What grinds my gears right now?
[beware of tl;dr]
Good bud of mine who lately got dumped by his now ex-girlfriend is starting to make a big fuss about women.
He's really squeezing out his opportunities, often failing but never losing confidence in himself. That ain't a bad thing, actually that's what I like about him.
But now he's starting to act up. He boasts about his female contacts more and more, and today he crossed the line.
I have a friend that I know since elementary school, we lost contact for a few years and now she found me via Facebook and the likes and we started meeting again, renewing our friendship. Now of course my bud knows her too, since he was in my elementary school class too. So he recently started chatting with her as well. As stated previously he's currently really squeezing out his opportunities, that applies to her, too.
Well, she's pretty annoyed by that, but she won't tell him straight. Still, my bud goes on and on about how he wants to meet her, so she tries to evade the topic and tells him about what she's doing tomorrow.
You'd expect him to realise that he's taking it too far, nope. He lives near the train station, and as she usually takes the train to wherever she's going she told him about that too.
Quick switch to my perspective: Not long ago, while still chatting with her, my bud messaged me, telling me about her and how they're going to meet up tomorrow. I don't know of the whole situation yet, so I congratulate him.
At the same time I start chatting with her, and she tells me she's currently messaging with my bud. Out of curiosity I ask about that date tomorrow, but she doesn't know anything about any date. So I tell her what my bud said, and she says she's never told him anything about a date or something like that.
Turns out my bud made up that whole situation after being told by her that she's frequenting the train station, smelling the opportunity to catch her after hopping off the train.
Just to boast about it.
Now I don't know what that sounds like to you (the people that actually read the whole post), but I think it's pretty 🤬 pathetic.
Sorry if this seems really unorganized, but I needed that steam vent quickly.
See you around,
