Was I rude, disrespectful or out of line? I was sitting at the outside bar last night, when a lady-friend?

came over an sat down on the stool next. She was turned with her back halfway facing me. She passed wind, long, juicy with the smell of a combo of rotten eggs and a skunk. I said woo, gaged a little, got up and went to the men’s room. She sent a really nasty e-mail this morning. What is it that I did wrong?
And what part of the situation was hers?
Gag reflexes, are not always under our control are they?
She was the one who did the wrong thing and she has compounded it by chastising you.
Yes, you could have been a little more gentle in the reaction. I am assuming that you didn’t yell out the "Whoah!!". But as far as I can see, she is the one who should have emailed you with an apology. Then you could graciously, say, "No, no, it is my fault because I over reacted!"….mustering up all the graciousness you can manage! đŸ™‚
Then it would have been easy. She has made it difficult to deal with. Just bite the bullet and use the social white lie and take the responsibility. It will add to your halo as a good person, rather than arguing with her over who’s fault it was!
Best of luck.
were u drunk coz thats being disrespectful…
You should have acted like a gentleman and ignored the odour!
Drawing attention to a womans gaseous expulsions really is not the thing to do!
That is sorta respectful. Whenever I get drunk I’m still cool enough to fart in private or in the bathroom.
What an aweful experience! lol
Well… these are delicate social matters. In my opinion, you could have just turned quickly and made your way to the men’s room without saying anything. But, sometimes these things catch us by surprize and our instincts cannot be contained. She shouldnt have emailed you about it though. I cant imagine why she’d want to bring more attention to herself in these less then favorable circumstances.
Either way, I think you should just pretend it never happened.
Well, if someone doesn’t smell too nice, I wouldn’t comment on it. Some people may have difficulty with their own body odour and as much as we may not like it, it’s best to just say nothing and leave when you can.
Sometimes it’s very embarrassing for people and it’s best to let them be in peace.
She was the rude one she shouldn’t have passed gas like that.
