A strange situation...

Post » Tue Jul 31, 2012 9:07 pm

So a girl that I'm not really into asked me to the graduation dinner at the end of this year. I said yes because I really didn't think any one else would ask me, so I just took the opportunity.

But then literally 10 minutes later the best looking girl in school asked me to go with her.

:mellow:

I could hardly believe it...

So do I stick with the first girl because she asked me first or drop her and go with the hot chick?

It's high school man. At least that's what I'm guessing by your age. Is the girl you are taking good looking at all? Is she nice? Do you think this hot girl is just playing a trick on you or did she seem actually interested?

Obviously the hot girl is playing a prank on you. Go with the uggo.

Tell the hot one that you have already agreed to go with someone else. But say that you really wish she (the hot one) had asked you a little earlier, because you would have really loved to go with her. Instead, ask her (the hot one) if she would want to go on a date or hang out the weekend after the grad thing.

This is opportunity. Don't waste it. Go with the first girl, but ask the hot one out on a date.

Wait, what did you tell the hot girl when she asked you out? Did you say yes? Or maybe? Or what?

Also, is the hot girl actually in your league? Is it reasonable she would ask you out? Or is it more likely that she's setting you up for a prank?

I like the whole assumption "If she's hot and out of your league" she must be trying to prank you

Makes me think that some BGSF members have had that happen to them :shifty:

Stick with the first girl OP.

Edit: Or if you don't you damn well better tell her the exact reason why you're not going with her. At least be honest with her.

I agree. "Hottest girl in school" was also pretty arbitrary, depending on who you asked, in my experience.

Well both of them are in the "Group" I occasionally hang around, so she (the hot one) knows I already said yes to the other one.

I don't think (or hope) she's joking because we are kinda (sort of) friends and she's only new to the school, so all the jerks haven't gotten to her yet. :dry:

The girl I agreed to go with certain isn't ugly, but when it's between her and the "Hottest girl in school", it's another matter entirely...

EDIT: My text is unusually small on my screen...

EDIT 2: Holy [censored] I've had 1,099 posts? Wow, I had know idea I was that active. Clarificatiion: I'm usually on my Ipod, so it doesn't display this sort of stuff.

Oh?

You mean you're thinking of ditching one girl for a better looking girl who the "jerks" haven't got to?

Yeah. :rolleyes:

If you're kinda sorta friends, then she's probably not joking or trying to set you up or anything.

I'd say stick with the first girl. I'd also caution against PeteAtoms advice. If the two girls are in the same group of friends and they start talking about how you are obviously more interested in the hotter girl, then that just makes you look like a jerk and makes the less-hot girl feel awful about herself. Have a good time with the first girl, maybe you'll hit it off. If not, pursue the hotter girl after, if you can.

Yea, I wasn't really aware of the full picture at that point. But I'm not sure how much weight a graduation dinner has, as far as romance is concerned. I mean, even with dances, my group of pals and gals never really got too hung up about who one went with because going with someone as just a friend was typical. Romantic interest may or may not even come into it. We would ride to the dance together, but everyone took turns dancing with everyone, even the boyfriends and girlfriends didn't dance with solely their partner. Everyone just had fun :)

But yeah, in my mind a dinner seems a lot less of a thing than going to a dance :smile: Or is there dancing also involved at dinner? I don't know, lol, we never had any as I recall.

It all depends on how the first girl imagines the dinner going, OP.

You've already said yes to the first girl? Ditching her for the second one would be a really [impolite] move on your part.

You should not break your promises, especially the ones made to attractive ladies.

Darn, why do I keep quoting myself instead of editing@! :(

I'm still not saying to ditch girl No. 1. But you should by all means pursue girl No. 2 after the dinner. But under no circumstance should you ever lead a girl on, not cool.

That's also a really good point. I don't know what kind of romantic connotations go with that setting or what either girl is expecting from asking you out, so you need to take those things into consideration. If you're going to end up sitting with both of them anyway, it might not even matter.

Do you think a 3 way would be on the cards? Some other people are doing it.

I'd go with the first girl since you have already committed, and dropping out now to go with someone else to the same event would kind of be a dike move.

Keep in mind a single date is hardly a serious commitment. If you are not really interested after getting to know her a bit more I would simply tell her where you stand. Then, give it like a week or so before you express interest in/act differently around/ask out the 2nd girl.

Don't let on that anything is up. Just be yourself and stick to the social behavior that is your norm. Then, after a reasonable amount of time has passed, maybe approach her and mention you were surprised she asked you to that graduation thing some weeks back, being you had been interested in her for some time but never really thought she felt the same.

Say you would have liked to go with her, but had already been asked, and valued the other person as a friend, so didn't want to be disrespectful, but that things hadn't worked for whatever reason. Then mention if she was still interested in going out/getting to know each other there is [some event] going on that might be fun.

Tell them both that you're going with someone else and don't go at all.
