ladies night, and strip clubs

hello and happy thursday! a few years ago, thursdays were my most favorite day of the week. only one more day until friday, AND it is ladies night here in t-town. oh yes, i used to be quite the social butterfly. every week, you could find my friends and i out on the town on any given day of the week..... but thursdays were by far my favorites. there was, on more than one occasion, at time when i would be dancing and thinking "i'll NEVER get tired of this!"

my, how times have changed. i've gone from staying out til 2am at least 3 nights a week, to maybe grabbing happy hour once a week and being home by 7. lol.

anyway, met a group of girl friends last night for happy hour, and an interesting scenario came up -- i'd like your opinions, simply out of curiosity. here's the situation:

one of the gals has been seeing this guy for about a month. they have decided to date excusively and things have been going great. yesterday, she called and he didn't answer but then quickly sent a text message reading "we're at *insert strip bar here* having lunch. will call you after lunch." over 4 hours later, he calls and is surprised that she is a bit irritated. she rarely calls HIM, and was just wanting to verify plans for her to drive up to have dinner that night. (they live in different cities.)

we all had different opinions and advice to give. i justified her irritation by saying that no matter what your issue is, there is one thing in that scenario that would piss any girl off. being a girl who doesn't have issues with strip clubs, i would not be offended by the location ... but my source of irritation would be that he said he'd call after lunch and it took him 4 hours to do it. if he had said, "i'll call you later" it's totally different. but he could've walked outside, called and been like yeah, we're gonna hang out for a while.... did you need something?

anyway .... how would you handle things? boys..... would you have done anything differently?
