I live on campus in a UK university (Lancaster) and I use the gym on campus quite frequently to keep my fitness in check and to burn off calories from eating/drinking too much since I'm a naturally big guy.

Anyway, whenever I go on the cross trainer machines, there is often this girl I regard as absolutely stunning.. beyond all belief. She is the type of girl I'd love to have on my arm, but regard as too good for me, out of my league.. a third year not a first year.

Anyway, I'm in this club.. "The Carleton" in Morecombe (there's so many UKites on TOTSE, it's hard to believe) and she's there. I've grabbed this guy, whos a sort of friend of mine (not in my close circle and I kind of used to rival him in all things.. drinking/pulling) and I try and whisk him away from a girl who he can do better than (this guy has a natural charisma) to a pair of girls who are both looking. It happens that one of those girls is the gym girl (who he goes for) and the other is just a bog standard good looking girl. Instead of me recognizing her, it's her recognizing me and she's excited to see me, perhaps partly due to my semi-friend making awkard attempts to come onto her.

Later, I drunkenly admit (with the pretence that I'm trying not to be sleazy) that I really like it when she's exercising beside me because I think she's stunning and in effect, Donkey vs the fishing rod with a carrot on the end of it. She's flattered, rather than appalled and we hit it off in a decent conversation, so I ask for her number (I believe she's worth more than a drunken attempt to make out with) and she gives me it quite happily.

I couldn't believe it. Rather than being a "I'm way above you girl" she seemed quite down to earth as well as fun.

Tomorrow, I'm going to ring her. Despite the possibility I have the clap I'm going to make her my girlfriend (I'll get it fixed before I do anything sexual).

Maybe this is just drunken talk, but what do you think TOTSE.. have you ever pictured a girl/guy to be way out of your league but by some chance you might have gotten away with it. Everyone loves the lovable underdog story.

I've gotten away with it. I still find it hard to believe. Mainly because we ended up together regardless of our distance (we live in different states). We are also 5 years apart..
But it happens. Good luck to you and her :]

Moral of the story:

Don't judge people.

I hope you two hit it off well...

Godspeed. You're an idle to many of us Totseans.

At your age, constantly. I was really the underdog. I didn't have the parental money, the clothes or the car to make an impression...added to a personality that seemed to repluse women (thank you Mother dear)

Infact at age 17 I was voted by the girls at college to be the least attractive boy.

Yet within a few months I was bedding girls who only a short while before wouldn't have wanted to share the same oxygen with me. Infact some days i got laid/actioned by a different girl every recess.

This is me talking a little less drunk..

I kind of know a similar story.. I was a serious underdog just because I could be extremely odd at times. In school I was not quite a complete loser.. I was somewhat liked by just about everyone, but few good looking girls would have seen me as "a catch".

Now it is much easier to get somewhere with girls, I've matured into my looks a Northern Irish accent in England can work wonders. However I consider myself an underdog because I'm fairly consistently "out alpha-ed" by either friends or randomers.. guys coming over and chatting to the girl I'm already talking to. That and the girls I tend to go for are usually taken, so I don't get the ones I really like.

I think my initial post was pretty drink orientated.. last night I drank an entire bottle of the cheapest strong cider (3 litres of Frosty Jacks), got to the club, threw up and continued drinking.

It still stands though, I'm going to ring that girl sometime today and ask her does she want to hang out or if she's going out another night would she like to meet up.

Thanks for all your advice and encouragement guys.

yeah, happened to me. i had a crush on her for 2 years >.< i hate myself for waiting that fucking long to realize what a bitch she was.

Can you give me an Email/MSN Please bud? We're from the same place :)

Thanking you for that..

An idle? I like the sound of that.. but why? Is this because I'm doing the going out, drinking and socialising bit or has my posting made me some kind of hero?

Years ago in Ireland, there was a priest who was very anti-British. Every Sunday he would blast them from the pulpit. He became so notorious that the Pope himself summoned the priest to Rome for an audience.

"Father," said the Pope, "I want that there should be peace between the British and the Irish. You're not helping matters at all. I want you to kiss my ring and swear by the Blessed Virgin that you'll never so much as mention the British in public again."

"But Your Holiness, I - I - " the priest stammered.

"No buts," said the Pope. "Swear it here and now or there'll be trouble!"

"Aye, Holy Father," sighed the father. "All right. I swear it."

The very next Sunday just happened to be Easter, and the priest was back at his pulpit in Ireland, giving his annual Easter sermon.

He got to the part of the Easter story where Jesus said, "And one of you shall betray Me."

The priest continues: "Saint Andrew jumps up and says, 'Is it I Lord?' and the Lord says, 'Nay, Andy darlin', it's not you. Sit down now and dunna worry. Eat your supper.'

Then Saint John the Divine gets up with tears in his eyes and cries, 'Is it I Lord?' And the Lord says, 'Nay, Johnny me boy, it's not you. Sit down now and dunna fret yourself. Eat your supper.'

"Then that dirty dog Judas Iscariot slowww-ly rises to his feet. And he looks the Lord right in the eye and says, 'Blimey, Mate. Ya think it's me?"


:D "Wear the green, but don't drink it from a beerglass."

Thanking you for that..

Just boosting your ego. Never hurts to give someone confidence, especialy in a situation like this.

Again, Godspeed to you.

aww you just busted the poor kids bubble

zero was thinking he had an honest compliment for once in his life and now you say you did it out of pity for his miserable existence!

*Chuckles with both of you*

I have a tendency to think when drunk I can have any girl I choose, just there are certain ones I'd be doubtful of.

Alcohol doesn't have the nickname "liquid courage" for no reason...

And, as for your situation, go for it. Be confident, and it's obvious she had fun last time. Tell us how it goes after you call her.

Oh, and don't over think things. You want to have fun too, or beng with her would be completely pointless.

Get to it, boy.

Definatley, dont judge people before you start talking to them. I cant even list the number of times ive been intimidated by girls, and once i got to know them and started talking to them i realized that theyre not that far ofscale and that they are actually pretty down to earth.

Did the girls start liking you after you realized you were a masochist/sodomist/whatever you are that makes you want to spank people?

She's finished all her exams and gone back to Wales.. sounds like I might have to wait till October to get my shot at her again.

Ah well, till then I'm going to work on getting my magic number up a little before mid September (anniversary of when I first popped my cherry.. there's been 3 girls since.)

Thanks for your support totseans!

Stay in contact... make a point of saying that you want to see her again :)

You guys asked for an update..

I kind of tried texting her but for some reason it didn't go through, I'm assuming she made up the number as I looked her up on a friend's facebook and said hello.

No reply. Well, sounds like she could have been being polite. I did complement her a fair bit.

Back to the lab again, more pimping is required.

Just... one question.

"Donkey vs the fishing rod with a carrot on the end of it."

What the hell does this mean?

Good luck in any event mate. Could always find a sheep to tide you over til October.
