11. He’s Too Competitive
I was at my girlfriend’s house for a family cookout and everyone got together for a game of backyard touch football. Needless to say, it was probably a bad idea because any sport I ever play, I’m extremely competitive. Her father led her with a pass & I was playing linebacker, going after any mid-long passes. Well I ran straight towards her to knock the ball away and we ran into each other but I pretty much shouldered her to the ground, not meaning too. I didn’t really even feel it other than the hit itself, she was on the ground with the breath knocked out of her. Her dad wasn’t happy but he didn’t say anything bc he could tell it was an accident. Later that night, after she recouped and we were cuddling, I apologized, kissed her on the forehead and then said “You have to admit though, that was a perfect play…” I dialed it back in group games after that.
