At times I wonder where my brain is.

Because I'm bored at work (though there is tons of filing I could be doing) and because I'm annoyed at myself and a particular person - I'm going to post.
So, there are times, often times sadly, that I wonder where my brain is. About a month ago - before Thanksgiving - I saw this hot guy in Food Lion (a grocery store) and on a whim I gave him my phone number. He didn't ask for it, but I'm crazy like that and I just handed it over.
So he called me later that day - yay! Turns out he's married. Which I'm glad he told me about, but that kinda sucked. And it turns out he was much older than I thought, or I didn't get a good enough look at him or something, because he's 40. And before you yell and scream at me, I know that 40 is not old. I'm 26 though, and generally when there is that big a gap in age the people are at different places in their lives. Like this guy is married and has kids I think (which could very well be close to my age, a few years younger *hopefully*). So we talked, and I told him that I wasn't interested in dating and/or messing around with a married man. I appreciated his honesty and him telling me because I'm not that person (or at least I try hard - most of the time - not to be that woman that hooks up with involved people).
So, I figured that was the end of it. We kinda chit-chatted and then hung up. I haven't called or texted him since then - and neither has he. But then Friday he called me, I didn't answer, he didn't leave a message, and I didn't bother to call him back. Unless you are one of my friends, if you call my cell phone and don't leave a message, you are not getting a return call back. Does that make me kinda bitchy and snobby, perhaps, but if it was important I feel a message would be left. Yesterday he sent me a text, and I didn't answer. He sent me another one this morning and I just replied back with hi. And then he's sent me two more today. He wants to 'get to know me' and 'how bout it?'.
I don't even know what to say... I will say that I'm kinda dumb cause I screwed myself on this one. I am not sure that I even want to go into Food Lion ever again. I think I'll have to drive an extra five minutes to get to the Safeway. Yep. Definitely.
I'm just going to have to text him back and tell him that I'm not interested/available/etc. Dumb, dumb me. And he should know better. If you are a married man, you can not be just friends with the woman that gave you her phone number and thought you were hot. You just can't. It will not end well. The wife will find out. And then she will attack the dumb bitch hanging out with her husband (that would be potentially me), she'll key said girl's car, beat the holy hell out of her, and call her cell phone and say dumb shit like "This is XX's baby momma...you need to stop calling my man you whore". Trust me, I know. I've had two bitches call me, introduce themselves as XX's baby's momma and demand to know why I've been talking to their man. WTF? In both cases, I was simply friends - and only friends - with the guy. But it does crack me up. I had one dumb bitch keep calling on a restricted number. FYI, don't bother answering a phone call with a restricted number, it never ends well. I wouldn't answer, the bitch wouldn't leave a message, and so I ended up changing my voice mail on my phone to specifically stating that any dumb ass bitch that was going to call on a restricted number and not leaving a message was pissing me off and wasting her time. She stopped calling.
And I need to take a really good look at people from now on before I give them my phone number.
Jeez.

Date: 2007-12-18 08:34 pm (UTC)I need to tell him no - and then add a hell no to it. My phone died earlier, I just plugged it in, and I noticed that I had another message 'will i ever see you again'.
WTF?

Date: 2007-12-19 12:25 am (UTC)Though if I were you I'd just tell him you're allergic to married people and you're afraid that if you hang out with him you'll come down with a bad case of 'somecrazybitchisstalkingme' and that never clears up right away.

Date: 2007-12-19 02:36 pm (UTC)I might have to use that whole allergic to married people line someday. I'll save it for a rainy day and pull it out and do it with a straight face.
Are you feeling any better?
