Easter Sunday came and so did the multitude of personalized texts from the Misc. Guys I have dated in the past. I even received a greeting from one dude I dated almost 2 years ago, asking about my fam and other personal stuff!?
Why, Misc. Guy? To you, I write this letter hereby closing all future communications, whether it be via verbal, hand-written or by electronic means…

Dear Misc. Guy,

I’m not trying to be mean M.G., but you’re really not a thought to me, nor do I have the desire to wish you seasonal greetings every time one turns the corner.

So please just stop. It’s not cute nor endearing – it’s extraneous and just, well…sad.

kissies,
Midtown Girl (the real MG!)

I would humbly like to request that everyone, after reading this letter, to please start singing the song “American Pie”, but to replace the ‘Miss American Pie’ hook with ‘Miscellaneous Guy’ instead. Thank you & good night!

Ex-Mess :-(

2 Mar, 2009  |  Ex-Factor
So EX texted me again all day yesterday and proceeded to wonder why I wasn’t responding. He then left me a weeping vm detailing why it was so vicious of me to not even be friends with him as if I am the bad guy here.

As I was checking my vm, I get a call. I look, its EX. Ugh. I attempt to hit ignore, but in my irritated state, I end up hitting accept. Damn! -

HE: “How come you’re ignoring me?”
ME: “Oh god, what do you want?”
HE: “Why are you being so mean to me?”
ME: “Because I don’t want to talk to you ok. Please stop calling/texting/everything ok.”
HE: “Well, I guess you can’t talk to me anymore bc you found your knight in shining armour.”

My what? And I WISH!

ME: “I don’t know what you’re talking about and I really don’t want to talk to you. Not right now and not in general.”

EX starts to cryOMG why am I going through this – still?

ME: “Why are you crying?”
HE: “Bc you are being so mean to me and I just want to be friends with you, that’s all. You’ve changed so much and it hurts alot. I really loved and still love you. I feel bad about everything that happened in the past and it’s not fair that I have to punished for the rest of my life for one mistake.” (cheating)
ME: “We’ve had this convo a million times. It wasn’t just one mistake, it was a year of utter hell and look, I don’t think about it anymore and neither should you. Really, you have got to stop this, it’s getting old. I don’t hate you but this is really upsetting me.”
HE: “Why can’t we be friends though? I feel so all alone and I lost all of my friends when we were together bc I focused on you the whole time.”

WHATEVER you say.

ME: “Oh please stop the bullshit, its so tiring. I tried to be friends with you and you kept bugging me about working things out, when I told you sooo many times I had no interest. So it’s your fault that we can’t be friends.” does that ever work anyway?
HE: “I’m sorry. I don’t have any alternative motives this time, I just don’t want you to completely ignore me. You mean a lot to me and if you can just respond to my texts once in a while then I will be fine.”

EX is not crying anymore but has that shaky-voice thingy as if he is ready to break out the water works again.

ME: “If you want to say hi, then fine, but if you start any nonsense about working things out and/or giving you second chances, then you are cut off completely. I mean it, do not talk to me about anything relationship-oriented. I am saying this to you bc you were nice to my mother when she got sick and even sent her flowers. It meant alot to her and I appreciate that. But I mean it, I have no interest in ever working things out with you. So please respect that.”
HE: “I will and I just want to be able to talk to you sometimes. Thanks.”

I absolutely get soo freaked out when guys cry. It confuses me and almost makes me even more angry, but then I end up feeling like an evil-hearted witch. Guys -unless there’s an illness or family stuff – please, do not cry. Ever.

Have any of you had a past (or present) guy, cry?

EX: “Hey, what’s new?”

EX: “Hello??”

EX: “Is this still your number?”

EX: “What’s up??”

EX: “Hey, I got tix to a Knicks game, you want to go?”

EX: “I only want to go with you, so please let me know asap!!”

Uhm, no thanks jerkface. The Knicks suck & so do YOU. (the Knicks do still suck, right? lol)

because even though I’d like to think I’m emotionally sound, it’s not impossible for me to fall off the wagon now and again.
So when March hits, it will be the 3 yr mark of my break-up with my Ex, which ultimately led to the online-dating and eventually…this blog! Every 2 months or so (which in this case, is today), Ex will inundate my cell with pretty much the same texts, in pretty much the same order…so much so that sadly, I can recite them on the fly:

-I miss you. Do you miss me?
-It’s been too long. don’t you think? Why can’t we work things out?

-No one will ever love you like I did.

-Do you have a boyfriend? I don’t have anyone.

-You’re not responding to my texts, so I guess you have a boyfriend.

-Why won’t you respond to me?

-Why are you being so hard on me?

-Can’t you learn forgiveness???

-Why can’t you give us a chance, it’s been so long!

-I hate you so much for being so cold to me.

-You’re such an angry, unforgiving person, that’s so sad. I feel bad for you.

-Please text me back. I love you.

-You’re such a mean person.

-You are the love of my life, can you please, please forgive me.

-I promise this is the last text you will ever get from me again. I now know its truly over and I have to move on. I will always love you ;’-(…

Of course, I don’t respond to any of his texts, and when the last text comes, I always experience that momentary sigh of relief..that is until the next texual-assult occurs.

You would think after all this time, he would give this up already? Cheaters live in regret I guess ;-/ In any case, it’s not my prob anymore.

Anyone else had or is having a similar experience?? Please share ;-)
