The Walking Dead (that's a metaphor for this)

[Cabal]

Some of you may remember me from a post a few weeks ago. Short recap; dated girl, girl cheated, girl got caught, girl and guy got together and claimed I was a woman beater to save their reputation, it spread like a plague, ended in a lawsuit, I shut the lawsuit down when I found out they were having a baby.

Here's the new twist. A girl I'm interested in, and vice versa (I think), has asked me to join her tonight in a bar. I just found out for a fact that this guy is going to be there with a bunch of his friends celebrating a birthday.

I've debated trying to get the girl to change venues so we're not in the same place, but that means telling her way too much way too soon (if there's ever a time to talk about an ex). My best friend tells me that instead of rescheduling or something, I should walk in there. He says that all these brain washed morons painting me as a monster are like zombies, basically, spreading infection, and I need to man up and walk in there or she'll go anyway, maybe talk to someone, get infected...

He tells me to man up, go in, and wait for the inevitable, and start knocking myself down some walkers.

Is this a bad plan? :trouble:

Is this just a huge coincidence or are you in a really small social circle? If its the latter, get out of it as soon as possible. The words of a lying, cheating wh*re should fall on deaf ears and it pisses me off to read that they did that to you.

Did you sue them for slander? How did the situation turn out? Depending how it went wi affect what you should do....

You say this place is at a bar.... Do you even need to interact with this guy? Being at the same bar doesn't mean you need to talk... Does this guy have a personal vendetta against you? It seems like the guy just wanted your old girl. Given that the guy is with his friends there's not much you can do to defend your reputation in person.


Rather, people should see you with this new girl, happy to be with you, and see that you clearly aren't beating her. Are you worried he'd go up to the girl and tell her something about you? If he'd do that, and clearly has something against you, just reschedule. As much as I'd like to tell you to literally curb stomp his brains out, the fact that his friends are there means you won't stand a chance. I'm sure you can find an excuse.


Why not take charge, tell the girl that bar sucks and take her to a different one?

Or are you worried deep down that he'll take your woman again? Be honest...

I read your last thread of how you were screwed and lost your job, women, and reputation

So this is what you do: go to the bar with the girl. If the guy says ANYTHING that slanders you bring the lawsuit back under the pretense that they are still slandering you with false things, get all the money you can from this guy and his wife and GTFO out the town.

Who cares if they are having a baby. They ruined your life in so many ways. You can't even go to a bar with a new girl without fear that they will nip your budding romance.
