View Full Version : You be the judge, is this strange?

Okay, is this nuts?

My roommate has this female friend (they are not dating, but they spend time together, she has issues about thier relationship- which is another looong story, worthy of another post) that he goes out and does things with.
Tuesday he calls her and invites her to see a play tonight; for those interested, the play is "Burn This" by Lanford Wilson, a good play.
She says yes, but here's what's wierd...
She never asked him what play they would be seeing.

Thinking it is strange of her not to ask, he does his best to bring up their "theater date" in subsequent phone conversations (like where they'll meet, what theater the play is at, etc.) but she never asks what play they are seeing.

Of course, I find all of this hilarious, because I enjoy watching my friends suffer.
But when someone asks you to a movie, or to see a play or a live singer, isn't the title of the movie, play or name of the singer one of the first things you ask?

I just don't get women.

I know I'd ask. I'm the type that can't stand sitting through something I don't like, so I'd definetly ask.

Maybe some people don't care though. *shrugs*

Perhaps she has strong feelings for him (could that be the other looong story?), and she doesn't give a rat's ass if they're going to a kindergarten dance recital. She's just happy to be with him.
Just a theory.

Well I don't know if this is just me, but I really wouldn't care what kind of a movie it is. I'd just be happy to spend time with my friends. But since most of you are free, you might have different views on that, so i'll just shut up now.

If it was me, I would ask too. I don't want to be dragged to the nearest porn movie theater. That's what I would probably get if I didn't ask about the name of the movie. Then again this town doesn't show porno movies either. lol

It's safe to ask, because you never know what someone is going to drag you to.

Well when you lived at home (Or if you still do) you got to go out right? I don't. I stay home like all day everyday (Maily cause I have to run the motel) So it's like a miracle if I ever go out to a movie or even a coffee.

Maybe she just likes to be with him, thats my guess, and would be happy seeing Smurfs on Ice as long as she was with him.

***OFF TOPIC***

For those of you who are still in school do you ever notice how whenever a girl has to something they always ask one of there friends to come too. Like when they are in lunch if one goes to throw something away they'll ask one of their girlfriends to come to or when they talk to someone they ask another girl to come. The weird thing is the friend they ask to come never throws anything away or talks.....does this happen at your school?

Well folks, those of you who theorized that "if she likes being with him, what they do or see doesn't matter" are the winners.

It was driving my roomie crazy that she never asked what show they were seeing, and she told him that "what ever show you chose, It doesn't matter because I will be spending time with you."

AWWWW!

Still, keep in mind fellow Onliners that they are not dating! They are not boyfriend/girlfriend, despite this little revelation.

I think that's a crock.

They are dating! She's letting him take her to shows and to dinner. He goes and meets her when she's in the neighborhood.
My roomie better enjoy this while he can. If they ever officially start a "releationship" he will never be allowed to pick out stuff for them to do!
:lol:

It just doesn't get any wierder than this folks...
Welcome to TJL Land! All neurotics, all day long!

Girls always do stuff in pairs casue they have to hold each others purses if they have to fix their makeup, use the bathroom, throw away garbage. They can't just stick in in their back pockets like guys do with their wallets.

I've noticed that with my friends all the time. They'll always ask someone to come to the washroom with them if they have to go. I don't understand it at all and never have. I've always been the kind of person to just go to the washroom myself if I need to go. I never see the point of asking someone else to come to the washroom with me.Talk about insecurity. :rolleyes:

At my school, you dont really have a choice but to go to the bathroom by yourself, cuz you cant go more than one person at a time out a room, but yeah, I dont go into the public restrooms (not school ones) by myself. I just dont. Too many stories.

LOL! That reminds me of a quote from Golden Girls.

Dorothy: Rose, if I told you once, I told you a hundred times, you can't get pregnant by using the toilet at the mall!

I think that was the gist of it. :lol:
