Chapter 5, Breakdown in Breck, Part 2
After Gary's rapacious gawking at my sister's chest, Lauren put up the wall and refused to speak to him.
We all decided to get out of the hot tub because it was awkward AF with Lauren ignoring her misogynist boyfriend while he repeatedly exclaimed:
"It was a JOKE.
I'm not creepy. I'm NOT creepy. I'M NOT CREEPY."
News flash - if you ever feel the urge to convince a group that "you're not creepy" over and over again. There's a 100% chance that you indeed are creepy. So just apologize and be quiet. This is what we kept telling Gary to do.
Hours later, this kid finally apologized to Treslyn but he wouldn't let up with the mantra of
"I'M NOT CREEPY."
Gary approaches me after apologizing to Treslyn, still losing his mind that Lauren isn't speaking to him. I tell him he needs to let it go as his incessant beaking of "I'm not creepy" was just reintroducing the issue that staring at one of his girlfriends best friend’s boobs, IS CREEPY.
Gary then decides it would be a good idea to bring up my boob job.
He had already violated my sister, why not add me into the mix?
Let me give you some context here - my boob job had been a funny topic of conversation Friday & Saturday because it had been a year since I had them done. The girls were playfully telling me "happy boob-aversary" all weekend. None of the men had partaken in the boob-aversary comments because that would have been inappropriate; yet Gary decided to disturbingly barrel forward in this tense moment by bringing up my boobs:
"'I'm not creepy!
It's your BOOB-AVERSARY and I haven't said ANYTHING about that."
Gary steps towards me, bends down and gets mere centimeters away from my chest.
He then starts acting like he's FKING MOTORBOATING ME & slurs:
"It's not like I went, HAAAAPPY BOOB-AVERSARY ALISHAAAAAAA"
Gary backs up when my guy friend moves him gently (but firmly) away from me.
I look at Gary utterly revolted:
"GARY.
YOU JUST DID."
Gary then starts saying it's how he didn't faux motorboat me initially that makes him not creepy.
Lord help this grotty excuse of a man.
The night continues on and Gary digs himself in a deeper & deeper hole. At one point, Gary starts circling Lauren on the sofa spitting through his teeth:
"i hate you. i hate you. i hate you."
This is easily one of the most disturbing displays of behavior I have ever witnessed. We all told Gary to be quiet and to go to bed.
Gary then decides he's going to drive home to Denver from Breckenridge, in a blizzard - WASTED - at 12am. The guys in the house block Gary from leaving and scream at him to go to bed.
Lauren was hiding from Gary at this point in one of our friend’s bedrooms. Gary then begins texting her, accusing her of having a threesome with the others in the room & saying how disgusting she is.
Everyone goes to bed.
Gary drives home drunk in the snow at 3am while everyone is asleep.
In the morning, Lauren tells everyone she's going to break up with Gary. She texts me the following on her ride home:

Lauren and I continue texting:
What happened next you ask?
Lauren - the unmistakable idiot she has now proven herself to be time & time again - stays with Gary.
Gary never apologizes for what transpired.
Lauren never apologizes for what transpired.
We didn’t know this at the time - but by God’s good grace, thank you Jesus! - we would never have to see Gary again. Unfortunately, we would have to endure Lauren for a couple more months before being rid of her.
To Be Continued.
