Women Picking Up Men, It’s a Beautiful Thing

by Sara on September 5, 2007

Two of my friends recently picked up guys and I’m so proud of them that I have to brag.

The first I was a witness to and an instigator to, really. On Sunday I attended a small benefit with friends. After a couple of hours I was ready to leave, but my friend asked me to stay. I really didn’t want to stay so I thought I’d throw out some crazy proposition ensuring my departure.

“I’ll only stay if you go over and grab that cute boy’s biceps,” I said as I pointed across the bar.

Without hesitation my friend walked right up and began grabbing. I am and was impressed. Although I did stay for a little while longer, I did leave earlier than she did so I didn’t know about the number exchange until later. Way to go, friend.

Craigslist

The second is a sweet story about another one of my friends and a very missed connection.

On Monday afternoon she and her roommate sat enjoying a beer on a restaurant patio when they randomly began talking with two men. The four casually discussed life, and coincidentally, the funny goings-on at the Craigslist Missed Connections page. They all innocently flirted for hours, but to my friend’s dismay she was never asked for a phone number.

Sad, but also giddy at the idea of posting her own missed connection on Craigslist, she went straight home and logged on. She posted her missed connection and less than 12 hours later he responded with a phone number and a “you’re cute.”

That is cute, isn’t it?
