This was my second night out back in Zagreb. I made a post about the first night a week ago, so feel free to have a look.

So I went out once more with the same friend, but this time we were in a different club. We got there at around 0:30, the place was a bit full. Had plenty of girls there, mainly they were in groups by themselves. Good looking too. So we went to the bar, ordered ourselves drinks, and I started to look around.

While ordering drinks, a girl that was near me, probably by accident, pushed me with her back. I turned around, looked at her, and played with her hair. She turned her back to me and gave me no signals. I took the drinks, and pushed slightly on the side. While we were drinking there, two girls were on our left, and I chatted up the one, asking her about her drink and all. I remembered the advice this time, talk loudly, and let her lean towards you. And she did, she was the one leaning to hear me what I'm talking about. I made fun of her mojito, saying that it's basically ice and grass. She smiled to that, and nothing more. Turned her whole back to me, so noticed nothing will come out of it. I also noticed her friend was wearing a wedding ring, so they were probably just there to get some validation from other guys lol.

While drinking and talking with my friend, another girl came to order drinks near me, I turned towards her. She smiled and told me sorry for bumping into me. I smiled back and told her no problem. I started to talk with her, about her clothes. The dress had pictures of flowers. So I teased her is that a new trend or what. She smiled and said that it probably is. She introduced herself to me, and I introduced back. I asked her where she's from, considering she had a different accent, not from my region. She told me something, and I didn't hear her. She told me again, and again I didn't fucking hear her. She took the cigarettes from the counter, and just left, basically in the middle of the conversation. So a girl introduced herself to me, was talking with me, and then just left like nothing ever happened. Fucking weird.

I approached another group of girls, aiming at one as she was wearing pants that resembled prisoners stripes. I asked her is that a prison fashion or what. She said that it most likely is, with not an amused face. I just left and went back to my friend. After a while, it was around 1:30 by then. My friend saw another friend of his, so we started to talk with them. Soon, I noticed two girls by themselves in the middle, they were drinking whiskey from an ice bucket. They were quite lovely, dancing and having fun. My friend told me they must be quite drunk already and all. The blonde was, I'd say a 7/10, and her friend with black hair, a 5/10. Considering the setting and all, they are at that rating, although they might be a point lower even.

OK so, here's where the main part of the story. To keep things simpler, we'll refer to me as M, my friend as IV, the blonde as V, and her friend as B. I told my friend about them, let's approach them. I told him I'll take the blonde, and he the other one. He said he fancies the blonde more, that I should take the other one. This was a problem, as that caused "issues" later on. I approached the girls, and quite witty from me, I told the blonde considering she's the only blonde there, I had to approach her. She laughed at that, and said that she's flattered. I told her that my friend likes her friend, as he was looking at her for a while now (bullshit, but whatever). They told me he's the man, he should approach her. I went back to my friend, and told him about it, how we should go back to them. So we did, he introduced herself to them, and afterwards I did too. I started to talk with B, and asked her does she fancy my friend. She said he's OK. I told IV about that, and he was there staying like a rock. I moved him towards B, and I moved towards V. I started to talk with V, and asked her is she natural blonde. She said she is, to which I said I really like blondes. I started to play with her hair, and kept touching her body. She asked me where my drinks was, and I told her I didn't have one. So she went to the bar for a glass, and poured me the whiskey from the bucket. I was quite surprised by that, and thought things were going to go smooth after that. She asked me do I smoke, and I told her no. As she didn't have her own cigarettes. I was expecting that she would go outside and smoke, so that I can talk with her there in peace. I forgot that in some clubs in our country, you can smoke inside, and she did that. I kept dancing with her, and teasing her how my friend is quite shy, she should tell B about that. She told me that B is like that too. I kept touching her and dancing, but throughout the whole night, she didn't touch me back. I was only touching her upper to mid back, and her arms. And while talking, we were basically touching with our cheeks. Also when I asked her how old are they, she told me 20. I told her we're 24, to which she replied age is just a number. So I thought, OK, things are going fine, this should be easy. I was telling IV about that he should take one for the team, and go for B, so I can take the blonde V. He told me he fancies the blonde more, and yet again that was causing issues.

He went and bought drinks for them three, I told him I'm fine and don't need drinks. Upon handing them their drinks, V asked me where's my glass, and told me that I should pour myself some more of whiskey. And now, he basically started to cockblock me, instead of going towards B, he was talking random shit to V (which resulted in nothing in the end, and one person was only getting more attention). I told him about that, and him, being an idiot, didn't listen to me. I started to talk with B again, teasing her about my friend and all. She wasn't budging. I noticed V went to the toilets, so I tried to play smart. I took her and my drink, and waited for her a bit away from IV and B. When V was coming back, I gave her her drink, and told her we should go here on the side, and have a chat for 5 minutes, so that our friends can be alone for a while. She didn't want that, and told me nothing will come from that, as she knows her for 8 years. She continued going forward, and told me to come with her too. So we came back, continued to dance and drink, and I told my friend IV that we should go to another club, 5 minutes by walk. He agreed on that. We told the girls we'll be going there, and if they want, they can come with us. So I didn't ASK them, I TOLD them (another advice given to me from before). She said sure, it's fine with them. And I was like, OK, things are going well, they're going by our pace. During the time in the first club, they were talking a bit between each other, presumably about us. So I really thought we'll at least make out with them. While going there, we went a bit ahead, and they even told us we should wait a bit for them to catch up.

So we got inside, and I asked them what will they drink. They told me, and I went for the drinks. They didn't have that, so I went back, and told them about it. They told me I can order whatever I want. So I got for the two girls Jaegermeister+coke, and for ourselves two Heineken's. V told me she really likes that drink, and I said with a cheeky smile, see how I made the correct choice. I started to dance again, and danced with her. Kept touching her again and all. I took a picture of us together too. Soon after that, they told me they're going to the toilet. I know by this, this was the turning point, either for good or bad. And I told my friend that, if they don't come back here, that's it. They actually came back to us, and V told me they'll be going home with a taxi. I've tried to persuade her, that we can drop her off with the car, it's no problem for us. She told me it's fine. I told her at least this way they'll save up on the fare, to which she said they have money, it's not a problem for them. After that, they have left. I told my friend, wtf went wrong. They've been with us for 2 hours literally, and nothing came out of it.

After that, I approached three more set of girls, the first two I approached with telling them my friend likes one of them, no luck. And the last pair before I left, I intentionally went to be rude, approached them, put my arms around both of them, and asked them are they training, because they have good asses. One of them pushed me away, and that was it.

So we left then, and guess fucking what. We saw the two girls that were with us the whole night! They were leaving another club. They noticed us, hurried up ahead, and tried to hide from us. Wow... We discussed later on, wtf was the deal with two of them. We came to a conclusion that there's no point in talking with someone outside for 2 fucking hours. Next time if I'm talking with someone for 30 minutes, I'll just grab their fucking ass. If I get slapped, fine. If I don't get slapped, even better. Will save me time, money, and effort.

I've discussed this with another Irish friend of mine, and he told me basically because of my friend, things went bad. As he was hitting on the same girl as I was, and because of that, the other girl felt excluded. They were most likely talking about that between each other in toilet, and that's why they immediately left afterwards, not even finishing up their drinks.

Lessons learned: Don't go with a gloomy friend, don't let him hit on the same girl as you are going. Even if she isn't giving signals, but is fine with your touching, just fucking escalate early, grab their ass, and not talk with someone for two hours.
