Rico Suave


"How are you baby? How you doin'? Hope you doin' good... Ahh, I jus call you to say hi an, ah, to let ju know that the pichure didn' ah, wen thru... So, I coming back tomorrow. Uh, if you can try to get in toush with me, okay?.. I send you a big kiss an a big hug, k mami? Beso (insert kissing sound here)... mmmm, grande... Que cosia amor... madonna mia, more mio, monta bella."

No, there are absolutely zero typos above. This was a message left by Rico Suave and I keep this message saved purely for entertainment purposes. If anyone ever wants to listen to it, I'd be more than happy to share!

I think he was trying to, ahem, win points with me? By throwing in some fractured Italian? Well, it didn't exactly work. The message in its entirety was just a bit over the top, if you ask me, and made it a turn off. Awfully amusing though...

Ah, yes, the pichure. He had wanted me to send him a photo of myself via cell phone, so I'd be with him all the time, I guess. I thought it was strange, so I didn't send anything.

I met Rico Suave about 3 years ago, and about 2.5 years ago he appeared to take an interest in me. Mexican from Mexico City, not that tall but his muscles compensated for what he lacked in height. Slicked back hair... and he always makes sure to wear fitted shirts with a few buttons undone. It's either that or some muscle t-shirt, or -gasp!- dare I say a mesh shirt?! NO! He's not gay!

We went out a couple of times but I just wasn't into him. So one night we were practising at a local studio and he was getting way too touchy feely and I had to tell him: "I like dancing with you, but other than that I'm not interested in anything else." Direct and to the point. I felt bad, though, the look in his eyes. He got over it quickly and when I see him around now, it's fun and flirtatious, but that's it.

I should really not give my phone number out so easily...

  1. the whole number thing is awkward .. especially if you don't like the guy but will probably run into him again..or were you thinking you WOULD be into him and then it didn't meausre up? Tricky about the picture..and smart move!
