For some strange reason The Mexican (we work together) keeps asking me to go out with him every Friday or Saturday night. Each and every time I say “NO.” He doesn’t get the hint.
The Frisky?
Marley likes The Mexican, romantically.
She and I are friends.
I made the mistake of using her as an excuse to not go out with The Mexican last Friday. I said “Sorry, I cant. Marley likes you and we’re good friends.” I lied. I just don’t like him. At all. He flips out. “I promise, I don’t like her. Nothing will ever happen between her and I. She keeps telling people she likes me, it needs to stop because I don’t like her.” He wouldn’t take that or a “NO” for an answer. I ignore his ten, yes, TEN other incoming text messages for the night.
I express my frustrations with Javier only to find out why The Mexican keeps asking me out. I leave work and theres a text from Javi.
Javi : Hey…Um I may have told Marcella that two girls from the sales floor have a thing for The Mexican. Sooo that may be why he asked you out. MY BAD.
Me: Are you fucking kidding me?
Javi: Yeah, you guys told me about him. I didn’t know who he was so I asked marcell and she asked “why?” so I said two girls from the sales floor like him. It just came out. IM SO SORRY!!
So he thinks I like him. Gross. I’m sorry Im pursuing a career as a Sugar Baby. Retail stock boy is waaaay below my standards especially if he’s much older than me. Ewwww.
I have to clear this up. I text The Mexican.
Me: We need to talk.
Me: Why do you keep asking me out?
The Mexican: What are you talking about?
Me: Are you an idiot? Look when I said I wouldnt go out with you because marley likes you…I lied. Honestly it was unfair to her for me to use her as an excuse. I dont like you that way. Im not attracted to you at all.
He continues to tell me that he doesnt have feelings for her and how there would never be anything between them, ever.
Me: Doesn’t matter. I don’t like you the same way that you like me. Im sorry.
Him: Sorry okay bye. I delete your number okay sorry bye okay.
