So Saturday night, I go to the Modern Life Is War show at the local VFW. I bring with me my "distro" (read as: two crates full of CDs I want to get rid of) and set up on the table closest to the girl taking door money. We get to talking, and somehow it comes out that I work at AP. At this point, a different girl who was sitting nearby perks up and says, "Oh, are you Scott?"
I say yes, and she says, "Oh, you're getting me into Warped Tour for free this Thursday!"
I say, surprised, "I am?"
She says, "Yeah, I'm going as S's guest, and she said you were getting us free tickets."
"What's your name?" I ask.
"Erin T," she says.
Backstory:
My friend S asked me a while ago if I could get her tickets to Cleveland Warped. Since AP has a guestlist for every single show, I said no problem. She then got involved in this huge quagmire (giggity giggity giggity!) about who she was bringing. She first tells me she was bringing some girl named Erin T as her guest. Whatever, I don't care who she brings, I don't know either of them. Then, a few days later, she starts seing some dude named Rich, and thus, the "Well, maybe I'll bring him instead" talk starts. She reasons some way to dump Erin T and take him. I still don't care. The only key thing here is, she has yet to tell Erin T that she is no longer taking her, and Warped was (as of Saturday night) five days away.
Back to the show:
I text S, saying, "Your friend Erin is here, and she still thinks she's going to Warped with you."
Her reply: "Awesome"
I reply with, "You need to tell her that you're not taking her, otherwise I'll have to..."
Her reply: "K"
She's obviously blowing me off, and I am currently hitting it off with these two girls and their friends at the show, and I feel guilty knowing information she doesn't. So I tell Erin that S told me that she was taking her boyfriend to Warped instead. Erin is slightly bummed, but seems to get over it and we all keep talking and making friends.
Cut to this morning, about 15 minutes ago:
I wake up as I get a text message from S, saying, (verbatim) "Take ur waped tour tickets and shove them up ur ass that text on sat was so typical go try and create drama elsewhere hope it feeds ur ego"
What the fuck? So I call her and briefly have it out with her about how she's basically crazy and I wasn't trying to cause drama, I was trying to diffuse the situation as best I could before it blew up in anyone's face. Then she goes on this whole thing about how she doesn't "need any handouts from me" and blah blah blah typical broad-shoulders posturing bullshit, and I just hang up the phone on her.
Then I came here and typed this up.
Was I in the wrong with any of this?
