I'll Text You






















I decided to give eGuy the benefit of the doubt and believe his "I got run over by a car" story. Yes I am a fool. Yes apparently I want to give this man another opportunity to hurt me. I have issues.

So I responded with something along the lines of "are you ok, what happened, etc." I received back the following message: I'm getting my phone replaced today. I'll text you when I get it

That message was sent to me on myspace on Wednesday. Today is Monday. I have heard nothing from him since. I replied to his message, sent him a text the next day, and tried calling him 3 days later. Nothing. Obviously I am that stupid. I just wish I knew what changed for him. He's probably hoping I will finally give up and stop trying to contact him. And I will. I just need to say one more thing to him and I'm done. Once I get this off my chest I'll be able to forget about him completely.

I'm sorry. I was really wishing and hoping for you! He did sound so great, I was excited too. At this point, who knows what's going on with him. It is his loss and not yours. Any guy would be lucky to have a woman who keeps him in her thoughts after the first "flake-out" incident! The fact that you hold out for hope and gave him the benefit of the doubt says a lot. So many of us get hurt and we shut the door to "what ifs" and we don't give love a chance sometimes. It is a big risk to put your heart out there. You did and that's what counts.

I agree with Gabrielle. You were really nice and gave him the benefit of the doubt. Now you know he's a crazy weirdo and you'll move on. I once had a guy from Match.com call me nearly every night for ten nights in a row, and we spoke for an hour or so each time. Then the day we were finally supposed to meet in person (which had been HIS idea), he e-mailed me (not even a phone call, just an e-mail) to say that our phone conversations had led him to believe we wouldn't have any chance of even having a friendship, "let alone anything more." I was so angry. I'd wasted HOURS talking to this guy -- why had he talked to me every night for almost 2 weeks if there was supposedly "no chance" we could even be friends!? There are some really messed-up guys out there. The trick is to be as careful as we can without giving up ALL our vulnerability, because without some trust we'll never get into a relationship with anybody. It's hard. Hang in there. *HUGS*

You are both so sweet! I've already gone down the path of being so hurt by a guy that I don't let anyone else in. I'm really trying not to be too angry about his behavior and not push everyone away. It's his problem and his loss. I'll be talking to someone new soon.

That's our girl! *HUGS* for sure!

Yes, definitely forget about this one and look for the right one. :)

He's out there, for all of us, we just have to cut through the weeds to find him. :)
