Don't try to be cute...
in front of your friends.
That's a statement that guys often say to their girlfriends/wives/significant others when they do things that out of character to "show off" in front of their girls. Well it seems that guys are catching on to this "being cute" phenomenon as well.
As mentioned in naturalbutterflyy I went to a party yesterday evening in Georgetown that was hosted by my frat brothers. Another frat brother (we'll call him A.S.S.) that I'm cool with (key word cool) called me yesterday asking if I was attending the event, I said yes and asked if he was attending he said he wasn't sure. So I thought that was that end of discussion if I see him cool if not cool. So at the party my phone rang I missed the call saw it was him, didn't realize he had left a message so I called him back. I could tell he was in the car with people by the way he answered the phone, "hey sexy how are you this evening," (that is not the normal 'hey whats up' I usually get), so anyway he says he's heading to another party but was going to swing through where I was later. In my head I was thinking SO WHAT, but I was like okay hung up kept mingling. Then I noticed I had a message it was him talking in some Barry White Midnight Love type of voice talking about "hey baby this is A.S.S. call me back." Baby hmm that's new. So I was telling my best friend and she laughs because she knows him and I are farrr from pet name level.
So I'm doing my thing (dancing, mingling, flirting, etc.) and someone offers to buy me a drink. While I was at the bar my friend tells me my phone rang, it was A.S.S. calling yet again to say he's not sure when he'll be there but if I decide to leave call him and let him know where I am. Okay really why is he playing himself. He knows he is my friend and that's that, we were friends over a year ago when we met and that remains the same.
So I'm sitting on the couch chilling talking to the guy that purchased me the drink and then next thing I feel a kiss on my cheek and hear a "hey baby did you miss me."
What the hell?!?!
Dude who I was talking to on the couch was like oh my bad didn't know you were involved, and I was like I didn't know either lol. So A.S.S. is trying hard to be something he's not and asks "what do you want from the bar you know I got you for whatever you want." I'm thinking where did this come from is his ass really that delusional, he knows he is on a budget. Then he goes on to say "oh never mind do you just want your favorite drink, a cosmo." Umm no negro I haven't drank a Cosmo since '03. Then I saw he was surrounded by his band of friends. Is this negro trying to show off. Is he faking like he's my man? What the hell is going on? So I tell him she'll take a drink and I send my best friend to the bar with him.
I continue to talk to the guy on the couch and then here comes A.S.S. again and he's like "babe I'll see you upstairs on the dance floor." He's still playing himself in front of his crew. My friend J then reports that one of A.S.S.'s friends asked who she was and she said I'm Christen's best friend and he was like oh ok how long have you and A.S.S.'s girl been tight.
Whoa let's push pause real quick. His girl?!?! I'm his homegirl, a girl he chills with once in a blue moon, a girl he calls to help edit some homework but that's the only girl I am.
So I go upstairs I'm mingling and dancing anjoying the libations and I decide to chill and have a seat. So A.S.S. comes over without his friends and is like "hey Christen." Ohh so he's back to normal again since the buddies aren't around. So I proceed to tell him about himself and he goes into an apology and then this long convo on why are we only friends, where do we stand blah blah yawn blah blah blah blah. So I'm like dude since every one thinks we are in this relationship I hate to do this but I'm going have to break up with you cause your attitude sucks (I know I'm an ass lol).
So he leaves me alone his feelings were hurt and I guess he feels that he should try plan B so he's in the corner talking to my bestfriend (who has met him all of three times) trying to get help. So he comes over with some B.S. that I knew she had spoonfed him. So he's pleading his case and so we converse, I listen sort of, then decided I had heard enough for the moment and wanted to keep enjoying the party. So I'm having so much fun I even dance with him an hour and two glasses of c&c later. So we are okay. Not cool.
Fastforward to the end of the party I'm getting ready to leave. He's drunk and standing with another guy (who I have never met or seen a day in my life) so I was hoping I could do a quick wave and proceed to leave. Doesn't work. He calls me over and tells the guy yeah this is my baby, so I'm like don't believe the hype. The guy laughs then A.S.S. introduces me and the guy (who's also a frat brother) to each other, so him and I do a quick hug, exchange info, etc. Then A.S.S. says to him I bet you liked that hug didn't you, you could sit a cup on those and pointed to my breasts. --Yep he really said that even held out his cup like he was going sit it there-- So my bestfriend sees the steam rising and proceeds to pull me away. But noooo I ask him to repeat himself. So he does and then adds some extra comments, which at the moment is jumbled and all I remember hearing was something about me faking on him, sex, breasts and thighs.
So next thing I'm walking down the street to my car and my bestfriend looks at me and says "Wow you really smacked the shyt out of him didn't you. Didn't think you had it in you" (I know smacking wasn't the Christian thing to do, but it was the Christen thing to do at the moment)
So last night I got so many text messages from him I just cut the phone off. Today when I cut it back on 15 new messages. Apologizing in 15 different ways. Sorry just doesn't really work in the situation.
Not only did he play himself royally telling people that I was his girl AND putting on a performance that was so good he should have gotten a Golden Globe or Oscar, but he made himself look dumb. Fortunately for him there were only a few in the area where the slap occured so not a lot of explaining to do on his part. I even sent him a message apologizing for the hit, because alcohol, anger and attitude will make even a young lady such as myself step out of character. But yeah he pretty much got the delete and block today (from phone, email, IM etc).
Moral of the story boys and girls... Don't try to be cute in front of your friends. Never solves anything.
