I'm so f'ing fed up with men right now. Every time I think someone will be reasonable and nice and an adult, he isn't. I got this email from my slightly older date yesterday saying his job was eliminated. He has to move to a new location where his employer does business or he's out of a job entirely. Right now is obviously not the point in history when looking for a job is ideal, so off he goes.
Apparently he wants to talk to me about it. "Needs" to, even. Why me? I don't know. But I don't really care. In all honesty, I am fond of him and complimented that he values me enough to consult my heart and/or brain on the issue. I also appreciate that he cares enough to keep me apprised of such a big thing after one single date with me...since it does affect me.
I email him back and offer to get together.
Guess what happens next...
Really? You've learned nothing from this blog?
Oh, now you got it. He didn't respond. What the f? I realize he's busy. He's suddenly moving, he's suddenly out of work or training for another job, he suddenly in whatever court battle has to go on for him to reset custody arrangements for his daughter's well-being. And he's suddenly thinking through his life in a new place after he has only just started getting settled here a year in.
I do not dispute these things.
But he should not have told me he had something "very important to discuss" with me if he wasn't going to follow up and at least give me a timeline of when that conversation might occur. What the F?
Okay, I'm done railing about that. There are many other things that need railing about and I must get to those before work tomorrow.
