I am an asshole.
Got into a fight with a former co-worker/friend. I feel bad, because we both got laid off at the same time almost six months ago. She was my sort of work wife, and we got along great in a work environment . But I'm not the kinda guy who builds lasting relationships at work. When I'm at work I socialize as much as I have to with my co-workers but beyond that, I'd much rather leave work at work.
I'm notoriously bad at returning phone calls...or answering phone calls for that matter. Needless to say she calls me, I don't call her. I know, I know, I am an asshole. needless to say, when we spoke this afternoon, she wanted to meet for dinner and catch up. I told her that I wasn't interested in having dinner together. I told her that maybe we could go out another time. She got mad at me saying that I always dodge her calls and requests to go out (she is not wrong ) ad that I am not really her friend. After that she rushed to get of the phone with me.
The girl has a boyfriend. The way she is barking at me to take her out, you'd think that I was a bad boyfriend that refuses to take his girlfriend out. Not me. I am a GREAT boyfriend. ( I am currently single, but even so I am proud of that fact, that I give my all in my relationships )
Even so, she ended our phone call. I know she was upset, and I do feel really bad about hurting her feelings, but I really don't have it in me to repair the damage. I think this is the last stop for my work relationship. I think it's best that we part ways.
I know, I know. I am an asshole. Just be grateful that you and I don't work together.
