When you just keep digging

    A woman who works with my other half is currently on leave. Unfortunately her husband has been given 6 to 12 months to live. They have gone on a holiday to Africa because the husband has always wanted to see the Victoria Falls, so they are doing it as a sort of bucket list last wish.

    This led to the hypothetical question being posed to me, what would you like to do if you had 6 months to live. I casually suggested that a threesome would be nice but I got that look that says you should not have said that, trying to rescue the situation I said it didn't have to be a threesome but maybe swinging so we could all have fun, but as I was saying it and before the expletives and name calling started I knew I was just digging deeper.

    So have you ever tried to retrieve a situation only to land yourself deeper in the dodo.

    "Are you OK? You look tired......no, wait, that's not what I mean, you look great, but.................Sh1t"

    There's no way to salvage that one, I make the mistake probably once a week.

    Saying "Have you had your hair done?" or "You smell nice" at random intervals helps.

    No point digging up if she's pissed already. You may as well tell her while you're at it that her arse looks big in her favourite dress.

    "Fine, if you don't want to take part in my threesome you don't have to."

    Leaves room for ambiguity. Bitches love ambiguity.

    Bottom, you're being way to blunt today, how many souls are you going to crush before you relent? On the digging front, I've got a fold up shovel in my back pocket that I carry round everywhere just in case my gob proves to be not up to the task. It has not failed yet, I've dug myself into more holes than Murphys. I get up every day vowing to be nice and friendly and not insulting..and fail. I think it's genetic - some people are big boned, I'm big gobbed.

    I'd say you're always in the dog house with her, this is the shít you think but not say. Unless she previously displayed a wild side of some sort and thought it might be a goer, I wouldn't have said that. When a woman throws you a clanger like that, hmmm and haww until you think like her.

    What she was thinking was 'oh god, imagine I'm about to lose my partner!!!1!! I'd be sooo around him 24/7 until he's gone and I'll never be with another man again'.



    Then you said... well the above. That one wasn't going to end well buddy..

    Not really. I tend to think before I speak ;)

    You could have rescued the situation by saying "I meant a threesome with the dying fellas bird."
