I've just found out that a girl I made a fool of myself with, sleazily asking her if she liked me and implying a bit of smoochie-schmoo (I was drunk), is coming to the same tiny island I'm going to camp on!!! When I would have preffered ignore her existence! Bumflaps! Anyway, I'm going to have to deal with this in cold daylight, inescapably as we have mutual friends. Oh Beejaysus! Anyone have ANY experience with this kind of thing? Its just, I wasnt myself when I asked her, I was under pressure, my mind was muddled up, and I had inebriated myself. I was a mess basicly, and I'm not a sleazy jerk of a guy. I think I'm on a collision course with embarassement, and having to face past stupidity I'd rather forgive and forget. Stupid taking responsibility for one's actions! Can anyone help in any way?
Maybe if I forgive myself completely, then her input really wont matter. Then I'm free to just treat her nicely, and friendlyly, as I would anyone else, and just let lie the whole matter.
Well, I guess that it was your day to be a jackass. I would act normal and politly when in the company of others. Sometime soon, take her aside and appologize. By take her aside, I mean that you should be able to talk without being heard by others, but near other people so she doesn't feel threatened by being alone with you.
Yeah, its a difficult one to apologise for and I dont really know her at all. I'm hoping we can just forget it, I've forgiven myself, I understand why I was being a jerk ( because I felt a lot of pressure from myself to "score" a girl, also being a generally muddled up teenager, it was six months ago. ). I've got over that, I'm being myself again and I think I'll just let it lie.
I'm back from my trip, and it went fine. I was real edgy and uncomfortable when she arrived, but I went on a walk to get money from my tent and I says to myself..."Forgive yourself." And I did. And I felt perfectly myself. I mean whats the use in wrecking your buzz when you dont have any beef with yourself over it, instead just forgive yourself, have fun, and everybody's happy, including the girl. Thanks hipforums for helping me work that one out! By the way we had the best weekend ever.
