the grand inquisition
last night The Boy and i went to a wedding together. yeah i know. it was his two friends from college. so this was the first time i was going to meet any of his friends, no pressure. i wasn't actually nervous, although i think he was, a little. but it was actually a lot of fun. it was a chinese wedding. the dinner was 13 courses, out of control! they had this game show host-type guy who basically narrated the whole thing, it was hillarious. they played all these games, just meant to embarass the bride and groom, good times. the bride had like 3 costume changes, FABULOUS! i am sooo having a chinese wedding!
and then the questions started. apparently there had been a little bit of a gossip train about "his date". who would i be, blah blah blah, because he replied as plus 1 before he asked me, so when people asked who he was bringing he just said, "you'll just have to wait and see". so as the night goes on his friends, one by one, come by and are all like, hi, soooo, are you his date?, uh huh, so how did you guys meet?, uh huh, so are you guys friends...?" yeah so i had not been debriefed on what to do in this situation before the wedding! so i was like, ummm, does he want all his friends to know we're dating? does he want me to be the one to tell them? well, after one person asked, i said, wellll, we're dating. and she was all excited. and i thought, well if i only tell one person, and that was the wrong thing to do, it won't be that big of a deal. ummm, yeah. but then about 7 or 8 of his friends asked me the same thing. the cat's out of the bag now!
so when we got home we were chatting about the night, and he said, "you know what was weird, no one asked me about us." and i just laughed, and said well that's because they all asked me instead! so i hope you don't care if you're friends know that we're dating, because they all know by now! and i gave him a hard time about not telling me what to say, and he just said, "i never thought they would ask you, i thought they would grill me to death first." overall a good night. apparently i received the seal of approval from the people that mattered, so it's all good in the hood.
