I went bowling with a new friend and her sister and her friends tonite. Everything was going well. At the end of the evening, I couldn't find my sneaker, so I was jokingly saying whether she took my sneaker. I was joking that I couldn't drive home without them because I could get into an accident if my toes get pinched by something barefooted. I looked around a bit more, and then I guess my tone got a little bit serious..when I said " did you really take my shoe"? She then said whether these sneakers where some sort of high-tech, expensive shoes. Her sister's bf then pointed them out underneath a nearby chair. I then apologized to her and said that I was just joking twice.

We then made small talk about getting home and parting ways for that evening. I left in my car wondering whether I made a bad mistake coming off like I was accusing her of taking my shoes. I then texted message her with my cell phone then saying "thanks for the evening (her name)". A few seconds later she called me back and we talked on the phone for like 15 minutes. I told her that sometimes I get too excited over things sometimes ( without saying outright that I was not trying to accuse of her of stealing my shoes). So basically we left the convo on happy terms...she wanted to listen to some music until she got home.

I just want to hear from anyone who has positive feedback. I get paranoid over things when it comes to other peoples' feelings. I wanted to be liked and make other people feel liked too. :)

Everything's obviously fine, man. Don't be a wuss about it. :p

I know how you feel, though. I'm extremely candid and outgoing, and I'll replay what are probably insignificant events in my head over and over if I think I annoyed someone, even if it wasn't a big deal.

$5 bucks he pulls an American Pie and can't "contain" himself the first time he touches her.

If you ever mention or apologize about the shoes again you can be assured that she'll think you're a psycho.

Quit obsessing, really.

Thanks, you are right ... that's why I didn't. I made sure so by text messaging her on the cell phone...then her calling me..then us talking for 15 minutes and asking her if everything is okay...and her replying that yes indeed everything is okay. I knew that the correct thing to do is not to bring it up or else I would appear like a pyscho. I already told them that I was joking twice. :)


But seriously, thanks for all for making me lighten up over this :)

I was in a car once with a girl driving and three other guys. Just out of the blue, for no reason I asked: "When you give birth, can I keep your puppies?" The girl had this shocked look on her face, it was priceless. The guys couldn't believe it, and they were trying not to laugh. I profusely apologized...and now we're very good friends. Even 3 years later.
