So I went to a show with a friend. Flirting exceeded our normal amount of sport flirting. To the point that if she hadn't been on my 'don't kiss' list for the last 2 years for having a boyfriend, I would have dropped a smooch on her. So drunken me invites her to an erotic art show. On the only day I could make it. Which happened to be Valentines day.

Next day I realize that's all sorts of weird. So I call her and rescind that offer, while asking if she'd be up for a more normal date. Her response, "I'll pass." I was not prepared for that answer, and flustered my way to and end of that call. Spend the rest of that day freaking out trying to figure out if I misinterpreted things.

The next day I see her at a get-together, to which she brought the guy she's been dating. At the show she mentioned that she wasn't into him that much, but the get-together was in his neighborhood, so she felt like she had to invite him. And throw him through the friend gauntlet. He was nice enough, but I didn't want to hang out in their date, so I avoided them most of the night. When I was leaving she was disappointed that we didn't talk much.

So I figured she'd give me a call to chat. A few days later I text her about something, and she plays it off like I'm bugging her.

So now I'm a bit apprehensive about running into her at a get-together on Friday.

tl:dr: whining
