How do these typically end? I assume she will be caught but I doubt the items are still with her.

I’ve in fact had a drink spiked myself, I have no idea why to this day but I was in a club and all of a sudden I couldn’t move or walk but my brain was functioning fine.

Guy brings girl home from bar, gets robbed

https://www.yahoo.com/news/woman-acc...142200013.html

—-excerpt——
Police in Miami are searching for a woman accused of drugging a man she went out on a date with and stealing more than $600,000 in Rolexes and other jewelry from him. Police released surveillance video of the suspect and urged the public to contact them if they recognize her.

According to news release from the Miami Police Department, the man met the woman at a club on May 7 and took her back to his place at around 5:30 a.m. the next morning. The man, who was not identified, said he had a drink with the woman in his apartment and fell asleep.


When the man woke up around noon, he said he noticed his safe was open and the jewelry inside it was gone. So was the woman.

The alleged victim immediately contacted police.

Among the pricey items taken were a Rolex Daytona rainbow watch with diamonds, Sky-Dweller Rolex, a gold chain, Franco gold bracelets, Cartier sunglasses, and a rose gold diamond ring.

Surveillance video from the apartment building shows the woman arriving with the man in an elevator and then leaving the building. When the woman is seen leaving the building, she is seen carrying two Solo cups. Police suspect one of the cups was used to drug the man.

I agree. It can happen to anyone in an instant if you’re not paying attention. I too have been roofied.

I believe the issue here is he brought this woman into his home in a functional state that appears he knows exactly what he is doing. Then, while in his house she spiked his drink. Which is why she took the Dixie cups out with her when she left.

As has been said, I’m sure most of us here understand what his thinking was. It’s unfortunately an expensive lesson for him. Hopefully his mistakes help others on this forum to not replicate them.

Back in my dating years, even disclosing my exact home address to bona fide girlfriends, would be out of the question (until well into the relationship, if ever). Let alone having working ones over. That's what hotel rooms are for

Truth is, for all the times this happens, there are countless instances where folks just go home together for a good time.

I imagine this dude, wealthy as he is, has taken home dozens of girls without incident.

Yes, one must be on guard. But this is the exception. Most times it’s simply a good time.

Yep. He most likely got complacent and let his guard down because he had other intentions on his mind.

How do you propose one prepares for the exception to the rule?

Exchange numbers prior to bringing a stranger home? Don’t bring a stranger home at all? Security cameras inside your home? Don’t decide to open your safe to show off your prized possessions under the guise it will help drop a certain garment off her? Have established security that frisks everyone on entry and exit?

I surmise that 4/5 of the posters here wouldn’t know how they’d handle that woman in that scenario.

I’d have to disagree.

It’s most likely not 80%.

Also, considering the content of the article. It seems guys that keep them in the safe to flex to women they bring home “wouldn’t know how to handle that woman in that scenario.”
