I am a woman. I went on a date with a woman on Wednesday. We had a great time, then she told she was going to a party afterwards and did I want to come… I agreed and it was a nice enough evening.
We'd both been drinking since the afternoon so were a little sozzled by the evening.
I will admit it hit me harder than it did her because I hadn’t eaten and I’m not used to spirits - she’s been raised on spirits!
Anyway, I found myself gently swaying at some point, and I lent on her arm for a second, then I excused myself to get some water and fresh air.
When I came back, I bumped into her while we were both mingling in the crowd with others… I said hi and expected to move on, but she seemed to think I had come to fetch her and wanted her to follow me.
I shrugged and thought fine, I was happy to mingle, but equally as happy to chat to her if she wanted… then as we’re passing through people trying to find somewhere to sit, I see her furtively sneaking off trying disappear into the crowd whilst looking at my back I guess to make sure she could hide herself properly…
Our eyes met for an embarrassing moment, I told her to go and enjoy herself and it was time for me to head home, we said our goodbyes.
I have to say I wasn’t very taken with her manners, it’s easy enough to excuse yourself without trying to hide!
Now she has invited me to a festival Sunday, she said she has a spare ticket and really wanted me to come.
Now, just having checked my account, I see I don’t really have much disposable money left until next payday.
Would it be unreasonable for me to cancel now?
I don’t want to spend my last pounds in the company of someone with what might be poor manners… or maybe she was having an off day?
Or am I in the wrong because I’d had a bit to drink and she was right to sneak off and I should give it another go with her?
