I'm beginning to think I should stop texting when drinking or after drinking. I think I have a tendency to be too open, and pretty easily say the wrong things.
For instance, I was at a small house party with this girl who has a boyfriend, but I'm 90% sure she is into me. Went to leave and she hops into the bed in her second bedroom and forces me to climb in with her to "check it out," and convince me to stay instead of driving home. I made a joke about my bed being bigger and softer (which she knows) and after a little rubbing of her legs and hips say I'd better get going. I'm amazed that she's even being that forward with her boyfriend in the next room, but hey... she can be impulsive.
Anyway, I get about halfway home and get a text from her worrying about me getting home safe. I feel like I should have just let her worry for the night, but here's what actually happened:
2:14 Her: Are you home safely yet? I hope your okay!
2:17 Me: Almost... don't you have better things to be thinking about?
2:18 Her: No
I'm pretty drunk, I gotta sober up! Text me when you get there... so I'm not wondering all night !2:27 Me: You can't be that drunk. I'm home though so you can stop worrying...
2:33 Me: See, I knew it... you stopped worrying already
2:34 Her: NO! I totally read that! I just figured you were going to pass out now
2:35 Me: I'm probably not as drunk as you think... still think it's odd I'm the one you're worrying about though
So yeah, I feel like I was too obvious there... and I'm wondering if people in general think it's just a good idea to avoid texting after a couple drinks?
