Hey there,
one of my friends is in a sticky situation atm.
He asked me for advice and I am just following one of the important rules in life here: You have problem in reallife? Ask advice on the internet....
That being said, here is the story:
My friend (we might call him "Görlitz" here) is a fan of the awesome band DOWN and he is trying to see as many concerts as possible. Last year for example he took a flight to NY (from Germany that is) just to see a gig there. He then drove on to Philly and from there to Boston for to additional shows.
Well, so far this has nothing to do with tha current problem...
Like most people, Görlitz likes to waste some time with facebook, writing msgs to hot chicks that like DOWN and/or are from New Orleans. Uhh, getting interesting now....
When we met in his room to learn for an exame, he checked his mails first and suprise suprise, one of the chicks answered and offered him a crash in New Orleans and to go out and have some/many drinks. I started joking that he should just buy a ticket and fly over there. Instead of learning too too much this afternoon, we were scrolling through prices for flights from Germany to NO.
We actually found a great offer that he actually would be willing to pay.
So you now might think, w00t, why is he not just getting on the plain, listen to DOWN for a week while being drunk and heving sex.... You might well ask, here is the answer:
The problem is, he is not a SC nerd like we are, so he actually has a girlfriend. (If you dont know girlfriend, google it..) She likes DOWN as well and she also likes to travel so she might want to go with him if he just tells her that he wants to go to NO... You might notice, that Görlitz isnt supposed to tell her this story or he would be in some trouble here. For those who dont know about girlfriends, what would basically happen is simmilar to the pron you might know which is called '*** cheating her boyfriend'. You might google this as well.... 
What I am now here for are two things:
1.) I want to ask you, should he buy a ticket and fly to NO? (Poll)
Poll: One week full of DOWN and SEX and ALCOHOL?Na, respect others feelings. Alcohol is actually bad and I dont know much about sex either (17) 74% Yes, how can you even ask?! (6) 26% 23 total votes Your vote: One week full of DOWN and SEX and ALCOHOL? (Vote): Yes, how can you even ask?!
(Vote): Na, respect others feelings. Alcohol is actually bad and I dont know much about sex either
2.) Please help and be creative. What could he do to get out of this safley and without having to take his girlfriend with him...?
p.s. Answers from people who like DOWN will be counted twice, so please tell if you know/like them when you answer the poll...
EDIT:
Pls dont take this OP too serious... I am not posting this because I want an actual answer but mch more to hear some cool stories or funny ideas how to pull of such situations.
Thinking about this blog seriously will make results obvious. Ofc you shouldnt do such things...

i'd like to see your friend get "into the plain" :D
just fly there and do not fuck the chick? problem solved
|
How old is this girl..? If she's young, just lie to her. If she's older, they know better so you need to be more sneaky and creative; lying works.
You could always just lie to her too.
Seriously though, the best way is to say you are going with the boys/some place she wouldn't want to go; as all men do when they are getting away from the wife, simply call her everyday and .. lie.
Is this morally right? OFC not. Is your question? OFC not. Do I have a girlfriend? OFC not. Did I have a girlfriend that I lied to and got away with for a couple years, yes... But it catches up and, well, I am sitting at a computer at 3AM jerking off to asian teens. So, that can just show you how well lying pays off.

break up with gf fuck random chick.
because he obviously doesn't care about his gf at all if he has to make a decision
|
Bad idea. For one he doesn't know the girl outside of FB. If she flakes, he's in New Orleans by himself. Also, she could turn out to be fat/psycho etc. What you see online is not what you get IRL. That's part of the beauty of it, you can fill in the missing gaps yourself and look forward to an awesome week! When in reality he could get hurt. He can also hurt someone he loves with his stupid actions. If you don't know what that is, google it. Why is he even looking for other girls on FB? As for putting aside school work, his future plans etc. it's his decision to make. Though if he was half a man he would break it off with his girlfriend first. Should have probably done it already.

What's wrong about being alone in New Orleans? I heard they have vagina there, but it could be just a rumor. And if he was half a man, he would break it off; instead he is a whole man, and knows if he pulls this off, he will still have something to come home to.
You are putting morals into your answer

what the fuck did i just read
so your friend is contemplating flying half way across the world to see a band that he has already seen and to meet a random girl when he already has a girlfriend that likes the band?

I think you should google condescending jerk myself.
Break up with girlfriend and go obviously, since he doesn't care about her. Maybe he can get an STD too! What a deal.

He needs to consider the consequences of his actions. If he ends up hurting someone he might regret what he has done and it might wear him down. If he is a normal human with values and a soul. Then again, he can be a shallow shell looking to score, in that case I wish his g/f the best of luck in her future and hope she can find a healthy guy in her future.

Yes we're all aware of what is right/wrong. Sewi was making this fun, and he was right :

You know any good forums that isn't full of greasy, unfunny nerds? You should probably respond quickly as this post will probably get me banned from one of the greasy, unfunny nerds

I liked the first reply to this blog. Anyways, TL is stil the best forum I know about. I am not very familiar with blogs at all, because I do not use this feature too often.
The actual thing I like about TL (grown up people with nice posts and real oppinions) made this blog fail I think. Should have pointed out that I wasnt too serious in the OP but maybe then the blog would have lost its purpose anyways.
|
Pheew, I'm so glad TL ruined this blog. This meens TL is full of sensitive, responsible people who live in a healthy and trustworthy relationship, just like me.
When I first read the OP I was already hoping for someone eloquent to post to set his head straight. For me neither some band nor sex is attractive enough to spend a large amount of money, time and nerves. I'm just a happy, monogame nerd.
You are wondering why I bother posting then? Well, I'm currently on a speed run to write a paper about Callisthenes and Alexander the Great which I have to hand in tomorrow. Rather unfortunate, because my major is geography and my latin really sucks, I can't speak greek and I don't care that much about this topic...

UHHH WATS A GRILFRIEND!?!?? IS DAT LIK PRON BUT IRL???
God damn, you're a prick. Let's be serious, if your friend is already seriously considering spending a shit load of money to fly to NO, fuck random chicks (pretty sure you can do that in Germany), spend a shit load on alcohol (now I KNOW you can find that in Germany), and see a band that he has already seen 3+ times within the past year or so, then he's got his mind set.
I know you probably think these things called "morals" are lame as fuck, but the least you can do is convince him to break up with his gf.

I dont want to offend you with this post but you should have read through the whole post and its edit. I wanted to make clear, that it shouldnt be taken too serious and betraying his gf isnt actually an option here
Actually I myself am in a long term relationship and wouldnt even think about doing something like this.
I guess, most readers didnt get that it was supposed to be funny (or maybe it just wasnt.. )

I started the post before the edit came through but I still don't see in the original post where cheating on his gf wasn't an actual option. And if this is a thread about posting fun stories about people getting out of sticky situations regarding girlfriends/friends/family/cops, then I don't think you set it up very good. It's more confusing than anything.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I now somewhat understand what you were going for, and I don't think you're an asshole or anything. But you set it up that made yourself look like a pretentious prick and it looked like you were being sincere cause you followed it with a very detailed story and asked for actual opinions.

Ah ok,
and yes, I see that this blog failed quite a bit 
Maybe I should just delete the OP?! Or maybe not. I will wait a few hours and decide it then

I do understand that people thought about it like this.
Thing is, that I was making fun with him about such things and that the fun part was pretty obvious from our perspective. I guess the lack of this background knowledge killed it

Wait what?
OP, so what you are saying is that your BRO is worried that his girlfriend will cheat on him while he is flying across the ocean to meet random sluts?
WTF
|
Pssh. I hope the girlfriend randomly comes across this thread whilst browsing the internet and kicks his ass.
edit: PS: down sucks.

Hmm First blog I read on TL and already had some hints it wasn't all too serious. But I have to say that it's quite some story even though "the friend" isn't the good thing but just the side stories about the band and going all the way to another country to see the band etc was interesting. It's realistic since I saw on the news 2 days ago about a German family visiting Holland and all other places in Europe to see this German band that is touring through Europe so that's why I found it quite interesting to read.
I didn't read the original post (read the edit part too in the OP) so I don't really know what was in there but judging from reactions from other users I can guess what it was
Anyways maybe next time a bit funnier story with the same side stories without the moral issues like you posted
And if that story ever were to happen to anyone. All I can say is God I hope you don't get stabbed in the back by someone you love in the future (like your wife cheating like the way you do :D just for the irony ).

actually, thats exactly the way I / we feel, too.....

They are a great talented band with really good musicians. They actually have a story to tell and dont come up with some random shit like many current bands do.
If you like them or not is another question but saying that they suck is pretty ignorant
