Horrible thing I did
I was in Argos, this was many a year ago (back at uni) and when I picked up whatever tat it was that I bought, I chatted up a girl - whose name has long been forgotten in the mists of time...

Anyway, I managed to persuade her to come out with me on a night out with my mum and her friends - a dinner get-together if you will. Unfortunately, I'd forgotten that I'd invited my friend Phil out with me that same evening so he agrees to tag along.

Ok, this is no longer a date, but I reckon I can make this work.

Dammit - no I can't - Phil's good looking, charming and a damned nice fellow and she's more into him. Crap.

Some drink later.

She's more into Phil than me so I play the underhanded friend card:

"Phil, so how's xxxx and her daughter that you're seeing"

She goes cool on his, Phil is annoyed at me and she's no longer interested in me and leaves not long after.

No second date then?

Um. No...

The worst part of this is that I did a not dissimilar thing to him a few years later.

We're no longer friends.

(Sorry Phil!)
