I'm very confident and straight forward
So when this guy from the office and I grow very, very close (mainly because of his insistence of teaching me everything he knew about real ale and of showing me all the good pubs in Manchester) I decided to go for it. What could go wrong?

So one of those evenings after work, after a lot of beer, and hugs, and holding hands, I went a bit further and kissed his cheek and hugged him; and he kissed my cheek back and hugged me. Then I kissed his chin, and he hugged me a looong hug. Then I kissed the tip of his nose, and he hold my shoulders and pushed me back gently, and asked:

-"You've never been spurned, have you?"
-"I've never been what?"
-"Spurned, you know? When you ask someone out and he turns you down. Spurned."
-"Ah, no. You're right. I haven't"
-"I thought so. Well, I'm sorry I'm gonna have to be the first one"
-...
...
... ok...

Three months later I was f*king him and now we're living together and talking about babies.

Challenges to me!

Spurned?
Is that something the Japanese do to whales before they skin them?

I don't know
I think that's the word he used:

But correct me if I'm wrong.
