Re: Potential relationship question
Make sure you win in any kind of competition you guys embark upon. Putt-putt, go-carts, video games, arm wrestling, who gets to the car first, etc. You're going to want show her you mean business.
Actually I had a date back in the day where we ended up playing some derivative of the name game at a party and I had to come up with someone who had the initials "N.T.". Feeling like a baller, I dropped Nikoloz Tskitishvili on 'em (stealing a look at my date to see if she was impressed), but one of her guy friends disputed me on it. Now, she had just talked to me earlier that day about how she didn't like guys who were too competitive in things that didn't matter, but I was really proud I was able to come up with Nikoloz in the first place (it was a clutch answer). But that dude persisted, as if he were trying to take me down.
"That starts with an "S"."
"Nah, it's a "T"."
"I don't think so, that's an "S"."
"Ha, trust me, man. I'd know. The "T" is silent."
". . . ."
Even half-jokingly, insisting that I knew Tskitishvili began with a "T" and not an "S" was enough to make the situation awkward and showcase my apparent inability to not take something seriously. My date went from shooting me secret looks and smiles to avoiding eye contact and almost looking sad. It was like I killed her dog or something.
