Weird text. Does she know it's her I like? [blush]

I very recently came out as lesbian. I've dated several men in my life but nothing has come of it so it's been so freeing to finally be out and proud! :-D

I really like one of my best female friends. I've always known she wasn't lesbian or bisexual so I've just left it.

I have a few drinks and just started telling her about how there's a woman I do like but she's straight so not interested. Caught myself saying too much and swifty changed the subject.

My friend text me today asking if I was going to tell the female friend I liked that I liked her.

I was mortified that she had remembered but I just replied saying 'oh I was just a bit tipsy last night. It's not big deal. I've already forgotten about it. Looking forward to tonight'.

She replied asking why I wasn't going to tell her how I felt.

Annoyed that she had brought the conversation back I said that the woman is not lesbian, does not feel the same, there's no point carrying this on'.

She replied saying I do not know she isn't lesbian and why don't I just tell her.

I then got annoyed and said I do not want to tell her, so please just leave it. I know she isn't lesbian.

Then she replied saying:

' Ah fair enough but you don't know that do you. Right now she's bored. Right now she's sat here doing spreadsheets. Right now she's drinking coffee. Right now she's eating a salad. Right now she's contemplating getting some water from the dispenser. But she's certainly not straight' See you at 6pm.'

HUH? I've not replied. Mumsnet users please help me. What does that even mean?! She couldn't possibly know it's her. Does she think it' someone she works with? I don't even know any of them.

Not many stories are truly original though... Life is a cliché!

Ahhhh.

And she's obviously the type who doesn't mind you being on your phone a lot on your first special evening together.

I hope this is real because it made me feel all warm inside. Smile

greeneyedlulu · 04/03/2017 21:05

First thread I've seen with so many deleted posts! How offensive do you have be? Lol

OP good luck!!

ToastVacuum · 04/03/2017 21:07
Hmm
SuburbanCrofter · 04/03/2017 21:08

You might all be real, but I'm definitely imaginary

Grin
RedBullBlood · 04/03/2017 21:08

Lol, indeed, greeneyed. Apparently referring to an op's other thread(s) posted under the same is offensive and worthy of deletion.

MiddleClassProblem · 04/03/2017 21:09

Oh no. Just searched the username 😔

This seems so fake not just because of the timings, the fact that you weren't gay a month ago (genuinely interested in advice on your date with a man) or the fact that this got resolved so simply but that whilst you're mean to be with her you're not only posting here but on another thread...

RedBullBlood · 04/03/2017 21:09

same name

Hateloggingin · 04/03/2017 21:11

What did I get deleted for???? I merely quoted one of the ops previous posts, is that deletion worthy? Confused

MiddleClassProblem · 04/03/2017 21:13

Wow there's some crazy reporting on this thread

KillDora · 04/03/2017 21:14

Aw come on it was just nice Grin

I mean it's prett obvious from the op 'I'm just a bored girl, doing spreadsheets etc.'

MilkTwoSugarsThanks · 04/03/2017 21:19

I ASed OP.

Sad
ItShouldHaveBeenJingleJess · 04/03/2017 21:20

So now I have to return to my cynical self, accept that love is as rare as powdered unicorn horn and concentrate on 'working on myself'. Yay - sounds fun.

bloodymaria · 04/03/2017 21:27

Damn you AS function. This is why we can't have nice things Grin

spongebob5 · 04/03/2017 21:34

What is the AS function? It's nice not to be cynical but everything on the OP has happened quite quickly 🤔

LurkingQuietly · 04/03/2017 21:38

Yay! My first deletion!

Ginkypig · 04/03/2017 21:38

I'm really chuffed for you.

Glad it worked out for you.

daisychain01 · 04/03/2017 21:39

Smarties situation is plausible, She was clear in her OP that she has dated men, and that she has only recently decided to come out.

Hotpinkangel19 · 04/03/2017 21:40

Yay!!!!!!! Xx

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 04/03/2017 21:42
