How do you introduce your girl?

[skinnydart]

When you're going to a party or something with a girl, and it comes time for you to introduce your girl to your friends and stuff, I never know exactly how to do it.

I mean, they always come up to me and say "Hey skinny, is this your girlfriend?" and sinse we've only been dating a few times, I usually don't know what to say but usually something like "no, we've dated".

I mean is it better to be safe and just say that "this is my friend sara" or "this is my date" or "we're dating". Should I try to push the envelope or just play it safe?

I use to say something like:

"This is my friend HB, she's more friend than the others..." (big smile and look at her)

Unless you've talked about being mutually exclusive, introduce her as "Sara". You don't need to make any comments about dating or her being your date. It should be obvious.

If someone asks if she's your girlfriend, just respond with something non-committal...

FRIEND: "Is she your girlfriend?"
YOU: "Something like that. (smile)"

great hint guys

since they are between girlfriend and date, i think saying what squirrels said it would be a great way out

"Something like that. (smile)"

FRIEND: "Is she your girlfriend?"

YOU: "She hasn't quite earned that title yet."

Said with a hint of sarcasm obviously.

That's awesome.

lol... nice idea... but be carefull that she doesnt take offence to this and think that your an egotistical prick You need to make sure that she KNOWS that u are joking. I'm not saying your tip is bad, its actually quiet good, I'm just emphasising on the importance of making sure that she KNOWS that u ARE saying it in a joking manner

Laterz...

This is exectly how you should introduce a girl just as "Sara". You will sound like an insecure little highschooler saying stuff " Yes its my date, or my girlfriend".

Your friends are still immature if they need to resort to " Is this your girlfriend?" question. It should be given that if she is not your relative and you are bringing her with you, that something is going on between the two of you.

Doesn't that sounds kinda week though, like it would leave a confused look on both your date's and your friend's faces.

They say silence is golden. Just smile and nod yes with your head if they are dumb enough to ask that question in front of her.

Change the topic as soon as you can afterwards.

TOTALLY TRUE. I must be old, I am scratching my head because this is still a problem for so many of you. By the time I was 20, my friends all knew that if you showed up with a girl, by default you're either banging her or trying to. And that she was off-limits.

Unless you introduced her as your sister or something. But then of course she became fair game for all the other swine!

We'd just say, "how ya doing Mike/Joe/Billy/Hoover/Chumpy Stew/Fat Canseco? This is Susan/Heather/Francesca/Lori/Patti/Wendy/insert name here."

The sooner yall train your friends to stop saying that childish "girlfriend" word, the better off you'll be. Because the woman's gonna be out of her element anyway, and nervous, so anything clumsy you might say will rub her the wrong way.

I just say that we are good friends or that we are seeing each other

I guess more than "is this your girlfriend" I get the "who's your girlfriend?" particuluary by co-workers at the office. I'm never sure if I should correct him or just say "O, this is Sara, Sara, this is my supervisor/coworker/whatever"

 

[SamePendo]

"Hey, meet my future ex-wife"

 

[Fenderules]

lol oh no your coworker called your girl a girlfriend





look out your in trouble now!




who f*cking cares. seriously if its that big of a deal and she makes it that big of deal she is soooooooo insecure you should run for the hills.
