On Friday morning, Fred called to check- in on me and asked that we moved our plans to meet after work on Friday to lunch on Saturday. The change of plans was fine by me as I was ready to end this overdue situationship.
Mid day Friday, I decided to go out of town for the weekend…it was memorial weekend and I’d rather spend it exploring a different city with a friend. I called Fred to let him know my plans had changed and I was driving out of town on Saturday. He did not respond…it was very unlike him. I texted, no response.
On Saturday morning, on my drive out of town, I called Fred again, no response. I think I left him a voicemail to make sure he was okay.
I headed out of town, it was a 4-hour drive. That evening, I got a text from Fred. The text I received was my “Be-Jesus moment”. It was my wakeup call. It felt as though I came to a sudden realization and I asked my self “… WTF are you doing?”
In summary, the text stated “I see you have tried to call me. I didn’t pick because I have a cold feet because I feel you are going to ask about us and I won’t know what to say. That’s so not right. We can meet up anytime, Let me know“.
Me, a whole spec? ah, I’ve suffered o.
The message left a bad taste in my mouth and I was done!
We’ve had great times together and I figured it was best to call it off in person, as per I was trying to be the bigger person. I was wrong.
I responded and in summary, I stated “I called to let you know I was going out of town and couldn’t have lunch on Saturday as anticipated. I felt it was best if we saw/talked in person. I have taken sometime to think about our “relationship” and realized it isn’t working for me. I feel like we haven’t really grown from when we met and it would be best for us to just go our separate ways. Take care of you“.
He replied and said “oh wow! very well then”.
I took my L and moved on!
I got home from my trip. That evening, I received a message from Fred.
To be Continued!
Thanks for coming to my site and reading my stories… your comments, thoughts and opinions are welcomed 馃檪
Menh this suspense na wa o. To be honest, I feel like he knew that there was no way forward with the “situationship” but did not want to be “the bad guy” that called it off. He did not have a legitimate reason to end it. So he would have left you hanging if you planned your weekend around him. Smh.
Sincerely, I was tired of the merry-go-round. I had to be the bigger person to call things off.
What he did was a coward move. Man up and speak up. Glad you ended things. Can鈥檛 wait to read your next chapter!!
haha. I guess you’re right. It was a cowardly act.
Stay tunned for the next chapter 馃檪
