you try to be nice......
People always say, when you reject someone's offer of a drink, you try to be nice.....but at what point do you day, enough, you drunken asshole, I know you're kinda simple but can't you get it through your thick hide that I AM NOT INTERESTED!?!
I'm here at the Legenda in Subic with friends and family, we thought that it would be relatively deserted because hello, beach town in the rainy season, and the military exercises over and done with.....nothing against Americans, or men in general, but I really don't like staying here when the soldiers are free to roam around, because sad to say, poverty has forced a lot of Filipinas into selling themselves.....
Last night, as I was in the farthest corner of the lobby, as far away from the bar as I could get, setting up my notebook for a netmeeting (the wi-fi signal was so weak in our room, it was almost unusable) with a friend who migrated to the US, wearing an aquamarine, long-sleeved blouse, white lace undershirt, beige cargo pants, white flipflops, no make-up, not making eye contact with anyone, I got hit on by an American soldier who looked like he was in his late 30s or early 40s.
I kept refusing his offer to buy me a drink, and he'd go away for awhile and then offer again...
Since he seemed harmless, if a bit desperate, I stayed where I was, hoping that if I ignored him long enough he'd either pass out or lose interest.
The problem started when one of his subordinates, a guy who looked like he was in his late 20s, came over and started trying to paw me, and I tried to be nice, I swear I did (any disbelieving comments or looks from any you people, and I will kick your ass, I swear I will :P I am capable of being nice, lol, at least once in awhile )
But since it wasn't working, I stood up, deliberately stepping on his toes, "accidentally" slamming my elbow on his nose -he was crouched by my left leg (although he turned his head and I ended up elbowing the side of his lip instead, *smugly* it still hurt, though) and said, "look, I really have a deadline, I've been trying to explain that, in terms you could understand, meaning words of one syllable, so why don't you find someone who you can pay enough to be interested?"
I stormed out, of course, but my rather dramatic exit was spoiled because I had to wait for the elevator, lol.
When I got to the room, Zee, a friend from dlsu, actually laughed at me, she said, I should have accepted the drink, then left, I'm not a prude, but yes I must admit, I am slightly short-tempered, so to those men who are self-proclaimed "pushy bastards", if you want us to be nicer to you when we reject your offers, maybe you should think about accepting that rejection, and walking away, while you still have your dignity.....
