What’s the worst thing you’ve ever done to [a] girl?
I feel terrible about this to this day, but when I was at some military training there was this Air Force girl there that was like a little puppy dog the way she was into me. I have no idea why. No, I wasn’t attracted to her and didn’t sleep with her. I’m not that evil.
But I did my best to be her friend though she got on my (and most people’s) nerves. I should’ve been clearer about that to her, but I also didn’t want to hurt her. There didn’t seem to be any call for that.
That said, on to what I did. For some reason she had these absolutely huge and heavy photography cases. They were about 4×3′ and weighed a good 80 pounds each. There were two of them. This was excessive and unnecessary for what we were doing, by the way.
During our last days in training, she asked me to help her with these absurdly large cases, which involved taking them to and carrying them through the airport. Now, this was before 9/11 — I could’ve walked all the way to the gate with her. However, I did not need to go to this airport and had no reason to drive that way.
I told her I would help her, though.
The day we were all set to leave, I thought about how much work it’d take to deal with those cases, how far out of my way it was and how much she annoyed me. I pondered that for a bit, then got in my car and drove away. I didn’t call her or let her know — I just disappeared.
I’m not proud. But that is what I did. Sorry, weird Air Force girl.
