Send to a Friend
What would you have done in this somewhat awkward situation?
This weekend, as some of you know, I attended my first ever Star Trek convention. It was beyond awesome, but that’s a story for another question. Since I was a “preferred” member meaning I paid a buttload more for my ticket than other people I had an assigned seat close to the front of the auditorium so I could be closer to the action and so I could get autographs sooner. I made friends with the guys sitting next to me, in seats L14 and L15 I was sitting in L13.
When I was going to leave, I commented to one of these guys that it was far different from a gaming convention in that not only were there nearly as many women there as men, but also in that I did not get hit on once. In response, this guy said, “Well, I know you said no one hit on you, but I had a lot of fun this weekend and if your relationship situation changes, give me a call.”
A few pertinent facts:
1. I am 22.
2. He is 33.
3. I have a boyfriend of almost 3 years.
4. He has a girlfriend of over a year.
5. These are all known by both of us.
When he said that to me, I plastered a stupid smile on my face and said that I hoped his relationship status didn’t change and his response was, “Well…”
So, I am curious, what would my fellow Jellies have done in this situation?
Just so it’s clear, I’m not really looking for advice. He’s texted me once since and I didn’t respond. I’m just curious about how others have/would handle this kind of thing.
