When courtesy tends to s.tupidity

Hey! Last night it was party night for me and my class. We went to this freezing place(i guess it was about 15ºC..... i am not able to make the convertion right now... so u guys do it.... quite a bad selection for that kind of party... but we couldn't ask more to the s.tupid guys that organized everything). Party was great for the first minutes.... everything was nice... cold beer, music and other stuff filled environment and we were having fun.... or at least most of us... it was then when I decided to leave the dancing part of the party to go and check what was happening in the other room. As I entered everything was clear... this was the section were the d.runken a.ssess were.... All that people I have never cared of... (or I have cared too little for it to matter) were in the most pathetic states of ethylic intoxication.

I got to admit that seeing some of these people in that state was fun... but seing some others wasn't... because maybe they were nice to me... or just because i knew them enough to know that they weren't happy to be seeing in that state... or just maybe cause I cared a little for them... or maybe more than a little...

Well, the point is that in the end... I had to help some of them.... and it was just because i felt to... well, one of these persons that moved me to help them was this g.irl, i guess i have only talked to her like five times in my whole life... but i really like her... well she was there... a little bit drunk, crying because of someone she really loves, and completely freezing because of her little non-sleved shirt. Then I came to think: "Hey! it would be nice for someone to give his sweater/jacket to her, since she really needs it more that most guys around here." D.amn! I was one of those guys who really didn't need it. Ok, it was clear: for pure courtesy i had to give her my jacket, and so I did.

WHAT IN THE BLUE H.ELL WAS I THINKING!!!!! I MEAN THAT PLACE WAS FREEZING, IT COULDN'T BE COLDER FOR THE PLACE WE WERE ON.

Right, sometime after that I saw she was alone.... I went to her.. I huged her to let her know I was trying to support her. Sometime after she realized she had my jacket and that even though I was freezing I was there with her. She asked for a friend of her to get her a blanket, and she gave me back my beloved jacket.

The whole point is that, why are we men just that s.tupid from time to time to give up things we need to somebody else? I mean... i am not saying it was wrong, or that it wasn't nice... or that I didn't felt good to be nice to her... but we got to admit it was kind of s.tupid

However... my own nature perdures... I'm the nice guy... the one that is "s.tupid" enough to give someone he cares of what they need even when it means he has to do a sacrifice for that.
