Last night after work I did a little shopping, then stopped at the local restaurant for dinner sitting at the bar. It's one of those local places with all regulars, so I feel pretty comfortable going in there alone.
After I park myself on a bar stool, I notice the Irish Guy to my left, a woman Jules on his left, and an older guy on her left. Vanessa the bartender is working...LOVE HER! I order my beer, decide on dinner and sit back to watch the Sox kick some Yankees butt.
I'm chatting it up with the crowd to my left, talking sports and having fun. In walks this big burly man... we'll call him Michael as in the size of Michael Clark Dunkin!!! He's HUGE!!!! But Irish guy yells out HI and Michael knows Vanessa, the bartender, so all is good.
At this point, a much older man is sitting on my right, and Michael is on his right. Micheal buys Irish guy a margarita for Cinco de Mayo, then buys me my next Coors light. (I tried to argue, but really, is it worth the effort for a $3.50 beer?)
So I start chatting with Michael as we are watching sports. He works for the Boston Garden, helping to switch from Ice to the floor between Celtics and Bruins games... pretty cool. I told him that for Thursday night, I'll be flicking, the Celtics, Bruins and Sox are all playing at the same time!! (quick side note... watching all 3 as I'm writing this, and all 3 are currently winning! GO BOSTON!)
The the old guy between us leaves.
Michael says, "Would you be interested in going to the game tomorrow night?"
I said, "Yeah, I'd be interested, who wouldn't!"
He said, "No really, I work there, would you want 2 tickets to the Celtics game? I can get them."
I said, "yeah, twist my arm!"
So, I give Michael my phone number so he call me on Thursday about getting me the 2 tickets. Then he says we can meet up at a bar across the street after the game.
At that point I realize I'd have to bring one of my friends, and not a guy... just wouldn't feel cool bring a date to meet the guy who just GAVE me 2 ticket, ya know?
We keep on chatting, then I get my least favorite question thrown at me, "why are you single?" And I give the standard response... I don't want to settle, I'm not going to be with someone just to be with someone, I don't need to be in relationship, if I'm with someone it's because I WANT to be with someone not because I HAVE to be in a relationship... blah blah blah.
(this is where the conversation starts to go downhill pretty quickly)
He says back to me, "Yeah, I'm not looking for a relationship either... So, do you want to have sex?"
Me, "Um, What?"
Him, "I'm honest. I don't need a relationship. Do you want to have sex? I like you."
Me, "What?"
Him, "Well, what are you looking for?"
Me, "Um, I don't know. I'm not looking for just that. If I want just that I can have just that."
(this is where the conversation is no longer going downhill... it has just fallen off a cliff!)
Him... as he's staring at my feet in my flip flops and not only licking his lips, his tongue is so big, he's licking half his face... "I'm a foot man"
EEEEWWWWWEEEEE!!!!!
SO... How did YOU spend YOUR Cinco de Mayo?
