I canned him

I posted last week with the subject "annoyed." It was about a guy who didn't want to make a commitment to get together with me during the week.

Well, I had a conversation over the phone with him last night. He told me he was dating someone else and told me that he like me and liked hanging out with me and to "keep in touch. You never know what will happen."

It bugged me all night and I emailed him this morning, because he avoids having these type of conversations with me. I told him that I can't stand in line for him and be his back-up girl or 2nd best. I can't try to follow through with something when the feeling isn't mutual and that his level of interest wasn't the same as mine was.

He has yet to respond. I'm sad, but I'm sure this will be worth it in the long run. I wanted to thank everyone for their advice as well.

Good for you! It reminds me so much of a guy I was dating almost a year ago, I was only his booty call, he never wanted to come over to my house or to meet my family. One night he called, he was inviting me to come over to his house, it was a night before new year's eve. He wanted to spend some time together, he said he missed me and wanted to be with me so badly, yeah! He wanted to see me that night because he couldn't celebrate new year's with me since he had another date already scheduled! I let him know that right and then that I did not want to be just another date or be one of so many, and told him bye bye, I am worth much more than that, thank you very much!

Good for you then too!! It takes a lot of confidence to know your self worth. We're much better off in the long run.

He still hasn't responded. Which makes him that much more of an ass.
