There's this girl (duh) that I've been running into at the bar lately. I've known her somewhat for years (I'm friends with one of her ex's, and oddly enough he's been trying to get the two of us to hook up, along with everybody else I know, kinda like it's a matter of fate or some nonsense that we be together), but only recently have I felt any attraction towards her. She always did some light flirting in the past, but I never paid any mind to it.
The last few weeks things got taken up a few notches. Needless to say, I've been handling things on my end, but there's a hurdle that's been thrown in my way. For the last three weeks she's been seeing this douchebag, and he always shows up to ruin the fun. Not that this actually stops her, but it does hinder me a bit.
Last night she told me like it is. She told me that she's sexually frustrated, doesn't think he's her type, questions her taste in men, can't stand how he brags about his drug hookups, he did acid around his kid over the weekend, he's living with his kid's mother, blah blah blah. I just sat there and said nothing. She also kept rubbing her arse against me the entire night, which was quite nice.
By last call she looked a bit upset about something, douchebag was sitting there sipping his cheap beer, and I took off to follow my friends to another bar. As I left I said bye to her friends, gave her a hug (she didn't seem to want to let go), and ignored the tool sitting across from her.
Not so bad, but here's where I fumbled the ball. When I got to my destination I decided I should call her, as there was something I had on my mind. Being that the bar was loud and stepping outside for more than 30 seconds is suicide around here, I made the unfortunate mistake of using a text message. D'oh. Such is the burden of an intoxicated mind.
This went as follows:
evoke: If you're that frustrated, you can always stop by my house
her: UR sweet, I'll have to think about it, hehe (yes, I realize that this is a no, at least for the time being)
evoke: Yeah, you do that, talk to you later
What the hell should I do? It's not like I can avoid seeing her, as she's usually at this particular bar on the same nights as I am. I know that as soon as she gets one drink in her she'll be staring into my eyes and grabbing me. Then Cloud Strife (I hate spikey hair on adults) will show up and pull a block.
Should I call her up next week and ask her to go somewhere alone? Should I go back to acting absolutely indifferant to her the way I used to, and watch her be taken by lesser men? Maybe I'll just stop drinking for a while.
