Does your wife have stupid friends?

[Prubangboy]

I was stuck at the sushi bar last night with a dead wood couple that my wife met at her hair salon.

 

No banter, a lot of blanked-out repeating of stuff like, "sometimes it's hot, I don't mind if it's a little hot, but if it's too hot, I don't like it.".  It was like eating with RainMan.

 

I tuned out. She hates that. New rule: 3 meetups with her first now before they graduate to me.

 

Who does your wife love that you strive to avoid?

[Dante99]

So you were unable to  find anything to talk about that caught their interest and got them talking.  And it is their fault.

Thai couple, foreign couple, Thai-speakers, English-speakers, same language-as-you-speakers...? 

The weather was the only subject that you could bring up, also?   Perhaps they thought the same of you?

That reads like you're the problem, but fear not, we have quite a few miserable members here....

No, it was his hearing aid battery...........

Canadians. Theoretically, fairly left by US standards, so should be somewhat on my team. So far, no luck.

 

Another example:

 

My wife said she was going to London and was ready for a little cool weather and had just bought a fleece -this was after the hot, but not too hot boondoggle; which I have considerably condensed.

 

RainMan said: A turtleneck, a turtleneck, a black turtleneck. You can wear it anywhere. If it's cold, you could put on the turtleneck. A black turtle neck, so you could wear it anywhere".

 

She knows that I'm either checking out or I'm going to troll. Since I ordered food, I can't leave until I eat it.

On the three occasions that I had a wife, couples just like you and your wife were the ones to avoid!

 

I wonder if the couple with you were thinking, "Hope we see you next Tuesday?

People are more into my wife than me. I'm more into my wife than me too.

 

I'm a three-timer too. So is my wife.

That's why older guys get younger women. More sex, less talking about the weather.

Long may your thing run.

 

But I'm more into having some laughs than turtleneck ruminating.

 

Def agree: Boomers are the worst at blathering (and I am one).

The most intelligent people you will ever meet will be in your 18 to 22yo years when people are studying.

Not if you have a decent job and mingle with people who do use their brain.

Most of those people are busy.

Problem is simply that you have only Trump left to talk about now, an all-consuming obsession taking up whatever brain cells you once had. Solution: have your wife bird dog for fellow Trump bashers. They will seem, to you, highly educated, informed, and intelligent, so leading to a VERY enjoyable evening with good company.

They will be highly educated and intelligent     big flop

[it is what it is]

 

sounds like you're lacking in social etiquette. be polite, make an effort, you never know the other people might actually be interesting, and you might even enjoy yourself.

Even the best albums ever made have filler tracks. Same with conversations with new people. Is it possible as soon as you hear a mediocre piece you zone out and don't give the rest of the conversation a chance to produce a truly memorable song?

While that idiot was in broken record-mode about the turtleneck ("It never goes out of style")., I ate two thirds of the waygu beef roll on the table.

 

And that was a 1,500 baht roll.

Attaboy, keeping up your house duties. 3x a week whether she/he needs it or not, helps keep poison out of your food. 👍🏼

As a native Canadian, I had to remind him:

 

Tip-ping is not a city in China.

Actually it's just receiving service for payments. The exact amount of payment, in total, including full tuition for her daughter, won't be revealed.
