Sorry Wrong Number

I feel bad for something that I did a couple of days ago. I was enjoying my day off. I decided that I needed the day to myself. So I worked out and ran errands. Nothing exciting. I really needed a day like that. I didn't want any obligations to anyone. Well right after I worked out I ordered carry out from a favorite restaurant in my neighborhood.

As I entered to pick up my food I could clearly see that a very intoxicated man was also picking up his food. (Keep in mind I had just worked out so there was NOTHING pleasant about my appearance) The very drunk guy proceeded to let me know how much he loved me and how beautiful I was. He then I asked me for my number. I was actually horrified. The restaurant was busy, he was talking loud because he was drunk, and all I wanted to do is go home. Remember all I wanted is a day to myself. Since everyone in the restaurant was now looking including the staff. I decided to be nice and give him my name and number. Knowing very well that I was going to give him the wrong number. I decided a long time ago that I wasn't going to do that. I know it is rude. I found myself doing something that I would hate having done to me. Honestly, I should have just said no, but I thought the situation was embarrassing enough.

I know honesty is the best policy. I just couldn't believe the scene it was turning into. I am sure I will run into him again because that is how my luck goes. I do feel bad for the person who could be receiving a call from the drunk guy. It is never a dull moment.
