Yeah but she didn’t talk to me afterwards

Mine would have been when I was 16 I invited a girl to a party. The girl rocked up late and by the time she rocked up I was already hooking up with someone else. She caused a scene and it was mayhem.
Matched with a girl from work on this dating app and now we’re talking. I have a bad feeling about this

My experience with workplace romances is it’s not a good idea for a multitude of reasons. Chief among them is if it goes sour you have to see them everyday.
How did this go in the end??

Nothing materialised, probably for the best aha, dating girls I work with isn’t usually my scene

After I split from my ex wife the first time I ended up in a hotel room with a new woman I shat myself. The idea of sleeping with someone new after all those many years made me feel very uncomfortable.
Then I had bad wind from the panic so I kept on running off to the bathroom to fart but the bathroom door wasn’t very sound proofed. That made me feel even worse.
Then she made me wear a Johnny which I hate. But I guessed she might do this before hand so I’d asked one of my older brothers to lend me one of his viagras in advance to give me extra vigour if needed. Then I took it because I was flagging and went red as a beetroot and got a headache but it still didn’t have the desired effect (never again do I want to try one of those blue pills!).
My date was very unimpressed and told me a long while after the event that she nearly gave up on me on the spot. Fortunately I was more relaxed when given a second chance a few days later and we went on to have a very good romantic life.
I think that was my worst date ever.
I’m just waiting for Aussie to call me a pommy wimp after telling that story.

What a rollercoaster of a story.

So the blue pill didn’t work for you - how did you get a headache as they are supposed to lower your blood pressure … no ?
Headaches can be a side effect, particularly if the patient is already taking nitrates (in which case it’s inadvisable)

No idea. Possibly it was the bottle of wine I’d had before hand didn’t help. I tend to get headaches easily anyway since I developed a cervical stenosis which means I always feel like I have a painful cricked neck.

So I’m in the fucking mud.
I was blind post game after the footy yesterday at the pub and supposedly someone has sent my mrs a Snapchat of me hooking up with another bird.
This is out of character for me tbh, but I’m deep shit as it was a bird that case had warned me about after I insisted we were just friends as she has a partner and 2 kids also.
Walking on eggshells at home as we speak and I know that I’ve bought it on myself. It’s not a defence but when someone is all over you and you’re really drunk it’s a bad mix.
Oh dear mate, yea the best thing you could probably do for now is to keep a low profile until your other half has calmed down. Maybe that or quit drinking 
I certainly need to make sure I don’t get that pissed in the future so I’m more in control of my actions.
Yeah mate gonna be a rough ride and I have a lot of making up to do.
Yikes, man. Sorry to hear.
Hope you can successfully make amends and that you got a comfortable couch to sleep on for a few nights!

By “hook up” I assume you mean a kiss or two and nothing more.
You know this is going on your permanent record. It will take ages for her to get over this, assuming she’s can get over this. The big problem here is that this is someone she had warned you about so she obviously had sensed something. Is your wife someone who doubts any woman friend you have/are close with or was this one different?
Whatever be the case, she isn’t going to trust you any more and that’s got to hurt. I have known couples who are more or less estranged for lesser.
My advise would be to just be yourself. I don’t mean continue as if nothing happened, but at the same time, I wouldn’t advise you do stuff that is out of character for you, just to appease her. The only way out of this is to talk it out. It’s going to be a difficult conversation and there will be many of those in the coming days.
Did you speak to your pals who were with you in the pub, and less drunk? What did they say about what happened?
@Aussiegooner, some of the below might seem harsh and blunt, so choose to ignore it if you don’t want the thoughts of some random person on the Internet.
Not an excuse at all. If you can’t handle your alcohol, stop drinking. And you say “someone is all over you” meaning you think she came on to you. How do you know that was the case when you were obviously too drunk? Even if she came on to you, it doesn’t absolve you any wrongdoing so I hope you aren’t telling yourself that or using that as an excuse with your wife. I don’t drink so I can’t comment on whether alcohol can make you do things out of character but I would seriously question myself. I don’t know you personally but if you were one of my mates, I’d be hugely disappointed in you. TBH, I am bit disappointed even now.
Tell me, had your wife not come to know about this incident, but say one of your mates told you about what happened, would you own up to her? Personally, if this was something that happened to me, no one would be more disappointed in me than myself. I probably would struggle with this for the rest of my life cause I am just wired that way.
In the end, I really hope you can work things out with your wife and repair whatever damage this has caused. It’s not the end of the world and you both can emerge stronger from this as a couple. All the best my friend.
