There was a place in the East Village that I was sure Ms. P and I had been to. She swore we hadn’t until that moment. We mostly joked about it, and I figured it was a mutual friend who I hung out with some before Ms. P and I started dating (we actually met at this friend’s birthday party).
Do guys get upset when a woman claims she went somewhere, did something with you, but it wasn't you?
Wisdom.
40 year-old straight guy here and I wouldn’t care at all, but it took me about 38 years (had a lot of insecurity and jealousy issues) to get there. I constantly have platonic female friends trying to make me jealous and they are stunned by my non-reaction. Same goes for romantic entanglements. At this point I expect pretty much everyone to have done a lot of stuff with a lot of people, whatever.
Yep! The poi was a little tangy, but still sweet and the poke was extra spicy just how I like it! 
Oops…see Mr. Cairo coming! Gotta go! 
Never really thought too hard about it, was always flummoxed by her reaction, but maybe deep down that’s what it was. We actually saw the girl a few times before and before that moment I thought about going back by myself just to see her, but after the blowup, I figured I better not as my friend lived close by. We continued to go there for ice cream, but I never saw her again.
BTW, the guy wasn’t my type or my friend’s either!
I still don’t understand why you didn’t want her to see you twice. Especially if you wanted to go back ‘just to see her’. (Hitting on the sales clerk is generally a very bad idea, by the way, if that’s what you meant by that comment.)
Female-type person weighing in. I had an ex do this to me once, and then realize half-way through the reminiscence. He was seriously worried and apologetic. I said something to the effect of “So, you’re beginning to re-write your past memories to include me? I love it when a plan comes together!!” And we both laughed ourselves silly.
And that’s exactly the way I see it. When we begin to see someone as our future, they can also sort of start to fill in to our past as well. That’s how memory works. “Person who is my partner and I, did X” and now - in your mind - that person is me? Excellent.
