My old company, we had a 30ish chinese guy (white washed/born here), and there was a bunch of messy stuff going on in their friends group

Best example was like 14 of them went on a whistler ski trip or something, but his ex was there, AND he was actively chatting up another girl in the group.
By the middle of the trip he was making out with the "new" girl, and then his other male friend overheard his ex being upset that she found out about his new toy and told him. WHAT DO YOU EXPECT, WOMAN?

That is just straight up comedy. Dont remember how long who dated who or whatever details, but oh yeah, theres a bunch of eskimo brother stuff going in there.

By this point im sure he is onto #3 or #4 girl of his friend group, dude was build like Gerbs, pussy lined up around the corner




Actually, you know what, to be fair, ive had some "messy" stuff in my life too, so i shouldent be talking lol.

My favorite example was when i stopped seeing a chick, the chick wanted to bang my friends to get on my nerve, so her and my closest friend did some base 1 shit.
My closest friend never told me.
Somehow i ended up porking her a year later and she told me about what they did.
I never confronted my buddy about it. (Salivating for the perfect moment)
About a year later same buddy was over at my place, and the conversation on his end went to: something along the lines of "i had this asshole friend at work that tried to bang my ex".
To which i said "oh yeah dude thats SUPER shady, kinda like that time you and ________ did stuff behind my back and never told me, yeah dude".
My friend just froze and started to turn red from embarrassment, it was hilarious, followed by puckering his lips with a "oh crap" look.
We hugged it out, i didnt care, was just funny more than anything.

That same chick did a photoshoot in the lake with my other close friend (friend being the photographer). (Which he asked me about before even going)
I go to my buddies place a week later, and he says: "so that was an odd shoot, i think she was trying to fuck me. After we finished the photos, she asked me if she could come over to "use my shower and clean up", to which i didnt think twice, and said no to. Then she tried again when we were walking back to our cars in a different format, i didnt think anything of it at the time, but by the time i was driving home........"
Gold, absolute gold.

I got some other dark moments with the trio of 10s i mentioned in my previous post, but those you can ask me about in person only lol.

I should write a book on the stupidity of my life

In highschool, it was the popular kids who did this. I always thought it was gross that they would mess around with each other and then move on within the same group of friends. Like, isn't that weird as shit...? I dunno.

I do know one pharmacist who admits this is what she always does. Date someone within the current group of friends. To her credit, I guess her friend groups have changed over time but it goes towards what you mentioned.

I never got it either, but maybe cuz I was never tight with a large in-group of friends. I mean you're kissing your new gf and a few month's ago she had your bud's cock in her mouth.

In other news...end of an era!

Is it norm to take this long nowadays? Back in college years when I was actively dating, I remember the average time to go from talking-->gf didn't take all that long. Maybe a month top if that.

Curious to see what's the timeline roughly? Only thing I could think is that as college kid, we had a lot more time, so we'd spend exponentially more time together than to say 2 ppl who are working and could only allocate so much time weekly.
