“I couldn’t shake this poor boy”

manners

After only a few weeks of dating, I agreed begrudgingly to accompany him to his best friend’s wedding, where he was Best Man. After being ignored all afternoon, I rejoiced in meeting a sweet, in-the-closet, spotty teenager who was a competitive ballroom roller skater with fabulous outfits. Too bad he rejoiced in meeting me, too. I couldn’t shake this poor boy. He literally followed me wherever I went, while my date smoked cigarettes with his friends. I finally told my date, “If you leave me alone with that kid one more time, I’m breaking up with you.”

Aftermath: That’s exactly what happened.

    Believe it or not, when your date is in someone else’s wedding, the entire night isn’t about you.

    How did you know he was “in the closet”? Maybe he was a straight guy with gay hobbies who desperately wanted a woman’s acceptance. I’m just sayin’.
