Just so you all know, I UNDERSTAND my friend's need to stick up
for his woman. That's all well and good and even though i was mad at the
time, i don't fault him for that. What i fault him for was first,
putting me on three way and asking me those bullshit questions about if i
would ever date him, just to prove to his chic that we were just
friends and secondly, allowing her to pick up the phone to call me and then giving her my number to continue texting me from her phone. That
never should have taken place. If she didn't call me, i wouldn't have
had the reason or opportunity to refer to her as a bitch. I was minding
my business and along came trouble. If you can't take the heat, stay out
of the kitchen.
With regards to our friendship: Let's just say, calmer heads did
not prevail (with me being the person with the "uncalm" head). I'm old
enough to the point where i KNOW and ACCEPT myself the way i am. Sure i
could work on things and i am, but i'm still going to be me. If you think things could have been handled in an un-emotional, non-dramatic way, that's all well and good and i 100% agree with you. Handle it that way when it happens to you. That's what makes you, you and me, me. I can only be myself. Besides, hind sight is 20-20. It's always easy to talk about how things should have been handled after the fact.
I called
him because i value our friendship and while trying to tell him that i
might have reacted differently if i wasn't caught off guard, he cuts me
off and said he doesn't care about how i react to things and that i owe
him an apology for referring to his fiancee as a bitch unless he didn't see the need to be friends with me anymore. I don't do well with ultimatums
especially when i'm still pissed at both of them for the stunt they
pulled with me. I've never been one to have a problem apologizing when
i'm wrong, but don't give me an ultimatum when your hands are not clean.
While i will leave out a lot of details, let's just say he got an
apology but not the one he wanted. I apologized for many things
including the fact that i referred to his fiancee as a bitch when i
should have called her a jealous bitch to her face etc etc. I feel like
our friendship would have ended anyway because of the type of chic his
fiancee is. She is very jealous and she has never been comfortable with
me as his friend or any female for that matter and like i told him, if
it wasn't this non-issue, she would have come up with something else
eventually to be mad at. I don't have time for that kind of nonsense. I
value his friendship but not enough to put up with his jealous
girlfriend especially since i don't think he can handle her. Just because she is his fiancee doesn't give her free rein to run roughshod over his friends and then expect everyone to treat her with kid gloves. Both of them have lost their minds. I never should have been involved in this mess, so forgive me if i don't just roll over quietly and take it.
I know i get irritated easily which is why i stay away from people and their drama and only deal with a few people on a regular basis. I do my best to minimize any opportunities for me to lose my temper and this is the first time this year, believe it or not that i have been this mad.
I don't think any female should contact her guy's female friends or acquaintances for any reason. The guy is not a puppet, he can speak for himself.
