Yeah....I stood somebody up....
ok, i was at this football game and i met this chick from orientation. she wasnt exactly my type and wasnt exactly good looking, but i was nice and talked to her and hung out for a while during orientation.
so, she sees me during the game and asks me to come and sit by her. i do it. we talked for a lil, but didnt get too far into conversation. she tried to make some subtle advances, but i didnt go for any of 'em. then, the game is over and tags along with me (literally) till the gate. she kept her umberalla in storage (since they're not allowed) and she told me to wait while she went and retrieved it. ok, i waited for about 2 mts, then went lookin for her (not too much effort) and then scrambled. i dont know what she had planned and i didnt wanna be part of it. was this too rude of me or what?

no. you shouldn't feel obligated to do anything and if you went along with it, you're just playing her. at least she knows that you're clearly not interested.

eh... I'm 50/50 on that one... on one hand, you could've said "nah, I ogt other things to do, bye" and been politer about it. but on the other, if she was that clingy, that may have been the only way to get rid of her. but really... you didn't have to sit w/ her on the first place, so it's kinda your fault in the first place. in general, an honest "no thanks i have other thigns to do" is preferable.

There's no shame in getting a blowjob from an ugly girl.
Besides, if you become more familiar with them, they start to actually look better. Like, I see some girls in class, and I think "Geez, fucking dog." Then I keep looking, and by the end of class I'm thinking, "but she's athletic and I wouldn't mind finding out how she looks when I slip her the whitesnake."

I think I'd have done the same thing. I mean, you play nice for a while, but realise that it's not really your game. Once I was talking to a girl, and she got really annoying, and I just said "fuck this" and left her... served her right, she was really getting on my nerves. |

Sounds to me like you led her on.
All the stuff you were thinking was non-verbal. From her perspective it probably looked like you were interested. Bolting when she went to get her stuff was hurtful. Still, you had the guts to post the episode. I'd be curious to know how she reacts the next time you run into her. |

You'll probably have a better idea of how she feels about it sooner than you think. Colleges are never as big as they appear and I guarandamntee you'll run into her again.
You might want to keep a reason for your actions close by.

I'd have politely said something, rather than standing her up - not only is it the nice thing to do, but as a previous poster said, you'll probably meet her again and it's always easier to have a smooth ride through life when you don't make enemies
That said, you did have a quick look for her, so you didn't just take the opportunity to scarper - full credit to you for that. |

It would have been better,
just to excuse yourself. Think if the shoe had been on the other foot, how would you had felt? Golden Rule, guy. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" And next time when you need to excuse yourself, be polite but firm. |
