I had another: “This could only happen to Melissa” Moment Friday night:
I got into work at Corky and my coworker told me she had a story for me, that was ABOUT me! My stomach dropped and I said, “what?” warily.
She proceeded to tell me that a woman who is a regular at Corky popped in about a half hour earlier to buy a bottle of booze she likes off of us. She then told my coworker that she was on a date but that her date wouldn’t come into the studio because “he had gone out on a date with Melissa before.”
…
Yup. If you’re new here, that makes 2 guys in 3 weeks that I have gone out on dates with in the past that have stopped in or have come to class at the studio.
My coworker asked what his name was, and she told her. She tried to think of his nickname, but couldn’t. The woman said that we had gone out a few months ago. My coworker said that I had been dating someone the past few months (ex man friend) and so it had to be before that. And the woman said that we had gone out once. This is all true. Expect that this guy (whom I called Blender B, cuz he blends all his food together when he eats at home) gave me the creep out vibe. I went out with him once in July and I stress-sweated the entire 2 days before the date, and during the whole date. Ugh.
Blender B. came in for a minute and my coworker was not impressed. She told them we had a few open spots if they wanted to paint that night. He did not want to, and they left. She laughed and told me the story when I arrived 20 minutes later.
I seriously think it’s time I contemplated moving out of the state. It is clearly not safe for me here any longer. In the past 2 months I have run into 3 guys I have dated, 1 of them while I was hanging out with ex man friend! 2 in Lincoln and 1 in Omaha. I’m done.
This would happen to me!
