I hate being stuck in the middle
Sep. 12th, 2009 03:48 pmSigh. For as much as I stir the pot, fling the poo, and fan the drama, I just hate it when friends fight. I mean, there's always the feeling that I'm caught in the middle, that each side expects me to side with them... ugh. We're adults. Let's everyone wear our big girl panties.
Anyway, flist, this is the short of it: A friend of mine, Twig, just got married to a guy named Dave (and they adopted a bunch of babies, and there was some cheating drama) and she's is really working the OMG Marriage=the One True Happiness. Everyone get married right now! Luckily, I'm married so she's fairly easy for me to tolerate (the "we married gals" gets a bit old, but who am I to say another about kicking dead horses?).
Twig has super-duper been on YesD's case about "finding someone nice and getting married and finally having happiness" and YesD has been sorta 'meh' on the whole thing. I knew YesD was seeing someone and keeping on the QT, and with Twig being all marriage!babies!TheOnlyWayToKnowHappinessAsAWoman, well, I couldn't blame YesD for trying to go under the radar.
I mean, yeah I was hurt that YesD wouldn't tell me. I can keep a secret like whoa. But, YesD is a good friend, and I tried to respect her wishes. Well, I guess the relationship between YesD and the Mystery Person deepened, and YesD decided it was time for introductions between friends.
So there was a "double-date" at Arby's-- Moe and I weren't invited, but whatever-- and well, it didn't go well.
Twig and Dave got there first, and were just tucking into their Buffalo Shakers appetizers when YesD walks in with her girlfriend, Diablo. Dave "Marriage Is A Special Bond Between A Man, A Woman, Jesus, and Whatever Diva I'm Boning This Week" Bats didn't quite get the situation at first. He said something like "So ya got stood up, huh? I guess that means 3 ladies for me. Hehehe. You're paying for your own combos, though."
YesD tried to play it cool, even though she was fucking livid, and she was like "I'd like you to meet my girlfriend Diablo."
I don't want to feel like I'm spreading private shit around so I'll just say it ended up with Dave explaining that his penis will cure what ails them, Twig wailing because now YesD will never get married for real-- she could do a Canadian one, but let's face it. Those don't count, and now Twig will never get to be a Matron of Honor and what about babies! how will their babies grow up being best friends just like them. YesD remained livid, and Diablo wrote a shitty, shitty script about it so soon we'll all have to suffer.
