Have you been Zinged?
Pet Hate: People that aren't up front.
Example:
A friend of mine went to stay at her boyfriend's house the other Friday night, as they had an event to attend the next day. That Saturday morning, said boyfriend went to have a haircut - 2 hours before they were meant to leave.
Come one and three quarter hours later, boyfriend arrives back home. When she asks where he's been (already fully knowing - call it women's intuition) he says "having a haircut, and I had to pick up my shirt from Mum's house". Zing.
So, she thinks "I'll get you".
Later on, when they arrive at their event, she feigns hunger (actually, not much feigning was needed), complaining she hadn't had breakfast, and was going up to get something from the food bar, and did he want anything? When he said no, she asked why - to which he didn't reply.
"You've had breakfast already, haven't you?"
"Yeah, I was at Mum's and she wanted to make me toast, etc because she hadn't seen me nearly all week."
"Yeah. Thanks very much for that."
If it hadn't been in front of all of his mates, whom she was meeting for the first time, and for the fact that all of her stuff and car was at his house - which was ages away from hers - then she would have walked out there and then.
Why not be upfront about it when he got home in the first place? Why not say "Yeah, sorry, I had breakfast with my Mum, but how about we go thru Macca's drive thru or something for you"? I guess that's just too thoughtful, hey?
It's not just a bit rough, it's plain bad manners. Men are cocks. They never change. And we just get Zinged because of it.

I jus had lunch with a friend who i think got zinged.
It might not be an official 'zing', but it is an example of boy crappiness.
She was with a guy for over 3yrs and then he decided to move to Holland for 'work', thus their relationship had no conclusion - he went overseas and they weren't going out anymore. Understandably this messed her up a lot and has taken a looooong time to get over (still not over it all).
She got a call from him on Thursday night saying he was in town and 'did they want to meet up' (bringing on a panic attack for her) - this was after 2 years of no contact (since the last time he was in town and she thought she'd see him to see if it would resolve anything - it didn't).
I think that's pretty bad, but the zinger was the fact that he'd known so long he'd be in town and had even called a friend of hers to tell him that he'd be in town and not to tell her ahead of time... WTF IS WITH THAT? HE WOULD KNOW IT WOULDN'T BE A GOOD SUPRISE!!!
Come on,
women are the queens of the zingdom!
All not-up-front and saying one thing and meaning another.
Guys are completely straight forward, if they say they don't like something or they don't want a relationship or they prefer ALF to the Thundercats, they mean it!
ahem,
i'm sorry to have soiled your blog.
I will leave quietly now.
