She then broke the news to him.<br /><br />He sounds like a cry baby and a snitch. what are you inlove bro? Pull your big boy pants up. If you were shaking then obviously she was out of your league.. I bet you still paid for the dinner thinking you STILL have a chance and then the second you realized you didnt you ran to the boss and cried about it.

And I can see a chick starting out thinking a prank is a good idea then having second thoughts and being unwilling to go thru with it after it gets started. I'd find it more suspicious if the OP did know all the events that contributed to this.

Phoney.<br /><br />A person who gets the psychological stuffing knocked out of them would not have the gumption to complain to management. He probably would have called in sick the next day.<br /><br />If Louise had been a real person capable of playing such an elaborate joke, she certainly would have had the ability to convincingly deny the story. Moreover, she would have defended herself by making some counter accusation.<br /><br />Why would Louise have conspired with Marty? The OP offers zero explanation.<br /><br />Also missing is some coherent account of the dinner. Did Louise go all the way to some restaurant and not eat dinner? If she was such a cruel and convincing actress, she would have eaten a good dinner at the OP's expense and spilled the beans over desert.<br /><br />Marty would have strolled in laughing or something like that. <br /><br />This is a patently fake submission.Seven-thirtynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-49436463807805242052010-05-10T17:33:13.325-04:002010-05-10T17:33:13.325-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.nomatophobiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17765718970953715165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-76488899233783302762010-05-10T17:08:01.372-04:002010-05-10T17:08:01.372-04:00You went and cried to your boss and someone got de...You went and cried to your boss and someone got demoted.<br /><br />I'm not carrying Ralphy on my shoulders.
