Aftermath
Well, no relationship for me. Got dumped by text message. Because I’m everything she always wanted, but she doesn’t want me. She wanted to remain friends…she respects me…but I don’t even rate a phone call, let alone a face to face.
I’m never going to understand this one.
Even when you do virtually everything right, sometimes you’re still just not enough.
I have to try to find a lesson in this somehow, once the hurt and the tears subside…I won’t be trying to dip my toe back in the dating pool for a good long while, if ever…it took me damn near two years to gather up the courage to try again, and as soon as I start to fall and let myself feel and care again – I find there’s only pavement to catch me.

You dated for a short period of time; It hurts I know. You are going to let a person who clearly has no respect for you, stop you from dating again or finding that person to spend your life with. Sometimes in life the lesson is there no lesson and people are fucking assholes. I dated someone for four months and got dumped over the phone, but after a month or two, picked up my life. You never need someone who doesn’t need you, and we all accept the love we think we deserve. Life is hard and there is always someone who has it harder than you. You got to know when your lucky and remember that the shit will pour.
It may not make any sense, but essentially I’m not the kind of person who immediately looks for someone else or who will play the dating games everyone seems to want to play.
I’m not the one who stands out in the crowd. I’m easily ignorable unless someone I know takes the time to point me out to someone else.
I put a lot of energy and effort into everything I do, and when it’s rejected, I need time to process and gather myself. Maybe it’s crazy that in 5 1/2 years I’ve basically not had anything that was defined as a ‘relationship’ last longer than a month or so, and yet I still take a lot of time in between each before I’m willing to think about trying to meet someone again, but that’s who I am.
