I was picturing "you are being an asshole/rude. I'm leaving." and walking away. If she is yelling at him crazily, she would look crazy because he was unaffected. But here is the real issue.<br /><br />She was pouring it on him to get him angry or get him to care. The mature answer would be speaking up ("you are being an asshole/rude. I'm leaving.")and just leaving because it shows you don't care about him. Its like how some guys think being "brave"or "being a man" means escalating fights (to defend their ego) rather than laughing at the guy and walking away.

Plus, telling someone off is not always the best way to get through to them - it's just as likely to get you labeled crazy. Doing something drastic that is, I might add, totally harmless, might be more likely to get through to him. That isn't necessarily a selfish action or a situation where she is trying to prove herself. She may have just felt like it and thought he might notice that better than yelling at him - she'd already tried talking reasonably. Again, props to her for avoiding the fear of being labeled "crazy" and doing what she wanted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-44294562810980883982012-06-24T18:04:38.712-04:002012-06-24T18:04:38.712-04:00Connie: I think so.

If a guy would do that to a girl he would be a major jerk. But then the girl would be called a slut. <br /><br />My point was that what she did made her feel good. If just going away made her feel good, she would have done that. Anw we are civilized enough to agree to disagree i think. <br /><br />PS.

Passive would be standing there and doing nothing. Telling him off and walking away is realizing he's not worth it and moving on. Dumping a pitcher on a guy however is a sign of being childish or immature. It shows that he got to her and that she feels like she has to prove herself my making a show out of it.<br /><br />Think about it like this. Imagine a guy poured a half a pint of beer on a girl. For example, we've had stories where a girl got to drunk and went off ignoring the date for another guy. That didn't do that. How would you react there?<br /><br />Mia: I think our point is that its called childish for a reason. Its not a healthy response. Its an ego driven reaction that makes her come across as crazy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-17284886577335171882012-06-24T09:44:01.524-04:002012-06-24T09:44:01.524-04:00Im with the Tricia as well.

No point being angry at him as the first random letters and numbers poster said. It wouldnt register to the drunks. So why not make herself feel good? Pointless but its not like she was going out with him again.Mia the cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02927438665159260573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-42485601042708550412012-06-24T06:06:30.020-04:002012-06-24T06:06:30.020-04:00You know what, sometimes you just want to pour a p...You know what, sometimes you just want to pour a pitcher of beer on someone treating you like crap, and that is okay.

It probably made the Frat guys rally in his favour ("Man, women be crazy") so you probably helped him to make new friends.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13733974260099709340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-20793589567051303932012-06-23T19:24:18.729-04:002012-06-23T19:24:18.729-04:00SERIOUSLY?!
