[quote Onesmallstep67]@VanGoghsDog, how’s things going with Mr WG? Have you been able to see any more of him recently? Has Mr Decorator stayed in touch?
@Isitreallyme177, well done for 6months NC with Mr CG. I would suggest deleting all photos or at most keep one as bella suggested. I find happening upon random pics in my photo roll a bit unsettling and personally in general I prefer to look forward not back. You’ve done the hard work and he doesn’t really deserve much more of your headspace.[/quote]
Well.....
MrWG has got on my nerves and I'm not talking to him. I doubt he's noticed though!
He has this "thing" about coming over Wednesday lunchtimes. Three weeks ago I had a cold, sister and her dog her (though she went out) so I asked him over to just walk away he dog with me, which he did and hung around a couple of hours chatting and having coffee.
Roll on the following Wed, he's nervous to use fuel as he has a long drive and a site throat, fine. So I phone him for a catch up (I'm kind like that). Got pissed off because I could hear him typing in the background, so said goodbye, not in a pissy way. Then didn't hear from him for a week. Texted him following Tue (the one just gone) to check in, as it's nearly Wed again (I'm actually not down with this Wed thing tbh) he replies "am in a meeting", then "tired and almost out of fuel" (getting excuse in early), then "weekend was good but long drive" (yeah, that can happen when you drive from the midlands to Scotland, no surprise). I didn't bother to respond.
Wed texts to say "running on fumes and cold has got worse so not heading over". I didn't bother to respond.
I'd like it if he sounded disappointed, or picked up the phone to me. Or kept in touch a bit more (I have told him that last one)
Then Fri he texts "cold turned into cough/chest infection. How's your week been?"
I haven't bothered to reply.
Am I being too mean? I find it hard to say anything if I don't really have anything to say. I didn't want to be arsey with him but I need to set out by expectations.
Meanwhile Tinder has been ridiculous, so many one line every three days conversations. One guy asked to meet up, looked ok so I agreed, moved him to WA, he was terrible at responding, so after three days of nothing from him deleted and blocked.
Joined Feeld. Oh my horsey god. Men twenty years younger than me wanting to shag me (apparently).
One married, asked if that was an issue, I told him it was. He chatted a bit then said something like "if we never meet we'll never find out" and I said "so we'll never find out" and got called stubborn. Called him out on it ("a woman asserts her boundaries and you call her names?") and get told it was a perfectly reasonable character analysis which is normal in life and I should get used to it. Then this pass agg shit about how someone must have hurt me and "good luck on these apps". This a guy nearly twenty years younger than me. So I said "talk down to me some more baby it really turns me on", waited til it said read and blocked him. Anyway, I have seven conversations on there currently. Assuming I don't want to shag a child, maybe three look sensible.
Losing my nerve slightly on just shagging though (HRT should start soon which might resolve that).
Other guy from walking group is coming over for take away after walk tomorrow because I can't go out as looking after a dog for someone. I don't fancy him, just friends I think. Hope he's ok with that and doesn't think it's more.
But, on balance I'm feeling a bit flat tbh.
