But I'm sort of reading an "anger" into this. Everyone uses different words, and we don't all understand one another correctly. Give others a bit of a break on that score--or explore what they really mean--and mysteries start disappearing.

I'm in...This happened to me a couple of years ago!<br /><br />I'm in my office with my boss, who is a female, we're going over some stuff, and she steps out for a minute. Almost as soon as she's gone this cute red-haired girl comes in. <br /><br />At the time I'm 35, and she's like 26. So she asks me, really nervous: "Will you go on a date with me?"<br /><br />This has happened before, so I give her the script. "I'm not available... I'm married and have kids... they live in [name of other town 4 hours away]... blah blah..."<br /><br />She got really upset, red in the face. I clearly wasn't very tactful and I felt terrible. She left in a hurry, and later I learned she left work for the day. My boss came in right after she left, having heard some of this conversation from the hallway. She wanted to fire this girl because she thought it was completely inappropriate and she kept telling me I was being harassed. I had to smooth things over. I think I told her that if she fired the red-haired kid then I'd sue the bank saying my boss had a habit of coming in my office, shutting the door and demanding inappropriate favors. (My boss is something of a comedian so she appreciated this.)<br /><br />So I feel terribly, and I kiss this girl's ass constantly for about two *months* and finally we're friends. <br /><br />Suddenly, we're shooting the shit and she mentions her "boyfriend", then gets all red in the face again, which is her custom.<br /><br />"O, OK, so I was honest with you and you got all pissed off," I laugh, "all the while you weren't available either..."<br /><br />"Well," she stammers, "he's not really my boyfriend, we're just fucking each other..."<br /><br />"You're fucking and you call him your boyfriend... sounds like a boyfriend to me..."<br /><br />Anyway she's grown up a lot since then, and we're still friends. I guess that's the real point here. You have to turn down lots of people for an intimate relationship, but don't jump into an adversarial type thing right away. Most of the nice people who are interested in you will make good friends, even if they aren't your type.<br /><br />Best to you brother...Grégoirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13610633478542798268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890637673678810716.post-56303681744722608462009-05-22T08:46:36.608-07:002009-05-22T08:46:36.608-07:001) No, you should not have gone out with him.

One of my biggest pet-peeves is people with bad grammar... hence my relationship with a newspaper editor ;) - plus, he kind of exploded at you, for no real reason... clearly not the rational type of person you ought to find / deserve.<br /><br />2) Secondly, this post and/or your rejection of him does not make you a mega-sized asshole.<br /><br />3) Not that there's anything wrong with being a mega-sized asshole though!Jonny Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13136586366497757676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890637673678810716.post-31967734475922219562009-05-22T07:35:39.810-07:002009-05-22T07:35:39.810-07:00Agree with BRH above.
