not that he said he would contact me by now. I just thought, hey weekend, thats a good time to go for coffee, isn't it?

Am i being a wally, in thinking he might have meant it?

we chatted loads last friday at the school thing. I said that he sounded pretty content bieng single at, to which he replied 'oh no i still want to go out sometime'

when sometime tho, arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

thats twice he has metnioned going out, once in the text before we got chatting, and once when put on the spot, well once when fed the line i had to feed.

oh god, i hate men. (blubs) i wannnnnaaaaa date.

he seems like a good bloke, all the kids love him, those i know who know him say he's shy.

yet he has said he isn't sure about getting into anything so soon after his breakup. But if he really was interested he would , wouldn't he. I mean i could have half a dozen waitng for a date ala pirate, for all he knows.

oh, just the thought of antoher boring night in this weekend, just makes me miserable.

thanks.

just had to vent.

well good for you....he obviously has no spine to speak of has he???

delete his number and dont let this stop you from putting yourself out there again

men are just genetically made this way......you are not to blame for it, it really is his loss.

As for me im in the exact same boat....he MSNed me earlier to tell me he was pissed of.....because i care anyway i told him i was busy, asked could he come and see me.....NOPE.....im not interested...i didnt want anything but a casual thing anyway

fawkeoff · 23/07/2008 17:12

he is being an arse.....its stupid o clock in the morning right now and he has been sending me texts.......saying he is ok "why are u telling me that?????"

"because you texted me"

OH NO I DID FUCKING NOT!!!!!!!!!!

in fact what u should have done is text back and told him i was busy with my other friend

i always have a back up lol !!!!!!!!!!

piratecat · 24/07/2008 10:41

a backup lol!

any more weird texts today so far?

I stupidly thought a text i got was fromhimthis morning. I do HATE the spinelessness of all this. He was the one who was saying I'd been brave to approach him.

or was i just stupid. i feel stupid now.

well dont feel stupid about it.....he is a wanker for not being straight with you.....but men dont like confrontations, they cant deal with emotions, or women so they shit out and behave like utter nobs

nope no more texts from him, my phone was on the table when he got this supposed text .....why would i lie about sendin him a text tho!!!!!!!!!

im deletin his number and blockin him from msn.....i will see him, we have mutual friends....but i am very good at acting as though nothing has happened.....which i think will piss him off even more lol

littlewoman · 24/07/2008 11:51

Fuck 'em,

fuck 'em all,

fuck 'em in the ear.

Plennnnnty more where he came from.

The end.

fawkeoff · 24/07/2008 12:16

think i need to just be not doin this myself right now!!!!!!!!!

i dont want a relationship any time soon....so theres not much good to come out of casual sex.....apart from that

littlewoman · 24/07/2008 12:24

OOh, you misinterpret me (but secretly think you are kidding)

I meant bolleaux to them, I did not literally mean fark them. (Don't do the bastards any favours )

fawkeoff · 24/07/2008 12:28

oh no i understand sweetie

i just dont know what to do anymore LOL

littlewoman · 24/07/2008 12:41

I think you are doing exactly the right thing, fawkeoff.

Not getting straight into another relationship. Learning from the past. Learning what is and is not acceptable to you, based on what you have been through, and working out what will be deal breakers for you in the future.

Some lessons are really crap, and if it was optional we wouldn't attend, right?
But if we engage with the lesson, however much we don't want to be there, we learn stuff, we understand it, we come out mildly surprised that we lived through something we were dreading.

Just keep going, and wait for the bell at the end of the lesson

fawkeoff · 24/07/2008 12:59

very wise words there LITTLEWOMAN

i just want to be me,myself and i right now.....there is nothing wrong with that....think im trying to run before i can walk really and i think i really need to take a back seat and re evaluate things, i think i need to learn to be happy in myself before i embark on any more disasters lol

littlewoman · 24/07/2008 13:09

Yes, you are still in the early days stage, fawkeoff.

When the emotions settle down a bit, you will remember who you used to be, you'll be glad to see that person again, and you'll be armed with life's lessons, so you never get robbed of your own personality again.

Don't fight it, roll with it, if you can.

Disasters ... they can wait

piratecat · 24/07/2008 17:22

my gut instinct after not being contacted was to tell him i was pissed off and i did.

i have spent yrs being 'told' how to react towards to my ex and his crap, by my ex. I just thought, no, i will have my say.

If you don't like it stuff it, that's who i am.

To thine own self be true, PC.

Don't know where that quote comes from, but it's true. If you are as straight up as you can be without purposely giving offence, I don't think people can ask much more.

Good for you, standing up for yourself.
