The Town Drunk
As someone who just turned 48 and has been with his wife since he was 19 years old, I am enjoying the swashbuckling tales of our young squire and his adventures on the town.
As a 47 year old married man of 20 years I fully agree. I've done the nice guy not the right time 2x and neither was my wife and looking back I should've just nailed them when I had the chance...so stupid. Pre marriage of course. Happily married for the most part.I'm a stereotypical "nice guy" when it comes to the fairer sex, some of the ludicrous stories in my thread notwithstanding. I learned a while back that these situations can often be counter-intuitive. There have been a handful of situations where I have chosen to "do the right thing" rather than what I wanted to do simply because I thought I was being a gentleman. Turns out it was the wrong move, both short and long term, every time. Maybe that's just my experience and a small sample size that I'm drawing from so I'm not preaching this as gospel here, it just colored my thinking going forward. And led to better stories in the process...
Yeah that's it. Totally.Sounds like the sage words of someone who's been a beta all too many times
Doesn't make what I said any less truthful.Didn't someone accuse you of being cstu? I see the doushy resemblance.
Exactly. It's good, solid writing with a bit of suspense.As someone who just turned 48 and has been with his wife since he was 19 years old, I am enjoying the swashbuckling tales of our young squire and his adventures on the town.
Kate could have joined in.....just sayin......Also, why were you concerned about anyone walking in while having sex? Neither of you were dating the other people, right?
Right with you in age and years married. Last time I had to play the nice guy role was 3 years ago. Thankfully, the Mrs hasn't made me regret that decision........yetAs a 47 year old married man of 20 years I fully agree. I've done the nice guy not the right time 2x and neither was my wife and looking back I should've just nailed them when I had the chance...so stupid.
Trust the "man". He speaks from experienceDoesn't make what I said any less truthful.
Quite possibly the hardest choice I've made in my life.
Not mutually exclusive in this scenario.let's not go there
Yes I have my masters in professional bar flys.Trust the "man". He speaks from experience
My second date with Kate was to see Chris in concert at a casino. she scored some free tickets and invited me. It was last year so that song wasn't released yet, but decent show, considering it was free.Can we start a campaign to send Ron down to help train the Colonel ?
I'm with the majority here, hope this works out but can't see the negative of giving the lady what she wants. I mean it didn't sound like she was sloppy drunk, just buzzed enough to probably ask for what she wanted right then.
Guess Chris Jansen wrote this tune about our hero https://youtu.be/CodZnwdoRK8
Whoa whoa whoa cowboy. Slow this thing down a bit. You don't wanna give us too much in 1 day.Got my deadline met, just waiting on confirmation. If I get that shortly as I expect, I will have the next update posted this afternoon.

Your entire second paragraph had me I appreciate the honest question. I will give an honest answer. I honestly wasn't going to this shindig in hopes of hooking up with anyone. I was going to be in the company of other adults, consume some libations, witness some shenanigans, and just have a good time without the burden of having to be a responsible adult/parent for the night. I've not had many opportunities to do this in the last couple of years especially, since I have my kids nearly 100% of the time, so I wasn't on the prowl. I just got lucky I guess, or not, if you choose to see it that way. I'm going with the former.Can I ask a dating rule question? Again, I've been with my wife for 20 years, and while I'm sure I have a different memory of my single days, the various girls who were the focal point of those times could very well say I was a putz with idiot tendencies, so I'm not trying to be super dumb alpha male here.
I understand the nice guy thing. To be honest, I remember doing it once and it worked out fine. Not the point. But, from what you wrote, you basically spent what amounts to the entire night with this woman, were drinking and laughing and partying and having a good time together. She agreed to transport with you to a location you chose never once it appears wavering from being near and with you. Got there, and from your story managed to get to at least short stop on the way to the world's easiest triple in about 4.3 seconds while screaming that she wanted the ball to go over the wall.
I grant she was drunkish and you weren't, but my question is------ isn't that scenario, in its entirety, the very reason why you go out with the opposite sex? Like, it seems to me that right up until that point you were doing everything "right" and in fact you don't want to be drunk at our age because the liquor effects performance a hell of a lot more after 40 than it does before 40. What am I missing? (Not attacking you NJR, but just trying to understand the dating scene these days I guess....)
Indeeeeeeeeeeeed..... /omarMy second date with Kate was to see Chris in concert at a casino. she scored some free tickets and invited me. It was last year so that song wasn't released yet, but decent show, considering it was free.
And fair point. I never said I didn't regret my decision, just that that's what I had decided in a split-second decision, and why. Trust me, I've second-guessed it.
But let's not forget, this tale hasn't concluded yet either. I've had to type out everything already knowing the conclusion (at least to date) but trying to relay it as I experienced it at the time, and reply to comments without giving away spoilers.
You have no idea what you're talking aboutPlus, many women take this “no” as a rejection of their womanly charms and don’t take said rejection lightly.
You often then don’t get the opportunity to explain the “no” or get a second offer.
Definitely lucky. I don't even have kids and it's been nearly impossible for me to find nights out like this just because everyone I know has been castrated by their succubus wives. Finding a group of women to go out with would be fantastic, but unlike you, I am married and that probably wouldn't sit particularly well with the Mrs. She knows that a slab of USDA Prime Rib like me with a wedding band on and a quiver full of jokes at the ready would quickly become a target for penis-bouncing.A little move I like to call the Bayou Beckon

I can totally understand that viewpoint. And comedy of the situation aside, the fact that you can be the "adult" in all of these situations while being a single dad is a testament to you being more of a man than most who would make fun of you, so good for you.A little move I like to call the Bayou Beckon

I see @Spike's point for sure. And I probably didn't describe it well enough, but trust me when I say I made damn sure she knew that I was definitely into her and wanted what she wanted.You have no idea what you're talking about
I'm betting most of the armchair QBs know exactly how this goes.finished the second she said that and had to cover your tracks with her so to speak. That is totally more believable to this crew.
I hope the bolded is accurate in her mind as well as yours. If so, I'm less concerned. If not.....well.... by now the Swilling cup is probably in the dishwasher or the garbage. Move on to the Sam Mills cup.I see @Spike's point for sure. And I probably didn't describe it well enough, but trust me when I say I made damn sure she knew that I was definitely into her and wanted what she wanted.
No.I see @Spike's point for sure. And I probably didn't describe it well enough, but trust me when I say I made damn sure she knew that I was definitely into her and wanted what she wanted.
No, he was drinking all night but didn't tell us what they had for dinner. I mean I guess you can assume that they had crawfish at some point given where he lives. And since the story doesn't end with him in bathroom with his guts coming out, the dinner agreed with him, so yeah on some level it was probably good crawfish. If they had it. I'd be curious though what he did have for dinner. I know a big solid dinner makes me tired especially if I combine a full night of drinking. But he championed through the night, so it was probably something light I would guess. Or at least not fried. Friend food on dates, death.So NRJ had some good ole fashioned Louisiana crawfish....... if you know what I mean
after he finger blasted her? no offense but you are way off here. she is thinking there is an issueNo.
Rejecting a chick in the manner you did is fine. It ads to her intrigue about you.
The trick is when you finally get the chance to smash that #### she's been building you up in her mind so you better give the performance of a lifetime. I'm talking laser beams and unicorns

Our hero laced a rope into right center field gap. The RF and CF both dove for it and collided face to face in a heap. The LF initially didn't move but had to run to RF to get the ball back into the infield. Neither the pitcher or 2B lined up to take the relay and the throw went all the way to the backstop. The catcher strolled to the backstop, stopped to refresh his Copenhagen, picked up the ball and sauntered back to the plate.I just skipped from the update, to EG's comments, to here - I basically avoided the nonsense in between.
Colonel, can you catch us up to real time?

There's times when it smells like it has expired.And there's no expiration date on it.
Love me a good baseball analogyOur hero laced a rope into right center field gap. The RF and CF both dove for it and collided face to face in a heap.

Colonel is at 3B waiting for the pitcher to throw the ball into the stands on the next play.
Bo Jackson's about to throw out Harold Reynolds at the plateLove me a good baseball analogy
I'd be willing to wager on this one, say $100, that I'm right and you're wrong.after he finger blasted her? no offense but you are way off here. she is thinking there is an issue
Too soon, GB. Too soon.I hope the bolded is accurate in her mind as well as yours. If so, I'm less concerned. If not.....well.... by now the Swilling cup is probably in the dishwasher or the garbage. Move on to the Sam Mills cup.
Sweet Christ, you want to bet on an anonymous message board. Isnt that so 2001ish?I'd be willing to wager on this one, say $100, that I'm right and you're wrong.
True, but in that scenario the pitcher would never be lining up for a relay, he would be backing up home/3rd.Love me a good baseball analogy
