Questionably Fabulous

Last week some friends and I went to a local pub to listen to a few live bands.  I was feeling super tired after driving more than 200 miles in the work day and was a little ticked off with the way the evening started…  But alas, I made it to the bar and was rewarded with a beer.

At one point my husband and I were standing with four of our friends and since the guy girl ration was even, it did appear as though it were 3 couples hanging out.  I make this distinction because what proceeded to happen was so strange given the way the scene was set. 

A guy comes between my husband (leaning on the bar) and I (standing directly in front of him / to his left in the circle of friends) and says “Excuse me does anyone want a beer?” and shoves a dark ale into the circle.  I apparently was the only one who heard him, but this might have been due to the splashing of beer on my sleeve.  In any event I say no.  I mean honestly, hello?  College town – roofies, ever heard of it?  The guy asks me if I’d watch his beer for him.  Seeing that this is getting slightly flirtatious I say, flaunting my left hand in his face, “No, I can’t watch your beer for you but perhaps my single friend could.” And I point to my left.  Also while doing this I kicked her a few times but she hung me out to dry and pretended not to notice. 

Whatever, the guy continues to talk to me, asking me if I go to CalPoly and the old lady in me was flattered so I entertained a few laughs with this guy all the while kicking my single friend (cause he was hot) and glancing at my husband for help.   A few minutes later my guy friend and husband start to notice that this guy is hard core hitting on me and Bryan turns his attention to him by saying “That is my wife you’re hitting on right there.” with this huge satirical smile on his face.  Then he swings his arm around the guy’s neck (my hubby is 6’3” and dude was maybe 5’10”) and gives him a good jostling.  Half way being “cool” and half way being “knock it the F off”. 

I know you’re thinking, AC, that is totally normal.  That all is, I agree, but is it normal for the guy to then ask Bryan for his number?  I mean, seriously?  I’m all for a good bromance but the guy basically hit on me and then went home with my husband’s cell number.  Strange.  Very strange.
