Friday Night
We went to a bar, that does Karaoke – easy as I love to sing..
I was hit on by 2 men
ONE: Not bad looking, striped shirt guy, he’s moved twice so he could sit closer to our table. – Nikki kept telling me he was looking at me, she kept telling me that he wants me. He see a moment, when Nikki and Brad are up singing and I am alone at table. Guy TWO.. is trying to talk to me and he see’s I need help.. Stripped shirt eyes opening line was that he thought I was an amazing singer. I say thank you.. thought he would just leave,, but he kept talking. So he starts off with
– "I’m gay and that’s my husband"- points towards the other guy he’s with.
Knowing that he was lying and say, "oh really.. you look happy".
He responds with – "yeah he has a small penis, so I think I am going to look for a nice girl instead"
I laugh and am still not sure, why he’s even talking to me.. he has a wedding ring on which I clock… he then tells me that he has a kid, and shows me a photo. I say, cute kid. BUT yet he counties to flirt with me. At this stage he even tells me that he’s married, I say
"Well honey, who isn’t these days, everyone has a wife"
He smiles and asks if I am married.. and I say No..I then say so you are not gay? You have a wife?
So I am totally confused as to why he’s even talking to me. He’s Married, he has a child of which he’s shown me a photo of, and now he’s talking to a girl sitting alone in a bar watching her friends sing,..WHY bother?. He then asks me if he can buy me a drink. I’m not sure what to say, but he awkwardly counties to flirt with me. He makes a bad joke about skinny girls not being able to sing like me, and should he beat them up? He slips in to the conversation that he’s an accountant and just got a huge bonus and his gay lover is really his boss, he waves the guy over.
His Boss refuses to come over to our table and instead glares at me from across the room. Like I am the one who is hitting on his friend, who is married…. not the other way around
Nikki and Brad come back to the table – he then again count to flirt with me. and asks if I want a drink. He goes away and buys one. While he’s at the BAR Nikki keeps telling me, that she knew that he wanted it blah blah.
He returns to the table with my drink – tries again to make small awkward flirting chatter. – He waves his boss over again to the table, but the guy gets up walks past the table saying something like I need to go home, while giving me a look off hatred. In my head I am thinking.. " relax buddy, I know he’s married, drunk and trust me I am not going home with him" – Nikki also see this and she goes oooo the Boss thinks something is going to happen, and he doesn’t want to see the guy cheat on his wife.
SO Stripped shirt guy, turns back to me and looks at me and then starts to talk about his wife! I in turn think to myself. What a shame, he is the type of guy I would like to go out with.. I laugh at a couple more of his jokes, because he clearly has an attack of "I’m married" thoughts and drinking departs the bar.
Watching all this unfold is GUY TWO.. we will call him Sliver hair dude.
Perhaps sliver hair dude thought I was in my 40’s? Because he clearly was in his late 40’s perhaps early 50’s. He has been tapping me on the shoulder all night asking me to to sing a song with him. He suggest obscure duets after obscure duet.. I finally agree on Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty, in hopes he will go away.
But he’s a close drunk – you know the ones who lean so close to you.. He said dirty things to me. that make me cringe… when Brad and Nikki get up to sing he sits by me and asks me if I want to come home with him..thankfully stripped shirt guy walks past at this time
So once Stripped shirt guy leaves.. Sliver hair dude thinks this is time to lean in again and talk about our "duet" I smile and say of course I will still sing with him. I think he gets the message with my Friend Brad, sits besides me and kindly blocks him from leaning in to say more gross OLD man things to me.
Well.. it was a nice night, but still… Old men or Married men..
WELCOME TO MY LIFE!
