differing nights out

[putter65]

Two people have left work recently and they both had leaving nights. I liked both of them so I felt I had to go.

Two weeks ago, we went to this busy pub. We had a meal and then did this quiz. I really enjoyed that night, I stayed until midnight and then walked this woman home.

Tonight we went to this indian restraurant. It was roughly the same people but didn't like it one bit. We were all sat around a table and there wasn't any music (or a quiz) - I tried my best to mix but nobody asked me a question all night (apart from questions regarding the meal), my attempts of conversation all died a death. I just spent most of the night starring into space. I also noticed the famous 'lean away from me' by the person sitting next to me. (This used to happen when I was younger and it upset me greatly, now not so much !) - I don't think it was me being in a grumpy mood or anything.

Oh well !

Did the quiz help you break the ice the first time? It sounds like that was a fun activity that you enjoyed with everyone else.

I've hard work nights out that were really hard for me so I know the feeling.

Maybe no-one enjoyed the second night out! It does happen, I think when work-mates get together they sometimes find they don't have that much in common. I know I have problems with nights out from work aswell!

I liked the quiz and felt it was something to talk about and do rather than just sit and there and talk. All the conversation last night was boring, eg x factor and there was so much noise I couldn't hear what people was saying.

The woman who had left was very nice and I liked her very much. Hadn't seen her for a couple of weeks so I was looking forward to seeing her. I asked her a few questions about her new job and then after that didn't get chance to talk much. After the meal they were going on a pub crawl so I went home, didn't want to be around aload of drunken women ! lol !
