Going with it

I was in a bar last night when I ran into two friends.
One had two girls all over him, and the other was without any.
I asked the girl-less friend what was going on, why was he alone?

He told me that I just didn't understand the situation. One of these girls was with him.
But that was bullshit.

He needed to prove it to me. He asked if I wanted to see something I would never forget. And all I could say was "of course."

He tapped one girl on the shoulder and she turned around to face him. And as she did that, he leaned in for a kiss. Sadly, she realized what he was trying to do, and quickly turned her head away. All he got was cheek.

I told him afterwards he was right. That was something I'd always remember.

Cheating

I cheated on my running partner today.
She was away for the weekend and the opportunity just came up.
"Hey Mike, do you want to go running?" It felt risque'...wrong, but right all at once.
I thought it over, ignored my conscience, and ended up going...

At first I thought I'd tell my running partner to make her jealous, but the more I thought about it, the more guilty I felt

How would I react if she went running with some other guy?
I would be angry. Distraught.
...I thought we had something special.

So maybe, just this once, I'd keep it to myself.

Breaking up is hard to do

I'm in the library right now, and a couple is breaking up right next to me. It's awkward yet interesting at the same time. I haven't been able to follow the conversation completely, but I'm pretty sure a large part of the argument had to do with skittles.
