Just a quick blog about something that was said to me yesterday. I considered keeping it to myself but would rather get it off my chest. I bumped into an old lady-friend and thought it would be nice to have a chat. We exchanged pleasantries and everything seemed normal, but then, out of no-where - she started to very calmly insult me. A number of things were said, all the usual "You're a bastard" type things. That's fine, it was more than a little odd but I'm not offended easily. I attempted to get an explanation from her and in the process put my hand on her shoulder - gently. That was, of course, a mistake. My hand was thrown away from her with great force and speed. I could see that terrifying, womanly anger in her eyes. I was growing more confused by the second and didn't know what to think. I almost laughed at this bizarre show of conflicting emotions. She kept throwing insults at me and hit me on the chest at one point. By this time, I'm wondering what I should do if she lashes out at me. Conflict is different with a woman, what would I do? Run away? No. Stand and fight? Of course not. Thankfully though, it didn't come to that. She soon began to move away but continued to mutter insults and point. The whole incident reminded me of Lady Macbeth, in her "..is this a dagger.." stage. I kept trying to tame this banshee, but to no avail. I was expecting to have an interesting story to tell and nothing more, but then - she threw one last 'insult' my way. She called me a womaniser.
I'm not completely sure why, but this hurt a little. I'm not sensitive but it made me feel sick. I don't even understand what I'm supposed to have done to her. Our relationship was always strictly platonic. Perhaps she needs psychiatric help? Am I really a womaniser? My dictionary says of a womaniser, 'A promiscuous heterosexual man'. To me though, it is more that that. I feel as though it means I'm a nasty person; one with no feelings or heart. Someone who lead others on, falsely. I don't know. It hasn't depressed me or anything, I'm just in a silly mood because of it. One I can't seem to shake. I felt like sharing it with you. ManofThunder, signing out.
