Re: Most embarrassing relationship you have been in.
I have no idea how it happened. I could barely work up the nerve to text with people I was actually interested in.
I was incredibly passive the entire time. We did whatever he wanted whenever he wanted and I just... was there and strangely invested in being the absolute perfect girlfriend to this random.
He was kind of awful. At the time I didn't really have an opinion about him as strange as it sounds. Looking back I hate everything about him. He was a crude, boring, selfish, wannabe jock with shitty taste and no sense of humor who could only talk about playing football in high school, how much he intimidated other people, and the fights he almost got into. He enjoyed being rude to male employees. He was also in denial about being a deadbeat dad to top it off.
The only time I ever voiced an opinion about what I wanted to do was when I asked if we could go to the zoo. I was excited about it (or at least what passed it for me then) for a week. I finally had something to talk about when my coworkers asked what was up with me: I was going to the zoo!
The day of on the drive to the zoo he decided to stop at a tattoo parlor and price a tattoo (name of the kid he never saw or supported) he was thinking about getting someday. Then after that he decided to check with another tattoo artist he knew from high school and we spent the day driving around to tattoo parlors and running errands until the zoo closed.
I am ashamed to admit I never came to my senses and dumped him. What happened was one day I was feeling not so blank and made a nerdy pun and he got really irritated, physically jerked his arm away from me, and changed the subject. I didn't say anything at the time and went back to noncommittal responses but like three days later in the middle of him retelling yet another story from his high school days I asked him if he liked me. Cue it immediately, without any further dialogue from me, turning into him throwing a big histrionic about how if he couldn't make me happy by treating me like a non-entity that was my fault and I was hurting his feelings?
Again, didn't dump him.
A couple days later I got irritated that we were yet AGAIN watching sopranos on dvd instead of the new episode of the only tv show I was interested in at the time and asked why he never asked me what I wanted to watch. He blew up and said he was tired of having this argument "over and over and over" again and I apologized and asked him what he wanted for dinner. The next day when I was at work he texted me that he wanted to take a break and a bunch of other stuff that made it obvious this was a manipulative tactic. For a whole hot second I felt like a failure (?) and wanted to cry but then it passed and I texted back that I just wanted to break up.
But yeah, to this day sometimes I get to try to figure out why the hell I dated him when he suddenly texts me or I'll cringe when I randomly realize people know I dated him.
