In answer to people who ask if I've ever had awkward situations come out of eating with strangers.
9:33pm: hey zoe, ur nt gonna call me bk? thats messed up...i thought we were kool
9:42pm: i would really like 2 b friends with u...and nt some odd stranger u eat with and then rip apart on ur blog...kind of hard 2 do if u dont call back

Haha stalker, I was pondering taking you out, but man if this is how messed up I'd end up I might reconsider!
ReplyDeleteAre you implying I drove him to this? Haha, I think you'll only end up like him if you start out like him - do you repeatedly put your hand on strictly platonic strangers' knees?
ReplyDeleteonly if you ask nicely.
