I had a date last thursday. In my city, shops are open untill 2100 pm on thursday. I had a date, first time, guy I met in real life.
we went for something to eat in the city.
it was crowded and I had a few words with a woman about a seat in the restaurant. she became very ugly towards me....I shall spare you details but in short, I told her to get lost and turned my back at her and her friends. the rest of our time in the restaurant, she kept attacking me verbally........and what did my date do?
sat quietly, ate his meal with the speed of light, kissed farewell and walked away. texting me he had a nice evening out but was not interested.
the knight had rusty armour and his horse was terminal I guess. what a bummer.....not even one word to stand up for me...
I wonder if there is any hope left...
I think that because the date was in YOUR city, you where sort of leading. He might have thought you were familiar with the restaurant and could be why he let you sort out the "chair situation" (may be).
I think you felt you were the host and he was the guest also because of being in YOUR city. I think that is you took the lead in sorting out the missing chair and why it threw you out of balance when the woman refused you the chair, because someone was being unkind to you in your patch in front of your date (the guest). And I think your hurt pride is what caused your reaction to her. Unfortunately reactions to events are often not "rational" decisions and it all escalted and got out of hand.
May be no one is to blame. It's probably happened to every one to feel proud and "kind of" enjoy showing someone around and when someone bursts your bubble we over-react.
Carenza hope you stop feeling bad about the experience. We all need to learn not to let others burst our bubbles. And may be we all need to learn not to have too many bubbles so that we act rather than react
rohaan: Yeah, and I'm not going to work on Maggie's farm no more, 'cause a hard rain's gonna fall on Mr. Tambourine man and my big brass bed is going to rust.

rohaan: you have a nice way of putting things. I wish I were a little more diplomatic.
Thanks Rohann
I know a few fairly aggressive women, and at least one of them would be pissed off if someone tried to step in, regardless of whether it was a man or a woman. They're all quite capable of handling themselves in nearly any situation, so I let them.
SUNSHINEB0Y: the answer my friend, is blowin in the wind....
But, suddenly it happened, I lost every dime, but I'm richer by far, with a satisfied mind...gotta go all you cool folks on here! Love you, yes, really, I do...good night

I don't see how it can be the man's fault beause his date got into an arguemnet with another person in a diner over a piece of furniture.Couldn't she had asked one of the waitstaff for another chair herself.
