I'm NOT thankful for idiots.

Hello, readers.

I know you all have been dying to know the rest of my "love" story. I can imagine you sitting there checking your Google Reader (Best. Thing. Ever.) every 3 minutes to get an update on this very important matter. Because I love you so much and because I don't want you to keep waiting until after Thanksgiving, here is part 3. Part 1 and 2, if you need to catch up.

Part 3 can actually be summed up in 3 words:

HE NEVER CALLED.


Or I can tell it in a few lot more words:

On Sunday morning, I was expecting some sort of wake up text but I never got it so at around noon I sent him a very casual "Hope you have a good day at work." Two (TWO!!) hours later he responded "Thank you. Have a great day". Ugh. If I wanted to hear those words I would have gone to my local Walmart. So I got pissed and ignored him for the rest of the day. I thought maybe he'd get the hint and behave a bit better on Monday.

No such luck. He never texted, never called. Nothing. I decided two can play that game so I ignored him the whole day.

By Tuesday I did what any normal, rational girl would do: Over analyzed it. I played our phone conversation, texts and date over and over and tried to see if maybe I had made up the fact that he liked me. I also asked my gay bff at work what he thought and he said "I don't know what to tell you. At this point, it's all up to him. Send him one last very casual text and then wait and see." So I did that. I sent him a "Hey! how are you" text to which he responded "Hey babe! Where have you been?" Fuck me. Was he serious? Where have I been? I have been waiting for him to write! What does he mean where have I been? Ugh. He then asked about my day, I answered and asked him about his and then he stopped answering.

On Wednesday I sent him one last text message "Hey! Hope you have a good day today". He answered about five hours later with a text that said "I'm sorry. My phone was off." That was it. I was SO mad. Livid, actually. Who the hell does this? If a guy reaaaaalllly likes you, isn't he supposed to be all over you like white on rice? At that point I thought to myself, "Self, he's just not that into you. Move the fuck on. Next!"

So that was that. I deleted his number from my phone and all his texts and calls so I wouldn't be tempted and decided that if HE wanted to talk to ME, he would make the effort.

Of course, he hasn't.

Ugh. I hate dating. Why are all the crazies/douchebags/idiots attracted to me? Better yet, why am I attracted to them?

Male readers, if you read this whole post you deserve a BJ from your significant other. Also, if you read this whole post and have an answer to this mystery then by all means ENLIGHTEN ME.

Female readers, you know I love y'all. If you made it this far you deserve a significant other who will cook, wash the dishes and NOT ask for BJ's when you're not in the mood. If you have any answers, let me know.


Sorry if this post is all over the place and poorly written (aren't they all?). I have been helping my mom with Thanksgiving preparations and we accidentally drank a whole bottle of wine. Oops.

Deutlich said...

dude. an acquaintance of mine pulls that shit and it PISSES me off to NO end.

I suggest letting bygones be bygones and just.. forget he exists.

I was NOT expecting it to turn out like this.

Kali said...

What in flying fuckland....??!!??

Okay.. I believe this can be summed up in one word:

Boysareassholesitis.

Its what he's got. Obviously.

brookem said...

ughhh. im not thankful for that idiot to be in your life either!
im sorry you had to deal with all this, especially that it put a damper on the holiday!
you deserve a guy to be all over you like white on rice. dude doesn't know what he's missing out on.
hang in there lady...

JerseySjov said...

he's either never going to call you ever or he's going to call you in like 2 weeks and make you even crazier.

i just read your whole blog, btw.
and im gonna add you to my 'blogs i read' list bc i have to know what happens next!

Matt said...

You shouldn't over analyze these things. The simplest explanation is probably the correct one.

and I am going to ask around for that BJ and tell the girls you said I deserve it...so just be expecting that.

Katelin said...

ugh boys are so lame sometimes. but you're still awesome.

Alexa said...

BASTARD!

Mike said...

You can't help being attracted to douchebags. You're young, it's in your nature.

Just make sure you marry one that isn't a douche. Being married to one gets real messy.

Good luck!

I have totally been there before! After my boyfriend and I brokeup (6 years down the drain, i guess Beyonce was right about that whole put a ring on it thing) I was devistated, so to help my self-esteem I went on a dating site where I met a amazing guy who I shared a lot in common with, plus him being hot was not bad. We emailed forever and a day, when I finally met him we had a great date, and you wanna know what happened after that? NOTHING! I was pissed, and I refuse to date anymore. It's to confusing, and a waste of time. Stupid guys and their stupid balls in their stupid court.

That sucks! I just read the prior parts to this story, and it is unbelievable! You deserve better.

Therapeutic Ramblings said...

Good news: You'll meet a lot of guys.
Bad news: You live in S. FL, dating is a jungle down here.

Go out and have fun with friends, as worrying about dating will make you go crazy...and there are enough crazy people down here.

Anyone happen to know who Secret Dubai (the blogger: secretdubai.blogspot.com) is?

I'm going to print this out and have you sign it so I can cash in that BJ.

And guys are idiots. I'm sorry. I used to try to defend us but we are idiots. We act like we are the shit until it comes to being a man and just saying whether we are interested or not. It's pathetic.

Donny Ruth said...

Actually, I would highly recommend just dating a Walmart greeter. They are pleasant and attentive to your needs. They are also very old most likely. But hey can't beat those discounts am I right?

(I'm right.)

Warmest Regards,

To all you broken record sycophantic bandwagon jumpers screaming bloody murder: The lady asked for enlightenment, not ass kissing.

On your way to find the love of your life you'll inevitably meet men who are not going to be him. When you do meet these "misses" or deadbeats it's not the end of the world. Stop putting all your pretty little eggs in one basket all the time. And about the white on rice thing, some great relationships start slower or as friendships. Be careful you don't think you're entitled to something the doesn't exist like love at first site or instant devotion. Life's full of hiccups and stumbles, just try to have fun with yourself during the whole rat race. Also, kinda like what Matty said, no intimate relationship in the history of humanity has ever profited from a single person's overanalysis of it.

Lindsey said...

Honey, (Christian) you told her to not put all her eggs in one basket. I remember that saying, when you said it to me at the beginning of our courtship (courtship- hmm that sounds dorky). Anyways, that one little sentence to me, made for damn sure that I made you work for ALL of my eggs. (See ladies, guys DO want to have to work for it)

Now, for Douchegirl, everything that Christian said is correct, but I would have to add that I think he's just not that into you. I stole that from that dude that wrote that book. Have you read it?

That said, a guy that is all over you like white on rice would be seriously annoying and you wouldn't be attracted to him anyways..But the guy that doesn't respond to your texts and doesn't make contact with you, well he's not the guy either.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go give a blow job.

Lady Luck said...

Make up your mind right now that you're just not that into him. No one can make you feel like shit without your consent. Recognize how fucking fabulous you are and you will attract someone that feels the same way.

I've been there. OH....I've been there...

Fuck him. He sucks.

You're only 20. Chalk it up to experience and move on with someone hotter and better at CALLING, NOT texting.
