The boy dropped a bit of a bomb on me. I knew he had been seeing this girl before anything happened between us. He told me they were calling it quits and were going to be just friends, and I made sure that that was over, because I don’t mess around with that.
We went out for drinks the other night and he tells me that since his schedule is changing (she works at another branch of our store and they were on complete opposite schedules), they decided to give it another shot. Just like that. No consideration for me.
After telling him how shitty that was, and explaining to him a bit about what happened with the ex and how this just perpetuates that cycle of insecurities and whatnot, I decided to actually stand up for myself and proposed “well, what about me?” I asked if I could persuade him otherwise. I think I definitely gave him something to think about.
Except now he’s being all flaky and knew I was completely pissed off at work today after he blew off our plans for this evening. We may or may not be getting together tomorrow…I just want to know what the deal is.
I can’t fault him if he goes with the safe bet…it’s what I did for two years. But I also see where it got me and regret most of the choices I made.
But maybe he should’ve gotten his shit together before he pursued anything with me?

Forget him. Do not even give him the opportunity to “decide” who he wants. YOU be the one to call the shots. You deserve better.

this is so selfish of him. while you might feel insecure about this, realize that him doing this (keep two women around) is a reflection of his own insecurities and his need for validation by always having someone around. you deserve everything more.

That is such bullshit. He doesn’t even begin to deserve your time.

I’d say don’t waste your time with him if he’s not all in. I’m sorry :(
