[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was inappropriate for her to go out with him, OP, whether she brought along a friend or not. There were so many easy ways to get out of it. If she was bringing a single friend, why wouldn't she invite you to come as well, making it a double date?[/quote]

Agree. I totally understand the need for her to handle random men's feelings gently, but there were lots of other ways to handle it. And, also, if I were the guy I would be annoyed that I sort of asked someone out and then she showed up and tried to pull a switch-a-roo with a single friend. A better way would have been for her to say "I would to talk about dating. My current boyfriend and I were planning to get together with a single girlfriend of mine later this week; why don't you join us and we can all share experiences." Then he could have declined or agreed, knowing fully well what he was getting into.

The real question is what this means for the future. I don't think it's wrong for you to say "When stuff like this comes up again in the future, here is how I prefer you handle it." and see what she says. It seems weird to me that she wouldn't be open to a discussion about it unless she really wants the freedom to keep testing the waters with these date-but-not-dates.[/quote]
