Night & Day
Rock n' Roll Doggie, Band-aid
Theres a certain band i've been listening to for about 4 years, and i really, really love their music.
The music is young and deep, thought provoking, yet fun.
I wrote the band an email via MySpace,
and expressed my joy in the music and how it has helped me through some rough spots in my life, etc...
The member responding was extremely nice and humble.
He was genuinely sincere and grateful for my input and thanked me for listening and being a fan.
We exchanged a few emails, and encouraged one another with some personal issues that came out of those emails.
Very innocent stuff, no harm done.
Late last night, i was replying to an email and he asked if i had AIM, and asked if i wanted to talk.
I got on and at first he was really cool and gentlemanly, i thought how great is this...im talking to someone i really admire and dig.
But then he started getting sexual, asking me what it thought about certain positions and acts.
I told him that i wasnt some gooey teenager looking to hook up with him,
but i was a grown woman that takes intimacy seriously,
and i wasnt going to be pulled in by his celebrity.
He told me that he thought i was hot and was very interested in me sexually.
It was like a total 360 from who he was in emails.
I just told him i enjoyed his music, and thanks for his prior kindness,
but i was going to leave the conversation, and i signed off.
He later emailed me and apologized, but i am just kind of dissapointed with it all.
Ill still listen, because they really are a great band, one of my all time faves,
but i wont ever be able to listen without thinking of some of the things he said.
Has any one else had a dissapointing encounter with a 'celebrity', such as this?
