I was right when I said that George was not as innocent as he tries to portray himself. Some things surfaced in the past week that made me start wondering about him. In addition to these things, he didn't seem to think that it was important to make me feel like he actually wanted to spend time with me outside of work. He didn't think that we were dating even though we spoke every night on the phone for hours and spent time together outside of work. He seemed to think that the time that we were in the same building working separatly was time well spent together. He told me on Friday that he thought we spent A LOT of time together. I am not sure where he got that idea. It must have been those long phone conversations when we weren't in the same room together?
I only made one request of him and that was to make plans with me at least the day before so that I would not constantly feel like I was his after thought - "Well, so and so or so and so can't play video games, so I guess I will call Jill." I even made it quite clear that I didn't expect this on a constant basis. I don't mind the last minute plans, but honestly, if you like spending time with someone, shouldn't you be looking forward to it instead of seeing it as a last resort for an evening?
I have been putting in some loooooong hours at work this past week. I was there until 9 last night and with a 45 minute drive home, I didn't get home until almost 10. Then, we talked on the phone and I was up until 11:45. I got up again this morning at 4:45 to get to work early and try to finish the project. I have had a couple of really long days. I left work tonight at 7:30 and he called to ask if I wanted to 'stop by' before he went to the gym. And he didn't see why this would upset me. Seriously??? I should 'stop by' after working 12 hours with 5 hours of sleep to help him pass the time before he goes to the gym??
Knowing some things about George that I never shared on this blog, I'm quite shocked with the way that he has handled himself over the past few days. Why would you tell someone that you enjoy spending time with them, but not this weekend? Why would you tell someone that you want to continue getting to know them and would make an effort to not make them feel like an after thought, and then treat them like an after thought 3 days later? Why would you say that we haven't hung out in a while when it was your freakin' choice to not hang out over the weekend???
Men SUCK!!!!!

I'm so sorry Jill. What a lousy deal. For what it's worth, this was way too new of a relationship for it to be at this "stop by" point. Ya know what I mean. Hang in there....we're all here for ya, Kiddo!

Some men truly do suck! We all have dated a few losers before finding Mr. Right. Keep your head up and you'll find just what you are looking for.
I dated a guy once for over a year who just one day I noticed stopped saying I love you. I called him out on it. He said, 'Just because I don't say I love you, doesn't mean I don't.' I asked if he was going to tell me one day when he stopped loving me. He didn't have an answer for that. DONE, moving right along. Idiot. Funny thing is, his mom has become a good quilting friend of mine. A few years ago I told her that story leaving her son's name out of it. She said, "god, I hope my son wasn't that bad when you dated." My expression said it all. She said she wanted to curl up and die and all I could do was laugh. She just kept saying, "I swear, I raised him better."
Men are strange...
I agree Men are strange....sometimes they just don't make sense!
Sorry Jill, but better to find out now then a year from now. We have all had our share of dating like that. Stay true to yourself and you will find what you are looking for. You have been missed on here....
