Rough date

1h 56m ago by lemmy.world/u/ickplant in lemmyshitpost

Having a drink to calm the nerves is one thing, but spending several minutes taking shots of vodka before a date sounds like straight-up alcoholic behavior. Unless OP is greatly exaggerating, either she has a massive tolerance, or she would end up a drunken mess in front of her date, which would probably be much worse than a case of the nerves.

If I knew my date hand just taken five shots in short order the first thing I'd probably ask them is, "Can I call you a cab?"

To be fair they said “5 minutes” but did not give a number of shots.

“s” implies at least 2, leaving some wiggle room that they where not accustomed to strong liquor and had trouble getting It down. 2 of them because they underestimate the effect of just one.

Sort of reminds me of the time my friend fixed me up with a friend of his partner.

OK its not the same but we met up at a nice chinese restaurant in amsterdam and I immediately found my date very hot. We had chemistry right away! When the server came to take the drink order my date lean in close and whisper to my ear "only get a mixer" as she pressed two small bottles into my hand and then winked at me.

Turned out she is a flight attendant for klm and her purse was full of them!

This is why we should normalize committing societal faux pas and crimes on dates! Sounds like it was an incredibly fun time

Yeah it was a wild for certain!

I, too, always keep an open bottle of vodka in my car, accessible from the driver's seat. It's just common sense.

Of course! You dont want to be fumbling around god knows where for that shit! Its unsafe.

Exactly, that's why I keep it right next to my loaded pistol and bag of oxy

You can put it in a water bladder and strap it to the sun visor. Now you have a handy straw and then it's as simple as taking a sip whenever you feel your vision go unblurry

Ok but if you're nervous, presumably there's an expectation that it might not go well...and then you'll want to leave...in your car...while all that vodka seeps into your brain.

Someone who openly drinks while they're sitting in the driver's seat can get a DUI from that alone. They aren't caring about driving drunk, I'd wager.

Whats a bumble date?

Dating site for bees.

There's a lot of buzz about it!

Dating app where women make the first move

It’s not even that anymore. They took away the one thing that made it unique.

Thats because one company owns okcupid, tinder, bumble, and plentyofish.

They probably own grindr too. 20 years ago these services all acted very differently. Today they're basically the same app 4 times.

Women can still pay for the privilege

My date would be over if i saw that they are an alcoholic who drink and drive

Reminds me of a first date where I arrived at the bar to find her with her friend, polishing off their second pitcher of margarita. They showed up an hour early to get absolutely smashed. The server came over and gave me a look that screamed, "Run away and don't look back." It was a fun date, but a very short relationship.

She sounds fun!

He totally would not have noticed that she was completely smashed.
