So how did I get an 18 year old girl, who was crying and screaming profanities at me one minute to be the first person that I had sex with in a car, all in the span of about two hours?
I am a wizard, that's how.
To be fair, I need to start with why she was crying and screaming at me.
It was June, 1993. I had just turned 18 in April and her in March. I know, older women. I still have a thing for them to this day. School was out and every day the conversation led to what to do that night. In the city that we lived in, some of the nightclubs opened up during the week for "High School Kids." A "no alcohol" kind of night. Keep kids off the streets, shit like that.
Let me just start by saying that things of this nature aren't my scene. I don't enjoy the loud music, dancing, and all that comes along with it. I just don't like people that much. To this day, I keep my circle small because people in groups suck.
That's another thing that I tell my wife now all the time. I hate doing things in groups. The reason is that no one can ever agree on anything. They all want to do what they want to do and fuck what you want to. Maybe I don't want to do what they want to do, but in the effort of being part of a damn group, I have to. So I keep my circle small. I always have.
I guess it was Tuesday about five o'clock when I the phone rang, "Hello?"
"Hey, it's me."
Her name was Karen and she was my girlfriend.
"Hey, what are you doing?" I replied.
"I just wanted to see what you had planned tonight," She inquired.
"I don't know. I was going to see if you wanted to go for a ride later."
Going for a ride was code for:
Do you want to go somewhere and fool around
.
"I was thinking about going to see what Brian and Angela were doing and maybe going to hang out with them," She replied.
Brain and Angela were friends of ours. Check that, Brian was a friend of mine and Angela was a friend of hers. I didn't care for Angela very much and lord knows that she didn't care for me at all. Brian and I had made the cardinal sin, we started dating girls that were best friends. These bitches even designed their own language so that they could talk about Brian and I right in front of our faces. Whores!
I didn't want to go out with them because I knew what they were going to do. They were going to one of the aforementioned clubs call
The Edge.
It was "Teen Night" and like I said before, not my scene. Besides, all that they were going to do was sit around and talk about how Brian and I couldn't hold our wad longer that a commercial break and who needs that kind of negativity in their life?
Trying not to be a total dick, I replied, "Yeah, I'm not going to do that. Go if you want. I guess I'll just stay here and wash my dick."
"Why don't you want to go out with them?"
"Because it's the same old fucking thing," I replied. "We're going to get there, you guys are going to do your girl thing. Brian and I are going to want to leave. You guys are going to accuse us of not having a good time on purpose. I am going to call you a cunt and you're going to break up with me until you are horny again."
If you thought that was bad, you haven't read anything yet.
I could feel her anger building up through the phone as she said, "Well, I'm going."
Nothing for the cunt comment?
"You do that," I told her, "and I will be here going through my little black book of chicks that will actually blow me."
Yeah, I said that shit
.
Her anger was flowing through the phone now accompanied by a higher voice level, "You know, you're not all that. Angela tells me all the time that I could do much better than you. She tells me that I am wasting my time with someone whose entire goal is to tell jokes on stage. Someone who just wants to shock people when he says words like..."
"Cunt?" I interrupted.
"Do not call me that again?"
"What? Cunt?"
"I am warning you," She offered.
"You don't want to be known as 'Karen the Cunt'? Then with all due respect, shut the fuck up. I'm not going to the club."
There was a long silence on the phone. I don't think she knew quite what to say to that. After about a minute of silence I decided to press my luck and said, "What's wrong? Cunt got your tongue?"
I heard her take a long breath and then in a very low voice she said, "I'll be right over."
There was about a mile in between Karen's house and mine which meant I didn't have much time to prepare. Everything about our relationship was convenient. I met her through a friend that lived around the corner. She lived close. It only took me six months to get into her pants, and once I did, she couldn't get enough. See...convenient.
I thought about what she might say. You see, Karen had a nasty temper. She could subside it most times, but once you unleashed it, there was hell to pay. It was like her crazy was dormant until just the right amount of bullshit brought it out. I knew this because I would usually say about three things a day that got her "Crazy Look" thrown my way. I have to admit, it was kind of fun getting her so worked up. Maybe I just never cared that much about something to get so worked up about it, but it was certainly fun and not much of a challenge to get her to fly off the handle. I expected an epic battle this time. She did not care for that word. I have come to find out, that not many women do, but I just didn't give a fuck back then.
She pulled up in her maroon Ford Mustang and immediately exited the vehicle. I was outside on the steps waiting for her. Not because I didn't want to let her into my house, but because I wanted to see what kind of a show that she would give the neighbors.
The sight of me sitting on the steps must have ignited her because almost immediately upon seeing me she started screaming, "You want to call me a cunt? You want to call me a cunt?"
She was walking very quickly and continued, still screaming, "You have called me a cunt one too many times. Now I am going to show you how much of a cunt I can be!"
"Calm Down. Calm down," I uttered softly, "We have neighbors that have never heard that before. You know, church folk. "
Angrily she looked at me, "What? You don't call them cunts?"
