So, last Wednesday a group of us went out for wings and some drinks. At one point during the evening a friend of mine told me that I'm chaos but wouldn't tell me why. I talked to him this morning and this is what I learned:

Apparently I am "totally chaos" as "some of the boys were butting egos over [my] attentions. Nothing serious, but quite amusing to watch."

My comment to him was that it's probably more amusing for him to watch as half the time I'm oblivious to things like that.

His response: "I think that's part of the charm, and part of the problem. You are very innocently open, forward, and friendly. It's easy for a guy to mistake that as interest. You don't mean it though, so foul."


This amuses me. I'm not leading anyone on or anything, at least not intentionally, it's just who I am. I'm friendly, flirtatious, and likely more open than a lot of people generally are. Flirting is fun and I don't really think they mind. My guy was there and he's not the jealous type anyway, so it's all good. :)
