bleh - boys blow *update*
Permalink Closed

boy i was really crazy about over the weekend? i'm beginning to think it was a bad choice (aside from obvious reasons if y'all remember my previous post).


he said we should have lunch this week. fine.


he said he'd email on monday with details. fine.


he didn't email monday. not so fine.


he emailed tuesday but not about lunch. a little better but still not really fine.


he emailed wednesday for lunch on thursday. definitely fine.


blubirde goes out and buys very cute dress and spends 30 minutes ironing it this morning to be pretty for lunch. still fine.


boy emails this morning saying he can't make lunch because of work stuff. not fine at all!
and i know it could actually be work stuff but adding up that he didn't contact me when he said he would, waited until the last minute, AND that i only cancel lunch plans when i don't want to go (not when i actually can't) means he's not into it as much as i am.


stupid boys. i hate them. this is why it's always better to hold all the cards. what am i supposed to do with my very pretty dress now? i broke the shopping ban and everything for a stupid lunch date that isn't even going to happen. and i hate lunch dates. bleh. boys blow.


just wanted to vent...

ugh, boys do blow!  what a flake!  could u wear ur dress to the art show friday?  i have no clue what it looks like so maybe it's not appropriate, but don't worry, u will find somewhere to wear it.  i once bought a dress solely cuz it was cute and didn't have anywhere to wear it for a whole year!  but the day finally came & i looked great (luckily it wasn't a "one season" kinda dress)!!  ur day will come too, just be patient.  and as for the guy, blow him off!  not contacting u when he said he would & cancelling lunch plans mean this guy does not warrant ur time or effort.  move on to bigger & better (no kids) guys!!

not calling or emailing when he says he will is so bad!  reason enough to step away.  if he really wants to win you, he needs to do some work to show you he means it.  do you think it's possible that he really did have work stuff that he couldn't get out of?  if he tries to make plans again and sticks to them i'd say give him another chance, but only if he handles it like a considerate grown-up.  enough of boys -- bring on the men!


i sympathize about buying a new dress.  i've done that before!  you'll get to wear it again and you'll have something really good happen while you're in it.

Well, the only good part is that I look damn good in my new dress. That's always encouraging. And it was on sale, so that's good too. Stupid boys.


Crystal - I bought a new dress for the art show too. (heehee) I guess when you break the ban, you should break it well.


I'll just wear this dress another day and get some other really delicious boy to admire me in it. Then he'll be sorry.

When I emailed him back I called him a bastard for cancelling lunch plans (I was joking and it was obvious so no worries on that front), I commented on his work situation that was causing him to cancel - so he says - and I told him "no problem about lunch. some other time." Which was very big of me, I thought. He emailed back just talking about the work crap and not mentioning anything else. Now I really mean it - bastard! Have I mentioned boys blow? How dare he ignite the obsession part of my OCD personality! The nerve of him.

ugh. stupid boy. yes, they do blow.


i dont really have any advice, but i totally empathize with you as far as buying the dress when you really shouldnt have 'but it was for a boy!' and now you end up regreting the purchase. its like we just dont think clearly when we meet someone :)


but hey dont be bummed, plan a fun nite out with all your friends and wear the dress with all the people who you know will truly appreciate its cuteness!


and as for the boy, his loss.

Well, trust me- i know the feeling.  I would be upset too, if I was excited, bought a dress, looked hot, etc. . . but- maybe you could just go hit up a happy hour since you're already looking fabulous!


Dont sweat it, easier said than done though :)  I'd just pay attention to the little things and if he disappoints you more often than makes you happy, then leave that one alone.

I'm sorry.  I've had the same thing happen to me and it can hurt as much as being stood up. 


His behavior may be a good indicator of how he treats people.......

Ugh, this is my #1 pet peeve with boys!  So sorry this happened, but like the other gals said, you're an awesome girl and you look fabulous and if he can't appreciate that, he's blind!

Seriously, why do boys do this?  I was thinking about this yesterday and I concluded that the men who do this are probably not too bright anyway - or not interested enough, but I'm still in denial about that one ;)

It's okay for someone to make vague promises, like I'll call you sometime or see you later... then there aren't any expectations.  But then there's the guys who say "I'll call you tomorrow after work" and don't call till they flipping feel like it!  Ugh.  You want to give them the benefit of the doubt but then you meet others who don't do that at all and you regain clarity and realize those guys are probably... not worth your time.

You're fabulous.  Remember that!  And a hot dress is never, ever a bad thing, take it from me ;)

thanks for everyone's words! and you're right vanessa, a hot dress is never anything to feel bad about!


but guess who called last night? yep, the boy. i was busy painting and waited a couple hours before calling him back - see how he likes it when the other person is unavailable. and he was soooo happy i called him back. (at least that's what he said - a couple times.) we had a good 1/2 hour conversation. i had to go because i had plans with a friend later (ha!). BUT he didn't mention anything about getting together again, even though it was obvious he likes me and wants to. weird. i'm going to be a little wary until he actually comes out and asks me on a proper date. so until then i refuse to get my hopes up. or at least i'll try.

Can I just say how much I love you Blubirde!!!  You and your dating antics (or in this case, lack of) crack me up.  You are so bipolar when it comes to dating and I love that about you.  I bet you are so fun, fabulous and dramatic (in a good way) in person!  Anyway, just wanted to let you know that you at very least amuse one person (and I mean that as a compliment )

yeah, i'm a crackpot. i like to think it's part of my charm but most likely it's what makes people run away screaming. luckily i have a strict philosophy that if someone can't handle me and my randomness then i don't want them in my sphere. it's a small sphere.


and i'm happy to amuse. it's what i do best!

So, any update blubirde.  Has this guy asked you on a proper date, or are you back into the "not into him mood?".

No real update yet. He and I were both busy all weekend (I had a friend in town and I forget what he was doing but he told me). I'm trying to keep a level head until he does ask me out on a proper date. I'm attempting to be skeptical so we'll see how that goes. But, he did email me yesterday and asked me how the art show went, which I thought was pretty cool. If only he'd pick up the phone! I'll give him this week to see if he asks me out for this weekend. If not I guess I'll have to write him off. I'm hopeful though! (Which is a nice change of pace for me!)
