A rant

Post by docellis »

In the last two days:

1. Two guys asked me out. I like both guys just fine but I have NO interest in dating either one.
-----One of them bragged to someone we both know that he "had a date" with me and was saying things like "I'm the man!". I didn't agree to a date with him...Earlier that day he tricked me into not refusing to go out with him. Leading questions, then summing it up with "so then we'll do that on Friday!" and I was thinking - I'll just avoid him on Friday. Well, he goes and starts telling people (maybe people who I WOULD go out with) that he has a date with me. And it gets back to me. This sucks.
-----Other guy flirts with everything that moves so I just keep saying "I know you're just kidding around" hoping that will be enough to keep him from going any further. But it doesn't. He asks me out. I say ha ha and change the subject. This is kind of tiring but I don't want to deal with it so I keep doing it.

Both are guys that I will not be able to avoid unless I change a few things in my life pretty drastically.

2. I ran out of gas today for the first time since I was a teenager. It sucked. Bad. I just spaced. Didn't notice my gas guage until it was too late. I cried while I walked to the closest gas station. :(

I hadn't had a rant in a while so I thought I would share.

It could be worse.

You could have been asked out by conservative radio host Bill Cunningham.

Or even Michael Moore.

Or Bill Maher, perhaps.

You would rather be alone than with the wrong person, even if it means there is no one to help you when you need it. Also, you misspelled gauge.

Yep. You caught it. (both things I guess)

My first wife was insecure, didn't like me working a lot, we split up after two years. My second wife is strong willed and independent and we've butted heads for 26 1/2 years.

You probably got married (the second time) about the same time we did.

Reading Doc's rant makes me glad I'm not single.

Well this is just about the dumbest list ever, and I'm not sure if the people described actually exist, but it seemed fitting for this thread:
