another one bites the dust...

or so that's where i'm pushing him. the date from last friday, while really nice, isn't going the way i had hoped. we had a few text messages this week, were both too busy this week to hang out and both out of town this weekend.
while it's no big deal, here's my thing on dating. if you're interested in someone...i mean really interested, you should at least send an "i'm thinking about you" text. it's not that hard.
i feel like i'm in a cut the crap phase of my life right now. i don't have time for children posing as grown men. the bad thing is this badass attitude is probably a result of me being in NYC. see what even a few moments up here does...lol
seriously though, why should girls stick around for guys who make them feel any less special than they are?

seriously...

so i was online last night checking e-mails from an online dating site when i received an IM. the guy wasn't my type, but seemed nice, so i figured i'd go ahead and keep chatting him up. all was fine and dandy until the following conversation happened:

me: oh, sorry to hear you had a tough day, hope it gets better
him: thanks. so...do you want to see more pictures of me?
me: um...no, i'm good
him: i have a webcam
me: good for you...
him: i'm 11", you can see for your self
me: nope, i'm good, thanks. i think i have to go
him: so, i guess you're just looking for friends
me: what makes you say that?
him: well, guys on here are only after one thing. if you're not going to get into it then you're just looking for friends
me: so basically, because i dno't want to see you, hook up with you, etc. i'm just looking for friends
him: yep. so...you want to see my webcam?
me: good bye
him: wait...where are you going?
him: what happened?
him: i thought you were interested. you have a pretty smile
me (in my head)...oh, because THAT makes ALL the difference in the world.
I log off and now have a funny story to write for your entertainment today.

For those of you who aren't single, consider yourself lucky. For those of you who are and feel my pain, when did guys get to be so..."interesting"
i'm starting to wonder where can you meet a decent guy out there? the dating scene sure does change as you get older. the only problem is that women are maturing and men are still looking for the nearest hook up. oh well, until the next installment!

Guys are...

a pain in the arse and more confusing than they are worth. seriously, i'm starting to wonder why we even bother. then it happens...you meet someone, you make a connection, and the games start all over again...

well, i had a coffee thing on friday night. it was very impromptu; fortunately i had a cute dress on (SO wouldn't have gone other wise). it was a GREAT hang out, we ended up chatting for a few hours, and now i'm in the inevitable gray area of waiting. the mini-date went well. i had a blast, showed a lot of promise, and then he says he got sick on saturday.

now, i do know his throat was hurting him on Friday, but, here's where the confusion comes into play. good date on Friday night that ended with a kiss (the chemistry was really that good), but that's all. no major juicy story there. Being a guy, he wanted to do more...i said no thanks. he acted a little weird, then seemed ok. we texted each other on Saturday and he did call, everything seemed normal. we texted a little less on Sunday and he said he just didn't feel well and he "needed time to heal"...yes, that's a direct quote. then yesterday, nothing. so we'll see (I hate the waiting game)...i'm thinking cut my losses and move on.

why is it that we have to play this cat and mouse game. i can promise you that, if i don't call, text, or e-mail him for a few days he'll suddenly start contacting me. if i call him up to say hi, i'll become the crazy chick/too needy/blah blah blah.

here's what i want...be honest up front. if you want to call someone, call them. if you're looking for a hook up, then don't pretend you're looking for a relationship (that's a whole new blog entry), etc

in my opinion, games are SO over rated. that is THE fastest way to get me to lose interest. oh well...thanks for reading and i'll keep you posted on if we see a second date.
