OMG! Just ghost, will you????
| Mon, 01-09-2006 - 1:21am |
Why the heck do men think that you want it rubbed in your face that they've met someone else? Just ghost already...we haven't even met, for crying out loud.
I just got an email replete with details about how this guy I just started emailing yesterday ran into a female friend from high school last night, how they spend the day together today (including what they did), how he's enjoying the obvious connection, and he's "sure I'll understand".
To add insult to injury, he ended with "Good Luck!".
I'm sure he thinks he's a good guy for sending the email. I just want to give him the finger with both hands, the arrogant, self-centered, smug SOB.
SO rude. Gaah!

Let's all just breatheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee here.
And please, let's stop the attacks, insinuations, covert or overt insults and the instigation.
The point of the post wasn't to start a debate, it was to vent some frustrations. Just as with some other posts this week, I think it was taken to a different place.
We're all here to help and learn. But that cannot occur when we attack posters for this frustration. Let's all live and let live. If someone has frustration to air, let them do so by creating an environment in which he/she can.
'Nuff said.

So reminds me of a poster about a year or so ago on another board, she had a date with a guy, he stood her up. Never called to cancel just never showed. Then he emails her the next day to say hey I reconnected with an old flame and we are wild for each other and that's why I missed the date because we spent the whole day and evening together. Good luck.
The scariest thing is 2 weeks later when this guy and his old flame split again, he called this girl up and SHE WENT OUT WITH HIM!!!!! I know Sheri is much too smart for that...good grief some people are weird. I remember, one time a friend of mine was doing online dating and so wasn't I, and he met someone and went on to tell me he met someone and that "sorry it isn't working for you" OUCH!
I can see your frustration, nww. The problem here is that people 100 years ago used to write letters just like emails. Back then, letter writing etiquette was stressed and people learned what was appropriate and inappropriate to say. Then the telephone was invented and all the letter writing stopped. Now we are back to letter writing via email and nobody knows what is appropriate and inappropriate to write anymore.
I have received emails in the past that went way over the top with information, not on OLD but more on my day to day activities. Nasty, bitter stuff from people that didn't know me or what I was trying to accomplish. But someone may have felt anger or hurt and decided to take it out on someone they didn't know....me.
I've learned to read the first line of emails, if I don't like where something is going I delete it. If the writer writes me a follow-up email about why I haven't responded, I ignore it. These crazy folks aren't worth a minute of my time.
NWW, I bet you my bank account that this new relationship that this man told you about is already over. He sounds like a nut.
