What not to do...

I'm going to start a new series of blogs called "What Not To Do..." Today we will be talking about what not to do at the bar. Last Thursday I had the pleasure of going out with one of my best friends Cady to Rockwood's to see an amazing band by the name of Simpleton and City Folk. So, the evening was going well until creepy Chris decided to come and "chat" us up. I wish that Chris would see this post to find out what not to do next time. First off, Chris didn't buy us any drinks. I feel that a guy in a bar should never try to approach a lady without offering a drink. At the bar this is literally the easiest way to break the ice ever! I honestly feel this is partly why bars were created! For guys to have easy access to a lot of alcohol to offer to women they think are attractive. I can understand not wanting to spend your money on a stranger and then not have it led anywhere, but these are the risks you have to take. Chris' second error of the evening was answering a phone call from his...wait for it, his wife! All of the sudden the non-offering of drinks made sense. But what didn't make sense was why he was at this bar at 1:30 in the morning talking to a table full of girls! We tried to explain this to him, but he just claimed his wife should trust him. Which I agree the trust should be there, when you are not making poor decisions! And no matter how you look at this situation, this my friend is a poor decision. Chris' last error was that he was awkward. Which is a statement I have no business in saying about another person, so this gives you an idea of how bad it was. You not only need to be brave to approach a table-ful of strangers, you also need to be charismatic. Chris had plenty of bravery, but absolutely no charisma. We literally had to initiate every conversation. It was like he forgot who approached who. And to top it all off he was paranoid! He backed up every statement he said with a 'I'm not lying to you'. Listen here Chris, I never accused you of lying! Why would I?! I don't know you! So there you have it ladies and gentlemen what not do do at the bar. love, ktv
