Boyfriend Drama

Ladies, ladies, ladies. Don 't you just hate it when your boyfriend apologizes on your behalf. It drives me crazy. Okay, so my boyfriend(BF) and I are on our way back from a trip to Los Angeles. We have friends and family there so it turned out to be a wonderful weekend. The day was going by great, I bumped into Tracee Ellis Ross from girlfriends at LAX, I love her so that started my day off right.

So we're starving and we decide to get pizza from california pizza kitchen since that looked like the best thing around unless I wanted a greasy burger with fries from Mickey D's. So I am standing in line to pay for the pizza and for some reason this guy is staring me down and giving the the evil eye. I'm looking to make sure all my clothing is in place and I am not exposing anything. I'm looking around and realize I'm standing in the wrong line so it looked like I was trying to cut the line.

Knowing my boyfriend (I call him the Good Samaritan or Mr. Please the World), he goes quickly to the other line. But I stayed put where I was figuring once he gets to the top of the line, I would join him. So the evil eye guy goes "Are you rushing to catch a flight because if you are you can get in front of me." Oh hell no, he don messed with the wrong black chick. I said fuming " Am I bothering you by standing here, I'm not even in line to pay so what is your problem."

Huffing and puffing, I stormed from the line to take a seat. I see boyfriend (BF) talking to evil eye guy and I figured he's saying he's sorry. So he brings the pizza over and I ask so what did you guys talk about. He says nothing. I'm like seriously what was that conversation about. He say's "oh the guy just asked if you were mad and if you were he's sorry."

I did not believe him because BF approached him first. I took a bite of the pepperoni pizza and at that moment, the pizza tasted like something picked up from the garbage. I threw it in the trash and stormed off with smoke coming out of my head.

Now that I look back it was hilarious because we acted like total strangers while waiting for the flight. We had different seats on the plane but even though I wasn't talking to him, I still negotiated changing seats with the man sitting next to me. We made up even though he claimed he didn't do anything wrong by apologizing for my behavior, like I'm some kid and drifted off to sleep for the 5hr flight we had ahead of us.

Ladies who have had similar experiences, why do our men feel like they have to apologize on our behalf?
