What the Frickin Frick?!?

Oh...my...GOD!!! Here is my luck with guys; I either have a great guy in my life that suddenly decides to cease communication...or I have a not so great guy that wants to be all clingy and relationshipy super fast. Why can't I seem to find a good balance of the two?

This new dude surpassed the Stage 5 Clinger status...he's at Stage 6, so I'll call him S6C. He's a friend of a friend. She thought we'd be good together - and although he's totally not my type (he's like a 36 year old ginger, skin-headed redneck type guy), I figured I'd go ahead and give it a shot since going after my type of guys hasn't really worked for me. So met the dude on Sunday - went out on a boat with him & my friend. He seemed nice enough. Anyway...then things get to be a bit much. Little things like him pestering me to stop by, just for a quick second, just for one kiss. Then him telling me he wants to be there for me "always" and that he "sees good things for us in the future". This was like day 3 of knowing him.

Then, on Wednesday, I had the day off so went to TGIFridays for some food and a drink or two. The bartender was soooo freaking cute! Flirted with him for a couple of hours...got the digits and whatnot, it was nice. Anyway, apparently S6C was pissy and around 6:30 bitched to my friend that I was still sitting at the bar instead of seeing him - little did he know I'd been talking to her so she was able to fill him in on the fact that at that point I was passed out in bed - Long Island Ice Teas are not my friend.

Thursday he was all upset because I didn't call or text him on Wednesday. I explained to him that I was dealing with some things, and one of them was finally being able to talk to the Producer and getting some closure. Then he got all pissy like, if that happened back in May, why do you need to talk to him now? Um...because I was able to. He wanted to see me that night but I had other plans, then he was texting me later that night to make sure I was actually doing what I said I was doing.

So Friday morning (today) rolls around and I get a text from my friend. She tells me that S6C is ready to throw in the towel because I'm not paying enough attention to him and he's impatient and whatnot. I'm thinking - sweet, no problem there. Then he texts me that he wants me to call him after work to talk about things. What the hell dude? Really, this much drama from a guy that I haven't even known a week? So I told him what my friend told me and he totally goes the other way, being all like - I never said that, and whatnot. Actually, here's what he said...

"no im not any of that im very patient I have been and always will be..don't. Care if you can't go out but the one thing im confused with is if you remotely interested in me all I ask is a text once in a while just to show me that you are...I know your situation i want to be here to help or do what it takes to make you happy and as you know im nothing like anyone you dated before I don't care if I don't see you everyday I only want a sign that you are still interested in me if you are at all im not mad at all just want a kiss that I've been waiting for since Wednesday lol don't be upset with me please"

First off... when did proper punctuation go out of style? Drives me insane! Second - he said the exact opposite to my friend. Come on dude... can't bullshit a bullshitter. And never... EVER tell me that you're nothing like the other guys in my life because I've heard that line so many times it just pisses me off. And that's exactly what it is...just a lame ass line to try to get the girl. Doesn't work for me.

Anyway, I told him that and he said he doesn't want me running anywhere but towards him and how we'd be so happy together and whatnot. Yeah, it might sound sweet to some people, but everything all rolled into one... it's a little much considering we JUST met! Too much drama! So I told him that much and he got all pissy. What the fuck ever. Honestly - I'd much rather be semi-ignored by hottie Producer than smothered by weird S6C.

Never letting my friends set me up with guys again!
