Lamest story ever -- Dating Class

One of my friends told me this the other night...

She and four of her girlfriends were at a bar in Houston together. At the table next to them was a group of about 10-15 guys. Two of the guys came over and talked to them. After a couple of minutes, these two left and two others came over and talked. This repeated every 2-3 minutes like clockwork. A few of the guys had mentioned they were gay.

One of her friends thought one of the gay guys was nice, so she gave him her phone number and said to call if he'd like to hang out. She met him for lunch a couple of times, went shopping, went to dinner. Somewhere in this, he tried to kiss her. She shoved him away and said, "I thought you were gay?" He said, "I just wanted to see what it was like."

A couple of dinners later, the guy is really edgy and finally asks her "Am I the only guy you're dating?"

She screams WTF?!?!?! and demands to know what's up.

Turns out that he's taking a "class" in how to meet girls. The 10-15 guys at the table each making conversation for 2-3 minutes each was one of their "field assignments," and the "teacher" was there giving them advice. One of the things the "teacher" told them was that it's easier to meet girls if you tell them you're gay.

The worst part -- this poor guy has been in this class for 4+ years.

Apparently, I was just a big-*** fuzzy hat, hoop earrings, an eyeliner application and a pair of binoculars(?) away from getting laid a lot more when I was a younger man.
 
I wonder if she got any phone calls from the instructor requiring verification of the level of success of each student, thus justifying his grade.
 
What bar in Houston? I'd love to run into this bunch, observe them, and then, after gaining the courage that comes from consuming grain alcohol, just call them out at the top of my lungs.
You can run a lot faster scared than you can mad, drunk or not.

Suddenly I feel much less lame.

Seriously though, wouldn't red flags have gone up for women if they're sitting near a table with a bunch of guys, and the guys appear to be coming over and talking to them in shifts? I would at least thought "bar bet" or something.
 
ok, houston guys. time for 10-15 of you to get together, go get shitcanned at the same bar a couple tables over. then, 2-3 at a time, go over to them and talk **** and start pushing and shoving and pouring drinks on them.

then later, when anyone asks, just say you're in a fight starting class.
 
i think she probably thought it might be a bar bet or something and i'm sure it probably brought up a red flag of some sort, but i think deep down you can't possibly think of anything this pathetic so she gave them a pass
 
Just talked to her again...

The bar was Pub Fiction.

And yes, they all thought 10-15 guys at one table coming over at groups of two was weird at the time. At least all of the (five?) girls except one did, and she only gave out her number because the guy said he was gay. That worked out well.

I told her that if I were running Dating Class, we'd watch The Tao of Steve on the first night. If you haven't seen it, google it.
