A Narrow Escape

This wasn’t my date, but I was in the vehicle when it happened.

I was going to an outdoor dance party (like a rave). I was going with a guy who I’d met once before, and talked with a it online. This guy, Pew, was in his mid-30s, a DJ, and quite a crazy party guy. He’s quite a player, too; right off the bat he was telling me stories of his various sexual conquests. We headed off on the 1.5 hour drive to the party in his van, with one other guy, A. Pew told us that there was a girl he’d been talking to on an online dating site, who he was going to call and meet while we were out there.

So when we arrived at the town, A and I went and had a beer at a nearby pub, while P went to the shop where the girl works (looking pretty scruffy – barefooted, I might add). He came back and tells us that she was coming to this party with us, we just needed to go back to her family’s house so she could get a change of clothes. He also mentioned that he’d felt her ass a couple of times already.

This girl turned out to be quite attractive and friendly; she jumped in the front seat, while A and I sat in the back.

So on the drive to the girl’s house, Pew mentioned, “just so you know, this is the kind of party where people take lots of drugs and get really wasted” and “I hope your family doesn’t mind us taking advantage of you,” while A sparked up a cone in the back. We got to the girl’s house, which was quite a nice house on the top of a hill. She mentioned that they are selling the house, and Pew made jokes: ‘OH yeah, how much do you want for it, I’ve got $50, $50 enough? $100?’

It turns out her sister was home, which she wasn’t really expecting. We waited in the van while she went inside to get changed, and get some spare clothes for the party. After about ten minutes, P started musing whether she was actually calling the cops. Eventually she came out wearing a dumpy t-shirt and told us ‘sorry, I actually have to have dinner with family friends’ – which sounded a bit like BS, as she’d told Pew that her parents were away for the weekend. Then she escaped into her house.

Meh.

You should have gone with the girl, OP.

Dafuq did I just read??

Smart girl, at least she got a free ride home

AudaxJune 26th, 2012 at 7:55 am

I’m getting old. Does “sparking up a cone” mean lighting a joint?

Sisters unite!

Dafuq did I just read…?

I think the girl who ditched Harold, Kumar, and OP for the “dinner with family and friends” was probably the smartest one of the group, especially after that creepy “take advantage of you” BS. Bravo to her!

So, wait, is the OP a guy or a girl? Is there an actual date somewhere in this story?

I sincerely hope that the point of the story isn’t that the girl is a lousy date for making up a bs excuse to not go.

Who are these crazy people?

Question – who decides to ride 1.5 hours in a van with two people they’ve spoken to briefly on the internet, to go to a rave?

Why did Pew become P?

Does A have any role in this story?

Why were we told this story?

I haven’t had so many questions since I saw Prometheus.

Sooo, the girl who had to have dinner with family friends – it was her worst date, right?

Drinky the Drunk GirlJune 26th, 2012 at 9:05 am

Wait, you were on the date with Pew I thought? This is like a story that has been in the blender.

Editorial FAIL

I didn’t think this story was particularly hard to follow. OP is hanging out with two guys on a way to a party and witnesses one of the guy’s date ditch the group, possibly freaked out by their behavior…

Pew sounds a little creepy, but the party seems like fun.

DeeJune 26th, 2012 at 10:26 am

Waaah, I don’t get it.

MaryJune 26th, 2012 at 11:01 am

Laaaameee story.

AvidReaderJune 26th, 2012 at 11:05 am

This isn’t a VWD, this is a shining example of that girls common sense.

Baron von FancypantsJune 26th, 2012 at 11:42 am

She sounds pretty smart (and brave).
She got 3 creepy strangers to taxi her home.

StrangeJune 26th, 2012 at 12:28 pm

Welp there goes 2 minutes of my life I will never get back.

LadyQuackworthyJune 26th, 2012 at 1:22 pm

Now this is the story all about how
my life got flipped turned upsidedown
only nothing really happened
and then it was over.

laurenJune 26th, 2012 at 1:46 pm

The idea is that it’s the girl’s VWD not the OP’s…

amyJune 26th, 2012 at 3:10 pm

Not a date.

JeffJune 26th, 2012 at 8:38 pm

Wow, talk about a lot of buildup leading to….nothing. I vote fail.

C D PlayneJune 26th, 2012 at 11:55 pm

Where’s Billy???

europeanJune 27th, 2012 at 4:07 am

what the f***? such a waste of time……….

AwesomeIDJune 27th, 2012 at 4:26 am

What a stupid story. I’m glad the girl ditched you losers.

CCJune 27th, 2012 at 1:33 pm

I want my money back…

TillieJune 27th, 2012 at 2:27 pm
