Just got out of Mexican jail

Thats a groaner, even by Tea's standards!

I'll live.

after getting out of the ER I spend the rest of that day and the entirety of the next day bedridden in the hotel. The day after that I manage to go snorkeling. That was a good day albeit I still feel pretty shit. I fly home on Friday.

I get to my apartment at 6 and I'm completely shot but I head out the door almost immediately to meet Zoe and her oldest childhood friend cause zoe is about to leave for two weeks and I fancy her. We're at a bar and in walks another girl I'm seeing, Jessica. I do not handle this situation well. Jessica is not pleased. Zoe and I have what is essentially our first fight in front of her oldest childhood friend who I just met two hours ago. A friend of my ex wife who I guess is friends with both Zoe AND Jessica comes over to twist the knife. Things are eventually resolved.

I wanted to leave early that night but don't feel I can go on a sour note so I head back to Zoe's to hang out for a bit and don't get out of there until 5 am. For those keeping score that's essentially my 3rd all nighter of the past 6 days. I get maybe two hours of sleep. I'm woken up by two 'hey we need to talk cause your in trouble' texts from Zoe and my ex wife. I spend the entirety of that day having high intensity emotional conversations with those two. Both conversations go really well all things considered. I'm getting officially divorced sometime in the early next year.

I wake up today with a ruthless cold. Presumably my body is giving out from the stress.

Sounds like you're playing with fire mate.

 

[Mr. Tea]

Not a lot of money. You'll live.

He wouldn't even have lost it if he didn't peso little attention to what he was doing.

 

[Mr. Tea]

@line b Is any of these assorted Jessicas and Zoes the reason why you're divorced in the first place?

 

[line b]

No. She actually cheated on me is why. And I'm a very nice guy and very forward about intentions I wasn't playing anyone. there was just an initial misunderstanding made doubly tense by the awkward situation but I'm cool with both Zoe and Jessica still.

 

[line b]

I'm cooling it with the dating for a bit I think. Ive had my come to Jesus moment. If I have to send another quasi break up text or disappoint another person who maybe wants more from me than I do them I'm going to lose my mind. Plus I'll be drinking less for it. So I'm no longer seeing Jessica. Which is a shame cause she's very cool and gorgeous. I saw a picture of her on instagram that made me want to throw my phone through the wall.

 

[line b]

It's not 'tough' seeing ppl as a guy like me but it is an odd dilemma where I'm not good looking and I really only have like 4 friends here so if I want to date I have to pursue someone and pluck them out of the orbit of their own life and drag them into mine which is a bit contradictory to the low-commitment-freshly-divorced dating ethos I have. And I'm a bit of an odd guy I think so that either repulses women (I regularly scare them on the train) or fully infatuates them and nothing in between.

Not complaining, I just wish I had a little of what Gus has. Classic American charisma (completely fabricated but I guess they don't notice) and good looks. Remember when he was living in that flop house eating old dirt and women were begging to platonically share his bed? Not for sex, as friends. he's just that inspiring of trust and easy to be around. They walk right into his web.

 

[luka]

Which is weird cos we can immediately see he's a shark like sociopath with no human emotions

 

[Mr. Tea]

No. She actually cheated on me is why.

Sounds like she never deserved you in the first place, king.

I didn't mean that you were playing anyone, just that you were risking trouble but fair enough. And I can't really lecture anyone on this kind of thing... plus I think I'm swearing off women forever. Honestly when I look back over my life and all the gfs etc and think of all the horrible bits I'm not at all convinced that the good bits were good or frequent enough to be worth the trouble.

Really? Only met him a few times but I had a completely different impression of him.

I wouldn't make to many decisions based off the last one you described tbf

 

[line b]

I've only been hit by one woman, attacked really, left bruises and everything, and she was also insane. Leagues more insane than anyone else I've ever been involved with so not really indicative of a pattern.

Are you not still with the last woman, the one where you were semi-recently posting the pics?

 

[IdleRich]

Another one went for me with a knife, I locked myself in the bedroom and she got a hammer and started trying to smash through the door. I know I am annoying but... really?

 

[line b]

Sounds like you've got more of a drug problem than a woman problem

 

[IdleRich]

Nah don't even know where she is. Was a lot of fun at first but yeah she was nuts. The amount of people I get coming up to me saying "Are you still with? No? Oh well she fucking crazy!"

 

[IdleRich]

Well maybe but there were no drugs involved in that incident, that girl just had a really really bad temper and she would go from 0 to 100 in no seconds flat.
