So I was talking to this guy online last night. I told him I had been invited to four parties tomorrow, 2 I'm going to for sure, which are in Ann Arbor. I told him that one is friend's housewarming, and another is small high school reunion type party. He said that I needed a date and he would go with me. I declined. I've never met this guy in real life and I wanted to hang out with old friends and not deal with first date bullshit too. I don't think he was happy. I feel slightly guilty. These are some of my hypothesis for why:
1. I should never turn down a date because I'm desparate.
2. I don't really like the guy. One time we talked and he went off on how he'll ignore people if they pronounce his name incorrectly, which annoyed me.
3. It was a really bad time to get togther, he should have known that, and he put me in an awkward situation.
Later I talked to someone else online, who I have never met in person either. He's a friend of a friend. He has to work tomorrow night. I realized that I kind of wanted him to come with me. Even though it's almost the exact same situation, I didn't care.
So, I'm concluding that I shouldn't feel guilty. I did the best I could. And it was the person, not the circumstances.
