I met G at a party (Sunday lunch /afternoon ) We left together as everyone else leaving . He wanted to go back to his flat (tube ride away) but I said I would prefer to go to a cafe etc for a coffee . Passed many coffee houses but G not interested. We arrived athis place. " I have v expensive curtains, you know" he said . Making out he was a good catch? Yes, he was in prime Central London location. I still did not think idea of going back to his pad any good.Then a kind of sexual encounter took place on his sofa- this is so embarrassing-he just could not do it! I admit I did not really want to get so intimate with him at this stage and the whole thing just put me off him. In addition, I was always inundated with other offers of sexual things with men so no big deal really. I woke up on other side of bed with him asleep on other side so no contact with him. He then tried to made another date with me involving his travelling quite a distance to see me but I had gone off him.

And he found exactly what he was looking for, didn't he?

Why on earth would you go back to someone's flat if you clearly didn't want to? And even worse, why on earth would you behave like a twat and then post about it without even asking a question? Surely you know what we're all going to say about it. Don't you think you were acting rather desperate too? If you are always inundated with other offers of sexual things with men, have a good think about why? It isn't clever you know, to act like a common hooker. At least they get paid for it though.

A friend of a friend means he's totally safe to go home with after knowing for a couple of hours? One word NIAVE

GypsyMoth · 24/04/2011 16:52

why did you not insist on stopping for coffee......why couldnt you stand up for yourself?

Beckamaw · 24/04/2011 16:54

I think you should get married forthwith. HTH.
I ended up marrying someone whose house I visited following notification of his 'hilarious curtains'. Aforementioned curtains did not even make me chuckle. 11 years later we face divorce. That is all.

Earlybird · 24/04/2011 17:00

Were you both drunk? Not that that would excuse anything.

If you don't mind me asking - how old are you?

Celibin · 24/04/2011 17:05

Very happy with new guy.Knew him 6 months before relationship started .

When did mumsnet get so fucking judgemental about women having sex? Hmm

OP, you sound so far up your own arse that you are actually peering out of your mouth. That said, shag who you like, or don't. Most people won't care.

shinydiscoball · 24/04/2011 18:00

Please would everyone back off a bit, as BestNameEver has already pointed out the OP has been posting a lot lately - I suspect all is not as black and white in this situation as you may assume.

beatenbyayellowteacup · 24/04/2011 20:58

I don't understand how something happened (or not) on the sofa, then she woke up on the other side of the bed....?

discobeaver · 24/04/2011 21:07

sadly OP it sounds as if he didn't go much for your curtains....

ShinyHappyPeopleHoldingHands · 24/04/2011 21:12

Oh I love Mumsnet, I do :) I don't even care that every time I pop back with an urgent query only MNers can help with (as opposed to my prolific posting days when I was "one of the gang") I get seriously ignored; when I see a thread like this (and sorry if its not supposed to be funny... but let's face it, is IS) I shake with laughter! I also just CRIED with mirth over someone's DH's "hammed up consumptive cough" just now....:) :D (not without sympathy.. just so so funny and clever the way it was written!)

How do I stay away I wonder??!

(What were the curtains actually like please Celibin?)

MigratingCoconuts · 24/04/2011 21:16

I really don't get this thread at all [buconfused]

TragicallyHip · 24/04/2011 21:18

I don't actually understand the question is! Confused

vickylou2004 · 24/04/2011 21:20

Stupid thread, but still watched with interest!

QuintEggSentialPaints · 24/04/2011 21:24

how do you know he was bad in the sack?

you should have checked his net curtains, not just his networth and his crystal....

ninah · 24/04/2011 22:23

it's not so much what they cost as how they're hung

Celibin · 25/04/2011 07:31

Brilliant replies.It is all true but my main purpose was to entertain you.Going now all the best xxxxx

Anniegetyourgun · 25/04/2011 08:25

Entertain? Say rather, confuse.

Never mind, I think that last post meant that it was a hypothetical scenario.

Curtaingate may or may not go down in the history of "things posters quote to prove they're long-standing regulars", only time will tell.

MigratingCoconuts · 25/04/2011 09:33

well, I for one am thoroughly entertained.

whomovedmychocolate · 25/04/2011 09:42

Are you still drunk OP? You may want to see someone about that. :)

I think you are clearly quite bonkers. From what I gather from your insane ravings posts, you met a chap who seemed nice and left a party together but instead of getting coffee at a coffee shop, you went back to his place but while his mind was willing, the flesh was illing? Perhaps as a result of all the alcohol, perhaps something else. So your fumble was thwarted and you left but he wanted to try again at a later date?

Have I missed something here? No I don't think so. The honest truth is that you are either a fantasist or just quite misguided. Were his curtains sort of human skin coloured by chance?

FreudianSlipper · 25/04/2011 10:10

not sure who is more pathetic him for trying to charm you with his expensive curtains or you for so desperately trying to please a man and having or attempting to have sex with him even when you didn't want to

you may be very attractive inundated with dates but you also come across as a little insecure (needing to inform us more than once) and a little desperate and that he could probably read you a mile off
