Text in the City

teen-texting-500-21

I met this cute, aspiring fashion photographer at a bar and after a lot of text messages, Gchats and emails we finally decided to make plans to meet up over the weekend. I was at my neighborhood watering hole for a birthday party and he agreed to meet me there for a few drinks. I hadn’t been boozing much the month or two leading up to this evening as I was busy with a new job. So even though I had only had a few cocktails I somehow crossed that point of no return right as he arrived at the bar. We went to grab a seat and I completely missed the stool and began to face plant onto the floor. Luckily, a girlfriend caught me before I hit the ground. I’m sure I was no fun conversation-wise and after he decided to go home I thought it would be a good idea to keep leaving him incoherent voicemails and send texts telling him to please come back to the bar. After that I passed out. Of course he never called me again and who could blame him?

I admit that I’ve done the same thing more than once myself…!

Hey, at least you realized you screwed up. It happens to all of us.

You mean, people don’t call you back when you get shitfaced and faceplant on your first date? WHY HAS NOONE TOLD ME RUDE AND LEWD BEHAVIOR GOES UNREWARDED?!? Seriously, try self control next time.

Reaper,

I think most people here post these dates about themselves because they are embarrassed they were so stupid; not an iota of verbage suggests she was proud and it all suggests that she was the bad date. Learn some self control on judgment and capslock or you might come off as a bitter idiot who chose all the wrong women.

No worries – it happens! Don’t feel bad about it – at least you have a funny story to tell. In fact, this would have made a great episode of Seinfeld.
