do. Gimme some more gross pig-men… So I can stab them in the junk with a spork =|IF I was you as “Girl” I woulda been like “Bitch please, neither you nor your husband could handle all this! I’d have ya both bent over takin’ it in the ass screaming, “YES DRE, MORE!” Oh good lord ignore me I’m sick.. I think it’s affected my brain. <3
