Dreading today’s trip
In under an hour K and me have to go for a trip that I’ve been dreading for the past week or two - it’s shopping time!!
Nah, its not the shopping I’m dreading, I love shopping. In fact, I’m probably one of the best guys to shop with if you are a girl. I hate shopping for myself, I LOVE shopping for/with others, I have decent taste/fashion sense at the least but most importantly - I enjoy shopping for long hours. I don’t care if you want to try out twenty tops and buy just one. Actually, I think it’s perfectly fine if after trying those twenty, you think you want to check out the other shops (and sixty more tops) before you decide on one…
But anyways I got distracted with my vanity. Oh yes - vanity - the reason I’m dreading this trip in particular. Well see we have to go to this outlet mall with another couple - which would be fine. But the thing is, one of the guys’ mom is around and we need to take her along as well. And just to avoid confusion, let me christen them both - lets call the son ‘E’ and the boyfriend ‘B’.
Now the thing is, B has this conflict with E’s mother and they don’t really get along famously. And also for some reason, B doesn’t like me very much (to put it politely). So I know it’s going to end up being E and his mom and B trying to sneak K out of my earshot for some bitching and crap. That basically leaves me stranded alone and with nothing really to do (remember I don’t like shopping for myself!).
Also, both K and me need to get a little bit of summer shopping done and I know thats not going to happen either. K isn’t exactly comfortable shopping with someone around and I’m one of the few people (atleast as I believe) that she can shop with. And with E and B around, there’s also the factor of their hideous taste. I mean E is ok - sometimes he comes up with really good stuff, sometimes with decent stuff but the rest of the time with really weird (and not at all in a good way) stuff. And as for B - really someone needs to tell him that inspite of his taste being a complete mimicry of E, it sucks completely!
Anywho… there’s more to why I’m dreading the trip but I think I need to go for now.. so will update this soon ![]()

OMG are you real? You have to marry me. lol Seriously, J HATES shopping. And that’s putting it lightly. He’s a nightmare in the shops, once I do manage to drag him there we always fight.
I’m sorry you’re dreading it, I hope it turns out okay?
hehehehe I feel for you. I can understand how shopping with a bad co-shopper can be. But then again, not everyone’s perfect right!
And yeah it turned out pretty fine. Will prob’ly put up an update post on it in a bit.
