Epilogue

OK, Urban Melissa's Boyfriend is insane. Last night he left abruptly before the band started, leaving me with the tab. I shrugged it off as due to the stress of his Series 6 exam preparation or perhaps some drug he was on. Well, I just got a call from Urban Melissa----her boyfriend saw me check my text messages last night and noticed her name among my earlier texts---and all hell has broken loose! He barged in on her, started checking her phone, accused her of having an affair with me and using the text message feature to arrange a rendez-vous after the show!

Keep in mind that he was there because I was interested in one of the musicians. He was helping me establish street cred.

UMB uses cocaine, and I've been around enough coke users to see the ugly side effects of paranoia. His previous girlfriend cheated on him, too.

But, you know what? Get over it. We've all been cheated on. It does not give you license to treat your girlfriend and her friends like shit. I think the kid needs to grow up.

Urban Melissa doesn't know what to do right now. They were planning on moving in together. I give it three weeks.

How about - the guy has justifiable reason to be concerned when his girlfriend "hangs out with" her ex (you) and sends texts. And he knows your rep. You and Urban Melissa aren't all that concerned about boundaries, so if I were her man, I'd be worried, too. Why do you perpetuate these scenarios? Stop hanging out with girls you've had sex with. If you do, expect drama with their current boyfriends.

Uh---you're confusing Urban Melissa with Suburban Melissa. I've never slept with Urban Melissa. She's a friend.

I DO hang out with girls I haven't had sex with, you know....

In my experience, anytime there's coke involved, things will get obnoxious at best.

I love the point you made about cheating...it's true. We've all been cheated on, but that shouldn't equal a license to treat everyone like they're a cheater for the rest of forever. Acting like a grown up means letting some things go. (Also, it probably means no longer doing coke on a regular basis, but that's a whole nother issue.)

i agree with alice, i've hung out with some people recently who do coke on a regular basis and their mood swings definitely resembled your story you just told.

if they move in together it should be interesting, yikes..!
