hand slap: don't name call
so, i go out to dinner last tuesday with this friend I met through this towny bar that me and my roomie are regulars at. honestly, i wanted him to be my bar friend and nothing more, but he asked me to go and I thought it be nice to get to know him (and also make clear that I just wanted to be friends).
to make a long story short, he totally suprised me! I thought I'd get picked up is his hillbilly truck with his shiny belt buckle blinding me (I bet you couldn't tell that he's a country boy...). Any who, he looked like a total cutie and was a gentlemen and we had a fantastic time. Good conver, not awkward, just nice. It was cool because we talked about our history of relationships and most current ex's - we both had been single for about a month. I could tell that he was looking for a relationship, but I explained how I've had this streak of falling for guys fast and figuring out that they weren't right for me...so I wanted to be cautious. And he respected that.
So, the next day...he sends me a text...something like "you were in my mind's eye all day"...of couse I'm like gag me and I respond with "you have three eyes? you should really get that checked out=)"...honestly, it just too early for gushy texts, but it was sweet.
So, it's Thursday softball day, and it's a early game. So me and my girlies go to dinner and drinks and of course end up at our towny bar. And, we run into my bar friend/dinner dude. It's weird because I see him being flirty with one of the off duty bartenders, which doesn't totally bother me, just a little weird. So, time goes by, and the off duty bartender is leavin' and they are both standing behind me and my friend. Then, she kisses him and he says "call me". HOLD UP! Ok, I don't want him to be my boyfriend, but don't send me mushy texts and act like your all into me if you're going to play "call me" with another girl...
Oh, it gets better.
So, my friend was a little mean to him cause she protective (love her). But, I felt bad, so I decide to go explain to him why she was given him the cold shoulder and to call him on his "call me". So I walk over and told him that I saw them kiss and heard him. He explained that his ex was at the bar and the bartender was just trying to make him jealous. So he points her out...
I walk away and of couse check out this chick. And, I'm not totally judgemental, but she's a little gross, definitely bar material. So drinking goes on and so does his talking to his ex, you can tell she's trying to smooth talk him and he's trying to play it cool, but she's definitely winning.
So he's playing pool, and smooth operater me, walks up - tells him basically that he's lame, and add in the jab "honestly, she's kind of white trash..."
BAD MOVE. that didn't go over to well. Not only did I say it once, but my whole table was talking about it, and my friend texted me the next day (after I sincerely tried to text aplogize) told me that I said it to him 3 times and wouldn't let it go. aghh, yeah, did I say bad move. I don't think we'll be talking any time soon.
So lessen learned: don't call people white trash....well actually, don't tell guys that their ex girlfriends are white trash. It seems to offend them (especially when they are not over them). I will say though, I do still think she is kind of white trash.
