There's a girl at smerk who is about my age and pretty nice. She's artistic and creative and open minded, which is kind of hard to find.
She just moved back to Springfield about half a year ago and is having a hard time making friends. (the first sign)
I let her try on some formal dresses I had from high school and college for this pageant she was in. She broke the zipper on one - thank god it wasn't my favorite one - and told me about it. Which was cool, she could have thrown it back in the bag and I wouldn't have noticed for another 4 years until someone else needed a dress for something.
She might have said sorry, I don't remember,
but she didn't offer to have it fixed! The dresses were long and a bitch to haul back and forth to smerk and she didn't wrap them back up for me to take home, she just put them back on the hangers and I had to shove them back in the protective wrap.
(any women who has even worn a dress and had to stick it in the wrap knows what a bitch it is, especially when you have to do it to 6 or 7 of them)
She nagged a co-smerker to set her up with a guy. They went on a double date, all got long fine, but when they guy called the girl to ask her about again she told him that
she really wasn't attacted to him, didn't feel sparks.
After the girl did her a
FAVOR, and the guy is really nice and all the sucky girl had to do was say she would hang out with him, but just wanted to be friends, or something - anything more tactful then
telling him she wasn't attracted to him after acting like she like she was interested in him.
For some reason this girl really likes me and constantly asks me to do things with her. Before I realized how pushy and annouying she was, I said I would, but never got around to it.
How she keeps asking, she doesn't have very many of her own friends so when I say I have plans with mine she implies I should invite her
( I like my friends, I'm not spreading the problem around!). We avoid telling her where we are going to lunch because she will invite herself.
Even though this girl obviously sucks, I feel really bitchy and selfish not doing more to be nice to her.
But I don't want my regular life and smerk lives to cross. The sucky girl talks about personal things I wouldn't talk about at work, like meeting guys off the internet. I let her read one of my poems (before I didn't like her) because she is into some of the same stuff as me and she pretty much announced to the office that they were pornographic. (1. they are not 2. not something you announce at an insurance office)
I hate making people feel bad and she knows I am putting her off. Am I horrible?
(on the upside I brought some Tori Amos Cds into smerk to listen too. it's lovely)
