i rec'd an e-mail from 'dude' today, which was completely unexpected. basically, he apologized for the psycho comment and said it was meant to be a flippant comment and he didn't expect me to take it the way i did.
he also apologized for not being ambigious about making plans instead of just coming out and saying 'i have tentative plans for that night can i get back to you and let you know' (direct quote).
i sent an e-mail back saying thank you for the apology and a simple statement saying i just don't accept those kinds of derogatory remarks from people in my world.....
he said he'd call this week---not really sure why to be honest or what the scope of things are, but at this juncture, i'm too damn busy to even worry about it.
NGOL, crazed work and home schedule is a great deterrent from overthinking things! ;)

Um Frentic, Why the heck are you in that circle again? Ok go back 2 weeks, month ago and re-read your posts. Same exact thing. He apoligizng for being an idiot. You taking something the wrong wya (not really IMO), etc.
Stop the cycle and let him go.
But ya know, You know best and you are totally in charge of your life - so I have confidence you'll do whatever is best for you. But gawd, this guy makes me want to go over to his place and shake him good for being such an idiot.
Here's my theory.....if he's willing to make effort, then fine, but I'm just going to sit back and let whatever happens happen. It's not really an issue to do that at this juncture. Chances are he won't put in the effort and it'll just fizzle out--no harm/no foul.
I do think there's been some misconception on this board that this has been some sort of 'trauma' to me---which isn't really the case at all...a source of annoyance at times, but then again, I get annoyed with quite a few things in life (including these boards), but I still keep coming back for some strange reason--I'd guess because it's not a 'deep' enough reaction for it to cause any lasting effects (affects???)
This guy is who he is and he's going to do what he wants to do....when/if I get completely fed up with it is when we'll go our separate ways. At this point, I guess I'm willing to give the opportunity to cultivate a friendship a chance.

Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious vis
i don't think its been an experience where you need this support from people to get you back on your feet at all.... but at the same time because you only post about "dude" when hes being annoying... well then we get that POV.
But, I don't understand why you want him around for "friendship" if hes not even close to being a real friend? "chances are he'll let it fizzle"... that means you don't thnk hes friendship material anyhow.
That is my pt. just my observation. and i know from experience ive held onto "dudes" just because my ego couldn't let him go - for th epure reason it had become a power control game.
