On thursday i performed at an open mic night at one of the local rock bars in town and met a girl (8/10ish, hollywood girl mentality) through a friend, we hit off pretty well, exchanged numbers, and agreed to meet up for coffee earlier today.

so this morning comes, and she messages me saying that she's "smoking a biff", and will be on the next bus in 20 minutes. fair enough, i don't really do drugs anymore but i'm not really judgmental on people that do it unless they're on the amy winehouse level.

i start walking into town and get another message from her:

"i'm almost here, bringing a friend along, he's helping me carry stuff back to mine aha :D"

this was the first coffee date in a while that i had actually been looking forward to, so i was slightly annoyed but i saw this one as a big ol' shit test.

i meet up with them and my gaydar goes off the charts. i've had to deal with gay bff's before and i would take a chode orbiter any day of the week. as soon as i can, i take out my phone and start messaging a girl that i met at a party a couple of days ago asking what she's doing later on. meanwhile, coffee date and gay companion are asking me if i want a smoothie, i decline but walk along with them anyway, just to see how this plays out.

she barely talks to her gay friend, the attention is on me, and it's shit test after shit test.

her: "so what did you do last night" me: "went to a few clubs, came home, played league, what about you" her: "oh i just stayed in haha, it was literally the first friday night in months that i haven't been out" me: "thats cool"

the conversation goes like this for a while, she tells me that she pulled recently? "ok, cool".

at some point the girl i've been messaging decides to drop me a call, i take a step back from my "date" and pick up the phone.

we're chatting away while my date is clearly listening in on the conversation. i tell this girl that i've got a job at a local high end bar starting in the week and have to bring some new ideas for cocktails to the table (wasn't lying, pure buzz for that btw), and i asked her if she was free. the answer was yes, so i invited her to come out for a few drinks at a pub in about an hour and then head back to mine so she can judge me on my barmanship. she says yes.

Back to the date. she was quiet for a few minutes and then asked about my phonecall. i told her that i was meeting someone for work related stuff (short blunt answers work a treat). she keeps pressuring me into telling her when my phone starts vibrating and it's the girl i just spoke to, telling me that she was already in town and can meet with me now if i wanted to.

i tell my date and her friend that i was leaving, she seemed disheartened but i couldn't care less at this point, she was attractive but boring as fuck.

i head to the pub where i arranged to meet the other girl, she was there before me and had already bought drinks, we chat for a bit and head to my place, i whip up some absinthe cocktails, escalation ensues, we have sex, and she leaves due to the fact that she has work at 6.

after she left i spoke to my date from earlier today, might be seeing her in the week but personally i think the other girl is a far better plate.

TL;DR - coffee date brings gay best friend along, i hate dealing with gay friends unless they're actually trying to help her get laid. Contact another girl i met, meet her for drinks because my date had the tenacity to bring someone else along, in the end i have a better experience with the other girl. GG WP
