He agrees to a date with the company’s most overlooked woman just to dodge a lonely Christmas, but by the night’s end, he uncovers what’s really been eating at him

He Agrees To Date The Most Rejected Woman To Avoid Spending Christmas Alone, But By The End Of The..

Tyler was known for his charismatic personality and charming demeanour. At 32 years old, with tousled hair and piercing eyes, he attracted attention wherever he went. His laid-back appearance and easy smile hid a complicated family history that made him avoid serious commitments and festive dates.

From a young age, Tyler distanced himself from family celebrations. The memories of the tumultuous Christmases of his childhood still haunted him. He preferred to spend the holidays in bars or at parties with friends, seeking superficial fun to fill the emptiness he felt.

William had been his best friend and co-worker for years. The two would always go out together on every festive occasion, enjoying the single life without getting attached to anything or anyone. But things were changing.

That week, the office was buzzing with the anticipation of Christmas. People were talking about trips, dinners and family reunions. Tyler, on the other hand, already had something in mind.

Another night out with William. Two days before Christmas Eve, he approached his friend with enthusiasm at the end of another workday. Hey, Will, you won’t believe it.

I found a new bar that’s going to be the hit of Christmas night. Amazing place, live music and, of course, lots of beautiful women. We have to go, buddy, Tyler said excitedly, patting his friend on the shoulder.

William smiled, but his smile was different this time. There was a hint of embarrassment in his eyes. Man, it sounds awesome, but… Remember that girl I told you about, Rachel? Things have gotten serious between us.

He tried to hide his disappointment with a nervous laugh. Oh, I see. So you’re going to tie the knot, is that it? He teased, half joking, half resentful.

William laughed, trying to ease the situation. It’s not like that, man. But life changes, you know.

Maybe one day you’ll understand. Still incredulous, Tyler shrugged and pretended not to care. After saying goodbye, he tried to repeat the invitation to other friends, sending messages and even stopping by some desks at the office.

However, the response was always the same. Everyone already had commitments, dinners with family, romantic dates or planned trips. For the first time, Tyler realized that while he remained stagnant in his lifestyle, the people around him were moving on…
