After a few days of texting, Josie was asked out by said mystery man.
Being a man of mystery, he asked to meet her off Patrick Street where he guided her to a pub. Sitting in a snug, Josie had just got the first round in when the creep decided to seduce her… by dropping a hand.
Forget conversation, wit or any attempts at getting to know her, a grope in the dark was a much more appealing option. Or at least to him it was.
Josie, who is strictly non-PDA/ non-groping in the dark, wasn’t loving her predatory date in broad daylight of a Friday evening.
Downing her glass of wine and clocking the fastest way to make an exit, Josie started making excuses to leave. How would she be able to leave without offending anyone?
It was then that Josie came up with the genius plan.
Excusing herself, she stood up to leave and explained she had to run to an engagement party with the girls.
His reply?
“Can I come too?”
Josie started getting visions of a stage five clinger and waving goodbye, mouthed something about being ‘girls-only’ before jumping in a taxi.
When he text her later that evening, she was sure to reply to say thank you. And good luck.
Under no circumstances was he to believe that there was an option for round two… or at least that’s what you’d imagine.
When he kept texting her, relentlessly, Josie couldn’t understand how he wasn’t getting the picture.
She wasn’t responding and he wasn’t getting the message so she decided to man up and let him down gently… in her usual lovely Josie way.
What she wasn’t expecting was the least gentlemanly response ever:
“Well, do you just want to be lovefriends?”
It was the first time we had heard this interesting choice of phrase but she wasn’t in doubt of his intentions for long as he decided to sweeten the offer with some picture texts… of sample positions.
Our favourite part of the story?
When Josie ran into him at an event a couple of months later, he decided to walk up to her… to tell her how rude she’d been.
Josie, thankfully, is now dating a man who is worthy of her and he also likes to wait until they’re in the bedroom before he tries it on.Explore more on these topics:
