What happens? Decides to tag along. I'd been taking 4-FA the day before and was dosing pretty heavily that afternoon, so I made a deal that she could come out if she promised no headfucks, moodswings, mania, possessiveness, psychic vampirism or silliness. In order to ensure this, we broke off to hers for 'a joint' and 0.5mg alpraz she promised to take.
I love this woman dearly to the extent that one look just makes me want to squeeze her, and I enjoy her company, but she's fucked up plenty of nights where I just want to enjoy myself - and she's ruined other people's nights too. People might question why we still see each other, but the relationship is nowhere near as negative as it might ound from the worst bits.
Anyway, she proceeds to extend the 'half hour / hour' smoking period into three hours of her knocking back generous measures of the cognac I'd just given her, secretly not taking the alpraz and then getting more and more unstable and draining, till the mood swung back to enthusiasm and positivity again.
So I'm already pissed off that I've missed three hours of the company of our mate and three hours of flirting. Because he's working and needs to get the bus, my mate has to leave early, by which time I'd struck up conversation with a girl that said mate has wanted to introduce me to for ages, and who has 'accidentally' bumped into me with her not-insubstantial (and pretty attractive) arse, making a point of a protracted apology by way of excuse to start a conversation the second time around.
I move from my seat to the one which my mate has vacated; which is in the middle of a sofa, with my ex at the other side.
As predicted, said woman and I get on like a house on fire and are already beyond the small talk stage and taking genuine interest in each other's conversation within half an hour. At which point the normal person would make their excuses and leave their mate to it, but instead we get evil stares for over an hour. The woman in question expresses surprise at the fact that my ex is my ex and is still hanging about. She even tries to get said ex involved in the conversation, to which her reply is some derogatory remark claiming she isn't bothered about who I talk to because I'm a tosser. Or words to that effect.
Conversation doesn't last long beyond that, but my new acquaintance makes a point of coming over to say goobye and hug me before going. And gives me a pleasant stroke in the crook of my left arm, which may well have been an attempt to check for tracks rather than anything more, but felt nice and tingly. A good person to know, even if (as is inevitable) nowt else happens.
Anyway, in all the time I've been talking I've not had time to redose 4-FA or drop a benzo, so I'm starting to feel a bit sketched because of my still-present ex's antics. She then informs me she's taken the xanax (several hours after I suggested it) meaning she's both knackered and in a typical booze / benzo strop and we must leave immediately, even though I'm just trying to relax and maybe talk to another woman I know and have spotted, to which the response is a vibe-killing, headfucking strop. Which continues on the short walk back, till our paths finallly diverge.
If anyone's wondering why I didn't just tell her to fuck off just
don't ask. I dropped hints, and what bigger hint is there to make yourself scarce than your ex blatantly chatting up another woman?
