naked in public? you bet!
i once dated a guy due to the whole "your best friend is sleeping with my best friend" deal. it wasn't long before i discovered that, as well as the unsettling skin complaint, he also suffered from epilepsy and alcoholism. hardly a catch.
i tried dumping him, but good old pity stopped me every time. also, he refused to accept that i wanted to break up with him and would put it down to my hormones. i was the first girl he'd ever dated and he'd decided he loved me. it wasn't love, it was a lack of options.
anyway, after about 2 months, i went on holiday without him. the wonderful time i had(plus the cute spanish guy i shagged) made me realise that i couldn't bear to be with him anymore.
but how was i going to get rid of him? that's it! public humiliation! i was throwing a party when i got home with all my duty free booze, so i'd make a scene and dump him there and then, right in front of everyone.

things did not go exactly to plan.

i and my best friend debbie had the party all set up by 7.30, but nobody was getting there till 10, so we decided to have a little drink.
and another.
and another.
and another.
by the time everyone got there, we were half pissed. 'twas an epic party nonetheless, it even resulted in me being evicted, but that's a story for another time. everyone was drunk and drunken rash boy was all over me like, well, a rash.
this is where things get a bit fuzzy.
i was living in a large bedsit, so my bed was in the same room as the rest of the party. at some point, being horrendously drunk, i decided that sex with my boyfriend would be a good idea. unfortunately, his epilepsy medication meant that he was not at home to mr. hardon. according to my friends, i sat, completely naked, on the edge of my bed, screaming at him that he couldn't get it up with a concrete injection and was neither use nor ornament.
the party broke up quickly after that, but not as quickly as our relationship.

length? 14 years ago and my friends still rave about that party.

whoa!
I can see why the alcoholism can be an issue, but really, he's 'hardly a catch' because he has epilepsy? Wha'?!

@CHCB
it wasn't the epilepsy, it was the fact that his skin was flakier than a box of kellog's finest.

I was under the impression
that alcohol canceled out the positive effects of epilepsy medication? Sounds like a smart boy!

he comes from a family of drinkers
his best mate had to do first aid so that he could deal with my ex when he fitted on the way home from the pub.
