DP went out on saturday. Was drunk with friends. They all started dancing. A woman who was apparently 'quite old' (we're mid twenties) was dancing with them and interested in a friend of theirs. Her and said friend spent most of the eve kissing apparently. Thing is, she supposedly went in for a kiss off of DP and another of the friends from the group when they all left. They were drunk, and it was a peck that his friends witness. She only got him on the cheek (or so he keeps repeating) and kissed his friend on the lips.

I have no problem with that but he spent about 5 minutes trying to justify why it wasn't wrong that she and his friend 'kissed' (even though I didn't say anything about it) and now I feel a bit weird because he was really trying to justify it when I obviously wasn't fussed (when he was relaying the story anyway).

Confused It's probably nothing but he went on about it in such a weird way.

It's nothing isn't it? He was just making sure I didn't hear about it from his friends and get the wrong POV wasn't he? (His friends said he was quick enough to give her a 'cheek' wheras his friend didn't expect it and was 'kissed').

He didn't need to tell me if that's the case, as it's such a tiny non-event!

Sounds like nothing!

I know this sounds ridiculously^ petty.

It's just made me uneasy due to the weird relaying of the story!

Thank you. I think it's probably nothing & feel like a bit of a time waster but needed to ask another adult. (Have spent 2 days with just DS)

Agree with Ehric, he just shouldn't have said anything to you as it was nothing, just forget about it.

I did feel like saying "why are you telling me this? Of course I'm not bothered. Can I get back to my boxset now please"! Grin

Does the other friend have a girlfriend? My guess is that there was significant snogging going on, followed by instant "oh crap, what did I do? Aargh" from the friend. And an attempt to minimise. If everyone knows there were kisses all round at the end, the extent of any particular one will be less remarkable.

They were in a group when they said they were leaving, she went in for a kiss when they hugged and he apparently panicked and felt bad after in case it got back to his GF. DP says it was literally a peck and that he was trying to reassure his friend that everyone saw it was nothing etc.

he then spent 5 minutes telling me how/why it was ok, even though I never said it wasn't and wasn't actually bothered. I was a little like "uhuh...um, is that the end"? Grin

(Not 'the end' as in shut up, that'd be really rude! Shock oops. I meant as in 'is that all')?

(Sorry to anyone reading this that is having much larger problems right now. I'm well aware that this is definitely a class z issue! Just lacking in other outlets/adults to talk to about it...)
