Ugh. I’m trusting my gut more lately, and what my nauseated gut is telling me is that I’ve been played.
I don’t believe that The Tree had to watch his kid last night simply by the nature of our lack of communication.
Yes, I realize I just met the guy, but he was a super-texter from the get-go, sending me play-by-plays of his days and tons of photos of him and his kid. Lots of “I can’t wait to see you” texts and simply chit chatty type stuff.
Over the last three days it’s dwindled to almost nothing, which leads me to believe that he’s found a distraction from me…already! Last night I got nothing but a text after 10 pm, saying simply, “Wish I’d seen you tonight!”
I could be 100% off, but one thing I’m sure of is that if there truly was kid watching going on, it was different than your normal Friday night with the 9-year-old. And if that were the case - if they were doing something really amazing and time-consuming like going to the fair or something - I would have gotten tons of cool photos. That’s just how our communications over the last couple of weeks have been.
It felt to me like someone who’d broken a date to go out with someone else but wanted to keep me on the hook, so he ran to the bathroom during a lull in his eventing to send me that text.
I know it’s crazy talk, but my gut is nearly always right - I just used to choose to stuff my concerns down into that black mystery goo of denial. I have always given the benefit of the doubt to someone, but this just feels too off.
And hey. It’s no biggie. We had TWO dates. And I’m sure if I’d met someone else and wanted to simply move on to that next person, I’d let someone down easy in a similar fashion. It’s okay. It just bummed me out and left me with no plans on a Friday night when I had high expectations.
So instead of getting all screwy about it, I taught myself how to make music videos.
