Okay, so, last night, I went to this group dinner with some friends. It's all going good, but as it's going, I kind of get the mental confirmation that yes, I do like this girl I'm eating next to. So later, my university has a compliments page on Facebook. I'm all like, "I'll just post an anonymous confession and then later fess up to posting it - a two step process of interest!" Oh holy mother of all plan backfires.
Next thing I know, the compliments page posts the last of the submitted compliments at like, 12:30 at night, and that ends up on the page sooner than expected. I just decide to ignore it, though it gets something like 10 likes pretty quickly. Some comments wondering who said it (since I blatantly said I'd happily be her boyfriend in the compliment) are posted. At this point, it's about 1am, I'm tired and getting ready for bed.
My roommate gets a text at like, 1:30am, right after I laid down to go to sleep, and one of our mutual friends is asking if he posted it. Seeing how this was kind of going to shit, I just laid there and said without a moment of hesitation that I didn't submit it. I go to sleep, and he doesn't apparently come back for a couple of hours.
I wake up today, and it comes up again AS THE GIRL IS TALKING WITH US and I'm just like
Thankfully we've played a lot of poker the past couple of weeks, so I've remastered my bluffing skills.
There is like, full blown "who did it" among all our mutual friends and I'm pretty sure a guy who definitely didn't post it is going to get stuck in an awkward situation about it and I'm just like fuck this shit I'm keeping my mouth shut.
The moral of the story: If it seems like a bad idea, just be a good liar.
