So we just finished MSNing. He apologised for not calling last night (I had just figured he wouldn't because he didn't mention about getting together later that night). He was claiming that he was doing the right thing because he is seeing someone. I reminded him that he said he wasn't seeing anyone recently when I asked him if he would be cheating on anyone if hooked up.
Then he said he wasn't seeing anyone. When I asked him if there was someone he was interested in, he said yes...and then that he didn't know. And that he was trying to be considerate and trying to treat girls better. And then he said he needed some time alone before getting serious with someone.
Will this guy's tune ever change? Thank goodness I am over it. I was really hurt by this particular dating experience. All the trust I had in him and all his dishonesty was a doozy. I was (and still am) very commitment phobic. I won't really give all of myself in a relationship until I feel safe, and this particuilar guy called himself my boyfriend. When there are titles like that, I have different expectation vs. when I'm just dating.
Anyway, I did tell him I wasn't really comfortable with the idea of sleeping with him again, but I would have done it for other reasons.
Then I stirred up some trouble.
I brought up his best friend, but time ran out before I could finish what I started. I probably left him confused, but I know he won't think much of what I said. I did tell him I wanted to tell him something even though there was no point to it.
Seriously, there really is no point in telling him his best friend was trying to hook up with me, is there? But should he know that his best friend *would* do such a thing (since they've made a pact)?
The smartest thing the P Man ever said to me was that you can tell a lot by someone from their friends. I told him G Man was even worse at playing games than he was, and to my surprise, he agreed.
What I am most glad about: that I was relieved to not see him last night and that my heart didn't drop when he told me he was seeing someone.
