Ok so the date/nondate guy...(names have been changed or have they?? )
2 wknds ago it was my birthday. Things were fine. Kids were gone we spent all wknd together. So his friend Tia was like hey Mandy just broke up with Todd. blah blah blah...ok so we are sitting at the fights on my BIRTHDAY talking about HER...yay fun. blah blah blah...talk..talk...talk...Wednesday rolls around Chris & I go to lunch. He tells me that Mandy (she is the ex who suddenly a year ago moved back to Portland) is coming to Tia's house for Karaoke on Thurs night & going to the Hog on Friday night with them. Ok no problem. I am not the jealous girl. We have an understanding we haven't labeled our relationship. So Thursday nite he texts. Friday night/Saturday morning he sends me a text saying that he misses me. yada yada. Sweet.
So then we talk Saturday morning. Well Saturday night when I get back to the room I check in online at school & go on FB and myspace(have I ever mentioned I love my Blackberry?? well I do!!
). Well his status says something like, I miss the Rulebreaker (aka me)...& I am texting MJ..(her)....so ok whatdoyado? I just put my phone down and went to bed since I had to get up at the butt crack for the Segway tour. So while I am waiting for the CM to get us, I login on my blackberry & his status now says, I wish I was cuddling with Mandy Jo.... I was ticked. Mostly because when I woke up he had sent me a few texts. And then this. Well I just blew it off. Besides I was having a child free weekend in
Disneyland & I was not going to let petty stuff ruin my fun!!
Sunday on my way to the airport he sends me a text saying have a safe flight yada yada.
Since Sunday we have talked a few times. Last night (over myspace)...he
messages me. At first it is general chit chat. Then he said did you notice I changed my picture? Well DUH! It is her w/ him.
He just said that was from Friday night. Said that is was Mandy. She has moved back to the area. Her & I have been texting a lot since then (Friday). there are still some feelings there & we are gonna hang out occasionally.
I really do like you. I enjoy spending time with you. The last 3 months have been great. But I am not sure about this thing with Mandy. Where we are headed. I just know I have had this thing for her forever. On Friday night it was even more clear. I never meant to hurt you. I am very sorry.
I have been trying to find a way all week to say this. I wanted to say it in person but I didn't want to see the hurt in your face.
If you have any questions please ask.
So I responded with...
ummm..ok. I sort of figured when I saw your status comments over the weekend.
Questions...I am not sure I have any.
He responded with....
I am sorry about that. I drunken myspaced that night. I really do & did enjoy spending time with you. This was really unexpected and has turned things upside down.
I would still like to be friends. I mean who else is going to understand our crazy inside jokes. Or appreciate a 1000 ways to die like I do??
Or understand the crazy girl magnet? However, you are not one of the crazy
of the crazy girls. You suprised me & ended up being this beautiful, amazing, smart, doesn't take anyones crap, kick *** girl. Who I hope I haven't ruined a great friendship with. My friends really do like you & hope that you continue to hang out with us.
Again I wish things would have been different.
I Just said.
Well things happen.
Friends of course.
BUT REMEMBER I DO NOT PLAY 2ND BEST TO ANYONE.
He replied with...
again I am so sorry. I never meant to hurt you.
My repy..
Its fine. Things happen. I am glad you were able to be up front and honest.
So this means I can go after Steve-O right??
Jus kidding..I am not like that...or am I??
So thats the short version. Although it isn't all that short.
My BFF was like you have way more class & abilty to hold back than I do. I would have ripped him a new one.
So I dunno...boys are just dumb!!
