    Man, two really good friends broke from our circle broke up around October. The breakup was thanfully amicable and there was no drama.

    Now another common friend has started dating one of them, and has been for the past five weeks. They're not hiding it and he talked to the ex before hand, but man, that seems, way too soon. Specially since all three of them constantly hung out, went on trips together, etc.

    Like if it was me, I couldn't help but wonder how long this had been brewing for.

    Sounds like it kicked off around the holidays, which is a real easy time for minor mutual attractions to turn serious. I wouldn't think anything of it, with two+ months between the breakup and the hookup.

    Just got a phone number from a woman on the bus. Not 100% sure I actually wanted her phone number, pretty sure I was just being a helpful guy who knew the schedules for the transfers she was asking about, but I guess it's flattering.

    There's zero chance of me calling, of course. Sorry, bus lady.

    Ah, sorry, I was super unclear. It's been a consistent personality trait that my ability to appear charming and relaxed is inversely proportionate to my actual interest in displaying those traits.

    I am never more smooth than when I am completely disinterested in someone, whether for romance or friendship or business. So... it was a super brief interaction, but I'm really worried now that I was sending off signals, appearing to invite this phone number, and now she's made an overture that's not going to be received at all how she may have expected. That's an emotionally stressful place to put someone, and if that's how things shook out, I'm going to feel shitty about it.

    Apparently, I've been a giant ass to my last girlfriend. Once we broke up, we remained friends, and occasionally flirted thru texts. I never really thought much about it. She was the first girlfriend I had who had zero hangups about sex, and that sort of thing was actually fun with her.

    So, the other night, I was bored at work, I misread a serious situation she was having with her kid (but in my defense, she really blows stuff with her child way out of proportion) and sent some flirting texts, thinking I was taking her mind off it, and now she blowing up at me saying I've done this constantly and she's not a whore, etc.

    I never would have intentionally made anyone feel that way, and I feel like crap. Honestly, I feel like I can never win with any relationship. Sex seems to have made my life worse in every way.

    Thing is, she says she's mentioned it before, but I do not remember that at all. I would really like to think if I was bothering someone and they told me, that I would stop doing it. Looking back on it, she hasn't responded to some of it, but she did respond to other messages. So... I just feel like a big ol' jerk.

    I view it as a emotional minefield
    Am I willing to take a walk in it?



    Really as someone with No friends at this point I would not try to extort money from them or use them for emotional fun

    Odd the group of women from the other night came into work and thanked me for helping them avoid the creeper and calling him out
    This was the guy who followed them around and asked if they had "Bj lips"
    I really do wonder why people do this as do they really think it's going to get them laid or people find it a sure fire way to talk to women

    Have you explained that too her? Not in an accusatory way mind you.

    Just kind of explain that you honestly don't remember her telling you that (whether she did or didn't is kinda moot) and you weren't coming from a negative place but if it is something that bothers her it won't happen again because you value her friendship.

    Sincerity is generally the best policy in these kind of situations. Well, all situations, really.

    Woo! Got a text back from the girl I made out with at the metal club. Unfortunately she seems like your classic grenade texter, ie, she texts you, then seems to throw the phone away immediately and not respond for like 20 minutes.

    No it's not that, I didn't mean it seriously. Just commenting on how sometimes out of the blue someone messages you, and then when you respond almost immediately they must get busy or distracted. I'm not complaining just a little joke I have with friends. I totally understand people not responding right away in general, just a joke about how i imagine they must throw their phone away like a grenade immediately. Sorry makes more sense amongst friends as I have a friend who does it to us often

    Like with long back and forth convos I get it, it's just funny when someone's like

    "Hey sup?"
    "nothing much you"

    Hour goes by

    Not complaining just being all seinfeldian

    Fair enough, I just hear stories about dating sites where women get a friendly message, then 5 minutes later get an angry followup about how DARE she not reply yet she must be a FRIGID SLUT
