Hi,

I am new to trp and still pretty much learning the ins and outs of the game and working to improve myself everyday.

So, I was in a situation where a colleague of mine (actually a guy I just met and probably won't meet again, thank God because he was kind of a jerk) told me to do him a small favour and being the nice guy I am, I said sure. So, he told me to pass on his number to this attractive girl who we were chatting about during the day. His circumstances were that he couldn't do it because he was leaving the workplace early and I was staying late. So I definitely could do it for him because I would still be there to chat to the girl later when I see her.

This completely threw me off guard, and in terms of words, I didn't have anything quite articulate to say back to him. But my heart wanted to say something like, "NO I AIN'T A FUCKING CUCK LIKE THAT." I just couldn't come up with something clever to say at the time, so I just told him "no I ain't going to do that, do it yourself." And after a few times of him trying to break me saying things like, "I can't do it myself I am going and I don't know when I will be back here. So why won't you do it for me, what's the problem in that? It's cool." I just ended up repeating the same thing, "nah man do it yourself."

I need your advice guys. I know I did the right thing by refusing to do the deed for him, that's just facts. But was this guy trying to cuck me and what could I have said to him to not make myself look like a tool?

Honestly, I felt so fucking offended when he asked that to me because first of all, he's not a friend or someone familiar I know. I literally just met the guy for the first time and we were just engaging in some small talk during the day, nothing big. In fact I was the guy who was trying to engage the conversation with him. I always try to be the guy who talks to everyone and I try to bring positive energy to whoever I am engaging with. During our conversations he didn't seem to feel like I am worthy enough to talk to, and would very rarely acknowledge anything I say let alone respond (you know, the I'm too busy for you, cold, emotionless type). I can already sense he was disrespecting me. So after all that, I already knew that this guy is full of himself and is a fucking prick. But then he disrespects me, by asking him to pass on his number to this girl?

And the ironic thing about it is, I am the one who was trying to talk about the girl and bringing her up. He very rarely had anything to say about her when I would mention her.

Guys help! What would you have done in this situation? And it makes me wonder whether I should even open myself up to people at all? Very rarely do I meet people like this. But when it happens I just don't know how to handle them? Please help
