E.L.S.
Jan 25, 2009
This guy was the son of our external auditor. I find him arrogant at first because he is tall and the way he walked was so annoying to me. We became office mates but he was assigned in a different department. I was not aware that he already liked me the first time he saw me. Weeks or months have passed and I don't pay extra attention to him. He was just like one of the guys in our office. Then one night, while I was out with friends playing billiards, I received a text from one of our female coworkers asking my permission if she can give my number to a certain guy. She did not mention who it was but I just said it's okay. A few minutes later, E.L.S. texted and introduced himself. We became textmates. I was in a shaky relationship at that time but we cannot personally talk because it was a very complicated situation. I admit I started to like him but I don't want to complicate things. He was related to my boyfriend. He told me that he told his parents about me and that his parents even told him to stop bothering me. But he will always find a way to get in touch with me. He invited me a lot of times to go out but I declined many times. Then for the first time, I accepted his invitation. We met at a pizza parlor. We had snacks. After eating, I left alone and he was left behind. The second date would be with friends. We went to a bar and had some drinks. That's just it. The third date, we were alone again. It was an after dinner date. We had the chance to talk. But I was really not interested in having a relationship with him. Besides, he was really not courting me. We were just getting to know each other.
Then one day, I heard a story that he made fun of one of the girls in our office and it was a total turn off for me. I started to avoid him ever since then. I don't answer his text and I rejected his calls. I never said another word to him. He told me he was going crazy because of what I was doing. He said he don't remember anything he had done to make me go cold. He told me I was his dream girl and he will marry me once I finished school.
We never went steady. That happened about 7 years ago but people still talked about it. We still work in the same company but he was assigned in a different place. We're friends now. And I don't think I need to explain everything to everyone. All I care is that my conscience is clear.
