People Discuss Awkward Positions Someone Else Has Put Them In
#13 Cat-Fished
One of my friends wanted to go on a date with a “super fine girl” from Tinder; however, she had a requirement. Her roommate needed a date too, and if he could find her one she promised him that they could go back to her place early to get intimate.
So my friend came up with this plan, where I would drive all four of us somewhere and after hanging out for some time he would say he needed to go back to “study.” Tinder girl would go with him, saying that she needed to leave too- due to her phone dying. For “convenience”, they would Uber back together.
I’m in full-out belly laughter at this point, but I wanted to go so I could see how this train wreck plays out. So I agree to go through with his plan.
While we’re driving on our way to pick up the girls, he grabs my shoulder and says, “Don’t slow down, and keep driving.”
I realized why he wanted to keep driving. Once we get to the end of the block, I discover that the two girls who were there waiting- were completely different from their profile pictures. We realized that we had just been catfished. I then had to drive my friend home while listening to him call this girl and her friend. It was awkward.
