the shitty thing about dating someone new
is that you don't know how much you can harass them with phone calls and emails before they start to think you are nuts.
i have a salesman friend in 'on business' from out of town and he wants to take me and some friends out for dinner to a super nice place i could never afford in real life. fucking-A! i'd like to bring ashton but he is unlocate-able at the moment. i left a message with his roommate a few hours ago but have yet to receive a reply. dinner will be in about 1 hour and i'm wondering if i should try him again or just screw it.
with my ex i would just call his home phone, cell phone, and email him at all 8 email addresses until i found him and it didn't seem weird or stalkerish. but this, i'm not sure. argh!!!

Ago, you are the greatest. I love that you deliberate over this sort of thing. I would do the same thing in my single days. At all 8 work email addresses is the best part and that it's not weird to do that. That's how it should be in a good relationship
Hopefully you went to dinner anyways, sans Ashton or avec Ashton. I hate it when I can't reach someone. My friends must be available at all hours. I am, so why aren't they?
i deliberate over this kind of thing because i've totally forgotten how to be single...i'm not sure how the pace of things should be. and i do not want to come across as one of those weird needy girls calling all the time because i need to know where he is every minute of the day, that is my worst nightmare!
i ended up calling his cell (i figured that wasn't over the top)and he wasn't there so i gave up.
and there was no way i wasn't going to go to dinner just because i couldn't find him! whatever. i found 2 other friends to come and we had a great free meal. so there.
Sounds like you made the right choice amie. You played that just right. So how was the restaurant? And by the way, when will you give me your email address? I have something great to send you offline. Yes, I am begging Wonder Woman/concubine. It's now or never!
Sorry I didn't see you in Stanley Park yesterday. Shame on you for not showing up in BC. Ashton should understand if we need to meet up in the future. Just tell him "it's all good" and that should take care of things.
the restuarant was great! ate way too much food, got free drinks, had good conversation (except for the part where i obviously offended the guy from michigan by calling george bush an illiterate...oops!), can't get much better than that!
ashton emailed first thing this morning saying that his lame roommate hadn't given him the message and he was very sorry that he never called me back! ha ha!
how was i supposed to meet you in vancouver when you didn't send me the moolah? my t-shirt business hasn't taken off yet so i'm not made of money you know!
and email away my dear, email away...
you didnt get his money order he sent (we know better than to accept checks from a guy who just bought a new expensive house)?
I'm sure he sent it...
That shirt biz is gonna make you (and me, you devoted wife) rich. Rich I tell ya.
muhahahahaha....
I have decided it would be best for my financial career to remain a slum lord. Next time I go to Vancouver, there will be plenty of cash leftover for a secret rendez-vous.
Steph, I will look into using my Companion fare mileage to get you there at the same time. Like I said, very few pretty women in Vancouver.. very few.
Let me know if you need me to spot you some cash Ago. I could do it to get your t-shirt business booming.
Nice news on the restaurant. Sounds like a good time was had. Sucks that Ashton's roommate is such a bonehead. Slap the guy next time you see and say "that's from Egan" while you do it.
ill take your free miles if it means that I will get to hang with ym gurl - and you too of course...
;)
polly, i did! i told him about the great food and free drinks and rubbed it in good. he was annoyed and yelled at his roommate in front of me. ha!
I would automatically think Ashton was a liar.
noni, do you mean because he said he didn't get my message? i'm really trying not to think he's a liar because then i would just start getting insecure about everything he does/doesn't do, says/doesn't say...and i'd rather not do that. if him not returning my phone calls becomes an ongoing problem, i will have to reassess....plus the roommate admitted to me that he fucked up.
btw, is it ok if i call you noni?
Mrs. Carrington, you can call me whatever you want. Noni is cute; I should have commented on it earlier. Thank you!
And I only meant to show through my comment what a paranoid freak I am. It's more than possible his roommate is a 'tard and didn't give him the message. I just know how easy it is to lie about not getting messages having done it myself...so when someone tells me they didn't get it, I think they're lying.
Don't let me lead you to insecurity. You're too hot n spicy for that kind of boooooolshit!
