"Awk-ward." One more time: awk-ward

Okay, so there’s this guy. He used to be my barista over a year ago (no, not my beloved Karl) and I saw him often. Pretty cool guy. Not interested. He was ridiculously tall, with horse teeth, and an unhealthy complexion. However, when seeing someone so often, we got to know each other and hung out a few times. Cool, more friends the merrier! He gave me free drinks, sweet. Anyway, February came around and I organized a singles’ Valentines shindig (freakin’ awesome!) and when I created a facebook group for it, I added him to the invite list. Why not?

Well turns out barista buddy got the wrong idea. He sent me a message saying he was “flattered”, but that he was in a relationship and didn’t think it was appropriate to spend Valentines with me, but that he hoped we could still be friends. WTF?! Are you kidding me? Buddy, get over yourself. Anyway, that was over year ago. I had written him back to clarify that I was completely not interested (tactfully, I left out the part about the teeth), but didn’t have any other communications with him. Until yesterday. Shit.

I guess he switched Starbucks’ and ended up at the one by my house. LAME. I walked in and saw him, but it would have been low to turn around and go out again. I mean, that’s just straight up immature. He pretended not to recognize me, then we exchanged awkward conversation. Not cool!!! This is *my* Starbucks, what is he doing working there?!
