I just got off the phone with my friend, Wilf (the engaged one who wanted to have a fling with me [which would have been this week]). I still consider him a friend. Tonight he asked me how things were with Wayne. I said things were going well, and I also mentioned that I wasn't on the market right now for new guys. When he asked, "what about Wayne?" I said, "it's because of Wayne."
That's when he want all "oh gawd." And "this is so high school." And "what are you doing?" "This is WBS all over again." [wbs.net was a chat site back in the mid-late 1990s which is no longer around]
I was expecting some support, and not a bunch of putdowns - especially from someone who considers me a friend. Why bother asking? And it may sound like someone who's looking out for me, but it's not. If he knew me at all, he'd know that it was different with Wayne. I mean Wilf knows how many people have come and gone with 'net friends [he's one that I met through the 'net.] and how many I've dated. Sometimes I think he likes to project me as the kind of person he'd be if he were me.
Maybe he's bitter, or just wanted to feel better about himself because he's flown to numerous places to meet women from the Internet: Australia, North Carolina, Toronto, and he got burned. But WBS was never like that for me, and I'm not sure why he thinks WBS was a dating haven for me. Dating was not on my radar at the time.
What I sarcastically said, "thanks for your support," he didn't even say anything. No apology nor reason for his thoughts. I know now not to talk about Wayne with him anymore. And I can't explain how relieved I am he didn't bring up me going over to his place for sex. His parents are away right now. I regularly tell him to have sex with his fiancee, but he never seems enthusiastic about that.
I don't get him on this.
And yesterday, my co-worker broke up with his girlfriend. This co-worker wanted to have a fling with me before he met her. The first thought that came to my mind when he told me was, "oh geez, I hope this doesn't mean he's going to bug me to sleep with him." Then I felt kind of bad about thinking it. But sure enough, tonight: "We should use the boardroom sometime."
:x
My decision to not sleep with taken men or have casual flings still stands. And I feel good about myself!!
