Sent a drunk message. I need to emigrate

[Whyohwhydididothat]

Fuck sake I’m so annoyed at myself.

I have had one too many wines and I did the thing that you shouldn’t do. I text a guy who I had a brief fling with months ago a really cringy text. I don’t know what came over me, I just started typing and suddenly this absolutely atrociously sentimental nonsense came out and before I knew it I’d pressed send .

I didn’t even like him particularly! He wasn’t my type physically and he was as boring as a sack of spuds. I will be honest and say it’s because we stayed in once daily text contact and I didn’t like that he left my one word reply to his text on read. Weeks ago. I’m aware I sound like a toddler. Being ignored does funny things to me.

Oh sweet Jesus. I should emigrate.

So you fancied an animated Lord, texted his doppelganger soppy stuff, so you now HAVE to go for that drink. It's just too good a story for it to end here.

I agree. Do it do it OP

Aw, it's a shame really, you missed a golden opportunity to drunkenly tell him that he looks like Lord Farquaad.

I don’t think he would have taken being told he was Lord Farquaad’s doppelgänger very well. He cares to much about his appearance, even his pants are designer . He does though. He has the same hairstyle and everything!

I don’t think I want to go back there. He is very nice but in being too nice he also managed to upset me frequently. For instance, he wouldn’t want to let you down so he would say what he thinks you want to hear but then can’t follow through or doesn’t say what he really thinks because he doesn’t want to cause upset but that in itself is upsetting. He also cares about his Instagram and Instagram following way toooo much. He has the same filter on every photo. It’s baffling to me.

I’m basically trying to remind myself of the bad points here!

I can't stand behaviour like this. It isn't nice. It's utterly selfish. People who do this are not doing it to save your feelings. They are doing it to avoid having to feel any discomfort themselves. They can't say 'no' so instead they confuse, frustrate, and string others along, which is ultimately much more hurtful. Then they have the audacity to pretend they are prioritising you. Bollocks.

It's no worse than when I sent a text slagging off my now ex FIL to ex FIL!
I was MORTIFIED 😂

OP,
Funny thread.
Don't give it another thought.
He sounds like a bit of a tit though messing you around.

Block his number.

Thank God mobile's weren't around when I was very young.

I had two friends that went through a spell of "dial a drink" and several times the phone had to be physically wrestled from them after one particular break up.🤣

How we used to laugh the following day.
We used to unplug and hide the phone at a certain point in the evening! 😁

Now you have admitted to fancying Lord Farquaad, I think the only way forward is to change your username to BeauGeste and join the French Foreign Legion (aka only post on Dadsnet and other extremely low traffic areas of the site) until we've all forgotten who you are.

@ilovepixie

I once sent a 'naughty photo' of myself to my boss my mistake!

I also did this. Full on nude shot destined for my boyfriends inbox sent to my manager. Who was a female and also a very good friend. We never once mentioned it 😂

Always always use WhatsApp people

You can delete it from their inbox and the media that went with it too

Can you not go for us and tell him all this?

And then tell us

You can sign off the night "Happy Christmas Farquaad"

Still very very funny
