Excuse me, I was sitting here...

Okay, totaly dumb question... But I am prepared for the firestorm if it is too dumb.

Anyway, many years ago I was at a club with a date. Later she refered to me as an ex-boyfriend, but I never thought of myself as such at the time. We never even kissed, just snuggled and watched movies a couple times... Anyway, in the middle of all of this, we were at a club one night and she sat down in my lap and snuggled in. Drinks, atmosphere and all, after literally about 30 seconds, I stood up and gave her my seat... Fill in the blank.

Remember, at this time we were just non-kissing snuggle friends, and pretty young (early 20s). Now, older and wiser, I wonder if our whole experience would have been different if I had not stood up... Lacking confidence and wanting desperately to be a good guy, I was horrified at the idea that she would feel uninvited attraction (cough).

Now, I am pretty sure if I worried less about such things that we would have actually forged a relationship...

So, I suppose... Many years later and I am still unsure about the "etiquite" in such situations... Thoughts?

Huh?

Oh, come on...It's perfectly clear.

No, it's really not.

Satan said it

Okay, when is it ok to poke your date with your boner in public, if it is unclear...

Yeah I'm with the devil on this one, I have no idea what the point of this question is.

I think he's asking something about cut/uncut, shaved/unshaved and how it relates to life, love, and his lap.

See, now that is a great question. You removed the muck, and got to the (inappropriately public) point.

Answer: Depends. And by that I mean, if she's wearing Depends, go for it.

Ahhh, the ol' "Shanghai Surprise", eh? Well, my girlfriend (who is now my fiance) and I have been dating for about a year and a half now, and I still get a slap and a dirty look when I come up behind her in the supermarket.

I'll also probably get slapped for posting this.

My reading of his post - "looking back, I think that she came on to me and I did not even notice. Did I miss an opportunity?".

See, that is the uncertainty... Depends. Seemed like we were heading towards sex, but we never made it there.

MetaTag... Yeah, that is the question too. But if it was a come on, it was a lot more subltle than what I was used to. So maybe it wasn't...

Hence the question. If it wasn't, would I have been slapped?

I say if you've held hands, you can poke her with the wang.

And it was not random poking. It was her there first. First time in my lap like that too, but not in a dirty way.

Given your description of the situation, I'd say that she probably wouldn't be suprised to feel a little "poke". Just don't grind it into her and you're probably safe.

She doesn't get the Digital until the 4th date, though.

And the match goes to Thistle.

That too.

That's just etiquette.

The real question is: how long did it take before you spilled your drink on her? Wink wink, nudge nudge.

So its a dumb question... And I knew the "Depends" was coming into the thread after that post!

This whole thing happened over ten years ago and there have been many chicks since then. But that situation has always been puzzling to me...

Essentially it boils down to... If she wanted some, I should have sat there. If I was just a friend, I did right and stood up. Maybe the real question is why someone I never even kissed called me her ex-boyfriend a year later?

If you were uncomfortable, you did right. The rest is guesswork.

It depends. How big is your penis?
