The conversation takes place in a Mexican resturant between my friend and a really hot waitress:
Waitress: Would you like another beer?
Friend: No, I'm not supposed to be having this one.
Waitress: Why not?
Friend: I'm an alcoholic.
Waitress: Really?
Friend: Yes, I have one of those breathlyzers (sp?) installed in my car that you have to blow into before the car will start. Would you like to come out to my car and blow into it?
She stands there a little puzzled and I take the opprotunity to snap off a wisecrack and head to the register.
Now, this friend was trying to flirt with the waitress and what makes this weird, IMO, is he has a lot of female friends. From what he tells me most of his friendships start out this way, apparently he flirts, runs it right up to the point where something may happen and then puts them into the friend zone. Until I witnessed this I had never seen him in action from the start, any of his female friends I've been introduced to were already befriended.
While I was listening to this I was asking myself "do these women really go for this crap?"
FYI: He is not an alcoholic, and the reason the girls get shuffled to the friend zone is he is married with two kids.

This kind of guy (or woman if the case may be) seems to work hard to reel them in then holds them at a short distance when they respond. One of these days he's going to lose at his own game and end up reeling too far. It always happens.
Or, rather, that's how it usually starts out and happens.

Ok, CD ladies what's your take on the matter?
After he said he was an alcoholic, I would have said "oh, okay" and gone on my merry way. Actually, once he said he wasn't supposed to have another one I probably would have said okay and been done with it.
I dunno, if he's reeled girls into his harem by using that, I suppose it works on some.....

I agree. I expect that 'I was talking to this girl one day and......' conversation one day.
Told him he was a tease once, how he plays a girl up then when it gets too hot he runs and hides behind his marriage.
Agree to act as an accomplice in committing perhaps a misdemeanor or a felony, depending on the state (blowing into a breathalyzer device in someone else's car), particularly for a man she just met;
Be his friend after he told her this wasn't really the case;
Be his friend after he told her he was actually married?
It must be slim pickings for the women in that town, I guess.

Hi WFW&P,
He likes the chase but cannot put them in the bag being married. I did that every now so I did not completely lose touch. I did not want a girl friend and I was not a trying to sleep with anyone.
The reason it works is because flirting takes social skills, timing and humor and shows someone is interested.
