[QUOTE="howandwhy99, post: 2376983, member: 3192"] This one I've never told anyone else as it is very embarrassing. Generally I'd rather not come off as stupid to anyone I know in real life, but online is a little different. :confused: =-=- In college I took a semester in DC at a university as an elective from my home school. Near the end, one of the other semester seminar groups returned from a country in Africa or the Caribbean, I forget which. From it I met a really attractive girl from Hawaii. Unfortunately only a few days were left before school ended, so we were only starting to get acquainted. On the last evening in DC a big group of my friends and a group of hers all went out to party in either Adams Morgan or Georgetown (somewhere with plenty of clubs). She must have been playing hard to get, but I played it cool and talked to her friend who was also pretty attactive. I was only trying to be nice, but her friend seemed very interested in what I was saying. The rest of my friends wanted to go, (as it was a spanish dance club & only the Hawaiian girl was dancing with the regulars). So I was pulled out of that conversation and all of us met on the sidewalk outside as we decided on where to go next. While waiting another friend of mine casually started talking to me. It was innocent enough, but she happened to be female and this had a definite effect. The Hawaiian girl and her roommate, the other I was talking to, flagged down a taxi to go home. They were pretty mad without explaining why, so I offered to travel with them. They were still angry but relented for some reason (now I know), so I hopped in. Of course... all our friends came along too as no one else could think of a place to go so late. A second taxi was actually needed in the end. Both were packed full. On the way back the group decided to stop and get some coffee and ice cream (DC has a great nightlife BTW) and then walk back home (about a mile). Things sort of worked themselves out on the walk home and the original reason for leaving was forgotten (meaning it was never brought up). All in all it was a pretty fun night. Sort of tame all around for a semester-ending bash, but it was two groups of people who were meeting for the first time. When we got back to campus I split off from all the others to enter my dorm. Oddly everyone else lived in the big res. hall. Only the Hawaiian girl stopped me. She put her arms around me to kiss me good night. I was embarrassed as the whole group was watching. And she whispers in my ear, "Why don't you have breakfast with me and my roommate?" Well of course, it was very late and I was tired, so I said no I just couldn't be up by breakfast time. (8-9:30) And I went back to my room to fall asleep. =-=-=- Long story short, I was kicking myself for the next week. (didn't see either again) [/QUOTE]
