A blast? Or maybe more of a sucker punch...
Back in 2007 I went to Las Vegas for a couple poker tournaments that I won my way into. A few people that I know won their way into the same set of games, so we all had a blast hanging out in Vegas together. It was lots of fun.
After we got back, I hooked up with one of the women from our group (we will call her A), had sex for the first time since 1995, and then took her on a date a week later where I realized things just wouldn't work out well if I tried to continue things. In December a few of us went to Atlantic City for some other tournaments. A was supposed to be one of us but didn't come along. A week later it was Foxwoods with the same group, A still not included even thogh she was directly invited. A month after that and she wasn't talking to me at all, not even to say hello. She stops playing cards at the same places as me as well.
This weekend I was in Atlantic City for another tournament on Sunday afternoon. I drove down on Friday night and played a hell of a lot of poker at the Showboat casino preparing for the big game. On Saturday evening I suffered a big loss with K-K versus A-A, so I got up and left the table. I walked over to the Taj Mahal to see where the tournament would be held and get an idea of the lay of the land. Satisfied with my excursion I headed back to the Showboat to get into my car and head to my hotel outside of town. I almost stopped at a restroom, but decided against it. I was parked on the 4th level of the garage, but someone else in the elevator was on the 3rd floor, and I was just up the ramp so I decided to walk up to my car. It was here that I saw A driving up the ramp. She rolled down her window and said something I couldn't here over me saying "hello" and all of the other ambient noises. I found this strange, and called my sister to tell her about it while I was getting dinner and back at my hotel room.
After eating and watching some TV I drove back out to the casino. I passed where A had parked on my way up to the 6th floor that I was now parked on. I won $80 that round, and at around 1:00am I headed out to get some sleep. On the way to my car I walked passed all of the slot machines to see if A was around so that I could find out what she said in the garage. She wasn't there so I took the elevator up to the 5th floor to walk up the ramp to my car and see if hers was still there.
Sure enough her car was there, and so was A with some guy. And here is a transcript as close as I can get it:
A: "What are you still doing here?"
Me: "This is where I always come to play cards when I'm down here."
A: "What were you doing wandering around the parking garage earlier?"
Me: "I wasn't wandering. I was on my way to my car like I am now."
A: "Don't you have anything else to say to me?"
Me: "I don't know what else to say to you..."
A: "Well I'm alive still. You can see that, can't you?"
Me: "Yes. Good for you."
A: (cutting me off) "No it's not! It's not good for me."
I forget the next couple of interactions, but she introduced the guy she was with and explained that she was at a concert at the casino. I assume since she was alone when she got there that she met the guy there. I was worried at first that he was a new boyfriend that would try to kick my ass, but as things went on his smile grew wider as he enjoyed the drama playing out in front of him. I think I liked R. He seemed like a good guy.Anyway...
I walked up to my car wondering what had just happened. I think she was grabbing some overnight stuff to have fun with R. She wasn't there anymore when I got back the next morning. I feel like I should call her to see if she is ok, but I also feel like I shouldn't really be interacting with her anymore either. She is almost definitely unbalanced and needs help, but I don't think she would accept it if anyone offered.
My god what a mess...
