I was out with some friends last night when I saw them. It’s been a while since we last saw each other. The break-up wasn’t bad or anything. It was Hmmmm, what do I call it? Plain! Yes, plain is the word. Anyhow, so back to last night. They sat across me the whole night; that’s the Ex and his best friend. The Ex’s best friend (EBF) and I met many times; we went out for dinner, movie, the beach, and I even helped him with his homework few times.
When I got home, I thought of texting the EBF; he was a friend after all.
Me: I think I saw you… Were you at X place tonight?
EBF: Yes, it was me. But you were the spirit of the place; blah blah blah (I didn’t understand what he said)
Me: Sorry, I didn’t get what you mean
EBF: It’s OK! We saw you when we first got in and saw you when we left, and I saw you while you were eating, bel3afya. You looked amazing by the way.
I got busy so I didn’t reply; 10 minutes later he called.
EBF: How come you didn’t see us? (I could hear the EX next to him whispering something to him)
Me: I don’t know! You know me, I am always confused.
EBF: You look different, a new hair do? I
Me: Yeh, I changed my hair.
EBF: I love it! It’s great to see you pretty girl
Me: Thanks…so how are you?
EBF: Great; now that I saw you. How about you? How is work?
Me: I don’t do work anymore.
EBF: Good for you!
Me: Not really, I’m bored already. Nothing to do.
EBF: Well, go take a walk by the beach.
Me: I already do my jog by the beach every morning but then I get bored since everyone is at work or sleeping.
EBF: Well, I do that too. I leave work early and take a walk by the ebach since the weather is amazing those days.
Me: Anyways, it was good seeing you. Keep in touch.
EBF: You too pretty girl, I will see you soon.
Ten minutes later, I get a text from him.
EBF: Hi Shopa. I was wondering, since I go jog on the beach, maybe you can come and join me, if that’s fine with you? And sorry to bother you.
I didn’t know what to say. Something just doesn’t feel right. He is talking to me, texting me while the Ex is sitting next to him. So I decide to not reply. Five minutes later, he called. I didn’t pick up. He called once again after 15 minutes, I didn’t pick up.
Early this morning, he texted me.
EBF: Good morning shopa 
I didn’t reply. Since then he called me 3 times.
I am very much confused. What does that mean? If it’s what I think it is and what my friends think it is, then this guy has gone mad. When I sent him the text after seeing him I was being the genuine me. I am still surprised.
AHA!!! Well guess what!! that’s what pissed me off today!! them boys are stupid!
I will tell what it means, or hmm… la mabeee.
He got the wrong impression and now he probably thinks your playing hard to get.
Invite him for that morning jog; and plan it at the same place as the cross country runners. When he gets there and calls you, tell him you got busy, but he should run with the group.
Boys will be boys, its obvious what he wants … but there is confusion about the intentions
Your intentions or his?
Most probably he’s going to bring the ex along (his plan all along) so that you and him could talk. You should just ask him up front what is up with all the compliments and see what he says.
He wants to see if you’re that kind of girl . Or he wants to test you or he thinks you might have always liked his friend so he’s offered you to his friend or .
Sorry if that sounded harsh but I’m probably sure that any of the above must be true or the small chance that it might not have been the ex who was whispering .
هذا يسمونى شاف ما شاف… شاف شوبا و تخبل
it was so obvious from his conversasion “pretty girl” tht he was flirting.
