Etiquette in buying ladies drinks

edited April 2009 in All Encompassing Trip
I was out with my mate on Saturday night, and these 2 ladies called us over to their table where they were sitting. We were talking a while, I had my eyes on one girl, and my mate was my wing man. Anyhow, this girl my friend was talking to (An absolute bitch) starts saying how I was rude... I asked why She said "You should buy my friend a drink" I said "I will, but as soon as I finish my drink I will go to the bar"

She then says "In Switzerland where I am from, if a lady finishes her drink, then the man must go straight away and get her a new one. You are so rude blah blah blah"

I said "I have every intention to buy your friend a drink but when I am finished mine" This went on and on, I would of left, but the other girl seemed to be quite interested in me. About 5 minutes after I got her a drink.

Soon after my mate went to the toilet, and the girl went to the atm, and this bitch started quizzing me "Are you a virgin? When was the last time you had a girlfriend? How long did it last? Why did it end?"

I ended up getting the girls number but was what I did rude? She says in Europe the girl would run away if I did not get her a drink as soon as she finishes her last. Is this true??

Man she was a nasty piece of work.

    I think she likes you..... She was just flirting. (Not very well, but that's what it sounds like to me).

    Ah good read, Well I actually picked that vibe up. She said that she would never date me because I was too rude.

    Then after the little quiz she gave me, she started nodding, and smiling whiling giving me 'seductive eyes'. I kept saying "What? what do you want" "I knew what she wanted, but she was a cow. She was keen on me, but she was a bitch.

    I'm not European, but I would be flattered if you bought me a drink when YOU wanted too. Not because someone is telling you to.

    As far as I know, there are no hard and fast rules (granted I've been out of the dating game a loooong time now), maybe things have changed :? ;)

    Basically, she just sounds like a bitch, but maybe she was her girlfriends "wingman." ;):D (Although she sounds about as subtle as a bag of hammers dropping on your head! :roll: )

    you should have asked the rude friend to get drinks for both of you so you could keep talking. 8-)

    That girl is a bitch. I mean if you keep getting her drinks whenever she finishes, it would seem like you're trying to get her drunk.

    Doesn't sound like you were rude at all.

    I am Swiss and I should be ashamed about this fellow-countrywoman - she was talking absolute nonsense and seems to have bad manners herself.

    this could have been easily resolved by a swift punch to the fudd :)

    i never bought girls drinks... seems a bit 1900 for me... they want equality... well let them buy their own :)

    no ya didnt do anything wrong man. personally i love when girls go on the offensive like that, cos its a great chance to just have fun with them (either by being a bit cheeky with it, or by just offending them). One way you get the girl, and both ways you get a bit of a laugh.

    It's not because you consider it 'old fashion' (what an excuse!), it's because you are a tight, penny pinching scotsman!

    Women don't have wingmen (or wingwomen).
    They have 'cockblockers' ;)

    Girls, if a guy buys you a drink, do you buy him a drink next and then you both go round for round? That's what I used to do.

    I hate chicks that make men spend a shitload of cash on them when they aren't even interested in the guy at all. I also let a guy know straight away that I'm not single....and if he still wants to buy me a drink he can. Most guys don't bother to buy me a drink after I tell them that....which is fine....no point wasting their money on me when it's not going to get them anywhere.

    That should work. If not, the 'in hindsight' apologies will get you out of trouble, too ;)

    The other girl was quite nice. So I bought her a drink. But I didn't buy that other 'dumb bitch' a drink.
