It's all about underwear really
Ok I have a problem. Ok I know I have many problems, but this is one I can't talk about on my blog because both girls involved read it.
Last year I liked a girl. This girl had a boyfriend. I ignored the fact and carried on flirting mercilessly with her. When I was back home in South Africa (on holiday), we were still flirting a lot via SMS and phone calls and mails. Just before I left to come back I bought her some clothes. A very nice ankle length skirt and matching top, and, erm, some underwear. All very nice clothes at a cost of about £100.
I made sure the shop would let me return the clothes 3 months later when a friend was returning to South Africa. Ok so naturally the girl refused to accept the clothes on the grounds she has a boyfriend. I didn't and still don't understand but never mind. I said, just tell him you bought them yourself, but well no.
So I send the clothes back to SA with my mate. He however looses the invoice and forgets for months to take them back. So of course the shop wont refund the clothes no matter how much yelling and screaming and begging my friend tries. So the clothes come back to London. Now having done well over 15000 miles.
So I suggest to the girl that perhaps she wants to buy them from me. They are very nice clothes after all and this will allow her to get over these moral dilemmas she is having with her boyfriend. I am also now seeing someone so there's no longer any sort of anything flirting wise going on between us. She seems to like the idea and picks up the clothes.
However two months later, she still hasn't touched the clothes, has changed her mine and they get returned to me. This is all becoming a bit of an albatross around my neck.
So I think I'll ask the girl I'm currently seeing. I think I'll be honest and explain the whole story and see if she wants the clothes if they fit or if she can help me get rid of them. I know, I didn't know what I was thinking either. Apparently I'm an idiot. Not helped by the fact the first girl was tall and thin, and the girl I'm currently seeing is not tall and not as thin. Apparently honesty and stupidity do not combine well. So after 3 days of being in the dog box, and an angry women on my hands, I still have the clothes.
Now I'm not going to wear them as nice as they are. What the fuck do I do with them. Because there is underwear (a cute vest and knickers) I can't just approach female friends and ask them. I don't really want to put them on ebay. What do I do?

send 'em on over.
kate · October 29, 2003 10:33You don't want to see pictures first? I have learnt now that offering clothes to girls who they may not fit gets me in trouble.
Adrian Sevitz · October 29, 2003 10:44huh. i thought i gave off a tall-and-thin vibe.
kate · October 29, 2003 10:47You may very well. Just had to tell when your all text to me.
Adrian Sevitz · October 29, 2003 10:57Adrian, surely you've seen Kate's legs?
Stuart · October 29, 2003 11:18I've seen lots of legs of people. It's possible one of those random legs could have been Kates. But I don't think I have seen Kates.
Adrian Sevitz · October 29, 2003 11:19I'm disturbed that in your leg-seeing experiences, you make it sound as if you have been in situations where you only see one of a person's legs.
As though the rest of them wasn't there at the time.
Stuart · October 29, 2003 11:28Anyway, Kate's legs are here.
Stuart · October 29, 2003 11:30That picture will be haunting Kate forever. Someone should save it, in case she ever takes it into her head to delete it.
Karen · October 29, 2003 11:33You want it to haunt her forever?
Stuart · October 29, 2003 11:34Ok I would have remembered those legs. I have a good memory for legs like that.
If those legs are part of a 5'9 body thats bout a size 8? (Size 28 levi's). Then those legs would fit my clothes and underwear. At least I think they would, but I have been proven wrong.
I think I ned pictures of the clothes ... Which I can't do till I am back in London on friday night.
Adrian Sevitz · October 29, 2003 11:45You never know when we might need it, Stuart.
Karen · October 29, 2003 11:48...true...
Stuart · October 29, 2003 12:22oh, lord.
kate · October 29, 2003 14:14Hey, they're your legs. Don't see what theirs to worry about. It's not like you have womens underwear that you don't know what to do with ...
Adrian Sevitz · October 29, 2003 14:30No...probably not.
You see, Adrian, Kate probably knows what to do with her underwear, having been tutored in the subject at a young age.
We await the photographs with bated breath...
Stuart · October 29, 2003 14:55Please tell me you await for photos of Kate in her underwear and not me in womens underwear too small for me. Please ...
