My first date went a little like this: It was a trick, it was a trick
The above title is to be sung to the tune of that First Kiss song that K$sha features in. I can't remember who sings it.
So.
I AM SO DISTRESSED.
Boys should not be able to trick you into going on dates with him. It should go against guy code or something. It's just vicious. And not nice. And really distressing.
So, yesterday I was asked to go to the movies. I agreed because I really wanted to see the movie, which was The Mechanic. I didn't really think anything of it. I mean, we're friends and everyone knows I adore Jason Statham.
I guess the first flag should have been raised when I left work and heard his voice mail. He asked at what time he should pick me up. At the time I didn't think anything of it because I was running ridiculously late and was supposed to have been off work and called him to figure out the details of this outing almost two hours before. (But my boss asked me to do some paper work and I don't know why but I find myself unable to turn down any of my bosses when they ask me to stay longer. Except once but I was ill and and tired and on the verge of exhausted tears so it doesn't count. That's how they got me to come to work tomorrow after school actually...)
Then when we got there, he paid for the tickets. I was distressed and tried to tell the guy not to ring them up together but the guy was a bit of a dick. However, it was the first time I've ever had to show anyone my ID to get into a movie which was kind of cool.
After the movie he asked if I was hungry because I had told him how I hadn't eaten anything all day. Which I still technically haven't bedsides eggs for breakfast and a brownie that comes in a bit later in the story. I said no, because I wasn't and still am not. Which is weird but whatever. So we decided to go to Tim Hortons because that's where we always go when we're with friends. Only usually there is more of us and we have a board game in tow to play.
I paid for his hot chocolate and got myself a brownie to make up for him paying for the tickets. Although I'll admit it wasn't really a fair trade since it was a hell of a lot cheaper than movie tickets on a Sunday night but because of his treachery I no longer feel bad about it.
So he drove me home and stopped really far up my driveway. Which I thought was odd. I said all the usual thank yous and still in the car and then got out. But he then turned off the car and followed me. I wondered if he wanted to come inside, a thought which concerned me terribly because my parents would not have looked too kindly on friends over so late on a Sunday. It was about 11 and they were asleep.
He walked me to my door which was only two feet away and looked at me so expectantly. It's then I realized he had thought it was a date. I panicked. I didn't know what to do. I pointed at the sky and yelled, "Look at that!" in an attempt of distraction. The sky was pretty at the time so it bought me a few moments. But I was too tired from a long day of work and no food to come up with any plan.
So I gave him an awkward hug, made a joke about his height, and then dashed into my house and closed the door.
I feel so tricked. It's awful! My first date will always have the stench of betrayal and deception attached to it
Here are the reasons I've come up with as to why I could never date this boy.
1. He laughed during the sex scene.
2. I've been friends with him for about seven years.
3. I find his best friend more attractive. Not to say he's bad looking or anything of the sort.
4. He talks to his mother about me. I like his mother but... yeah.
5. He gets really creepy when he likes a girl.
6. HE TRICKED ME INTO A DATE.
7. When we're together we only talk about heavy metal, comic books, and action movies because they are his main interests. Granted, we can't talk about my interests because he doesn't like my taste in music and doesn't care for soccer and at least I know enough about his interests to hold a conversation.
8. I don't think he likes sports in general. I'm a soccer enthusiast while also following male figure skating and obsessed with the Olympics. The World Cup and Olympics are two of the most important events EVER.
9. HE TRICKED ME. I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS A DATE.
10. One of my dear friends has always had a bit of a crush on him.
11. I like bad boys. He drives five under.
12. He doesn't like Shakira. Who doesn't like Shakira?
13. He doesn't like foreign films. Which says loads in my opinion.
14. He's kind of awkward like me. Two awkward people should never date.
15. I often get the feeling he just wants a girlfriend just to have a girlfriend.
16. I just don't like him that way.
I don't know how I'm supposed to deal with this. He thinks I knew it was a date I was agreeing to. How do I fix this? I can't even avoid him like I did in the 8th grade when he liked me (in the 9th grade I kind of did the same... He needs to stop liking me so damn much) because I let him borrow all my Guy Richie movies.
At least I looked really good today. That's all I can really say. Except well: FUCK.
This is not going under a cut. I need people to read and share in my pain.
So.
