Wingman

Light reading, but humorous. My recollections of playing the wingman role were me and my friends divvying up the prey according to preferred body type. And alcohol. Lots of alcohol.

I have a friend who is the world's worst wingman. The guy is so self-ego serving that even when he had a girlfriend, and I was single, he would make moves on girls safe in the knowledge that he would opt out of sealing the deal at the last minute. "Technical pulling" as we used to describe it.

Sounds like a good target for a kick to the nuts.

I played the female wingman many a times with some friends when we used to go to the clubs. And a female wingman just takes the place of the girl in her group as the guy dances/shakes the sheets/whatever with his chosen. And I was usually played bait too. "Hey, I know this is really high schoolish and I feel so stupid playing 10th grade games, but I have never seen my guy friend over there act like this about someone he's just seen at a club. He really thinks you're cute, but he got all shy all of a sudden and I HATE to think that he's passing up an opportunity to meet someone great." Since I'm a girl, the other girl didn't think it was really a pick up or too sleazy. It usually came across as cute and it cleared the way for my friend to go over.

Once the girl was separated from her group, I just stayed with her group for a few minutes chatting about girl stuff while my guy friend did his magic. Only time when this blew up in my face was when a gay girl was with the group of girls I stayed with and she saw the ploy a ways off because it's all female wingmans then.

With my complete and utter lack of personality and social skills, I wasn't so much a Wingman as an "ugly friend", to invite favorable comparison.
