So, update on single dad who I met up with at the fair, and many others saw opportunity in it...

He's just not interested "at this time". Just so many thoughts and feelings running through my mind right now. I should have seen this coming, ya know? But no....I let myself be hurt a second time by him. When you think things/people change...and hope for the better....sometimes a huge thumb comes down and squashes you like an ant.

I did my best to keep my reply to the point. Told him all I wanted was to spend time with them, and he couldn't even do that. To delete my number and not ask for it again. Also said that next time he's interested in a girl don't lead her on and be a flake because it hurts...and this hurts a 2nd time around.

There were plenty more choice words I wanted to say, but didn't.

Oh, Islandrain...I am sorry. I remember your post about him and the happy face pancakes.

I am sorry it turned out this way for you. Don't beat yourself up.

Trust me! I did this for eight years with a guy so if anyone is a fool it is someone like me - not you.

You took his words at face value that it would be different this time. You did nothing wrong.

And I hear you about getting your piece out about not doing it to someone else. I did the same thing when my ex was seeing someone for three months. It is just not fair to do that someone - they should know better.

Hang in there!!!

I missed your previous post, but I am also very sorry for your pain too! BTDT! I hope this just means that something better awaits down the corner.

I prefer The Who with "We Won't Be Fooled Again"...there's no shame (like the fool me once saying), just a positive outlook for the future. This too shall pass.

Friends all tried to warn me
But I held my head up high
All the time they warned me
But I only passed them by
They all tried to tell me
But I guess I didn't care
I turned my back and
Left them standing there

All the burning bridges that have fallen after me
All the lonely feelings and the burning memories
Everyone I left behind each time I closed the door
Burning bridges lost forevermore

Joey tried to help me find a job
A while ago
When I finally got it I didn't want to go
The party Mary gave for me
When I just walked away
Now there's nothing left for me to say

All the burning bridges that have fallen after me
All the lonely feelings and the burning memories
Everyone I left behind each time I closed the door
Burning bridges lost forevermore

Years have passed and I keep thinking
What a fool I've been
I look back into the past and
Think of way back then
I know that I lost everything I thought I that could win
I guess I should have listened to my friends

All the burning bridges that have fallen after me
All the lonely feelings and the burning memories
Everyone I left behind each time I closed the door
Burning bridges lost forevermore

I'm so sorry I didn't work out for you, sweetie.

"Just not interested at this time" ? That sounds like something you tell a telemarketer. You're probably better off without him, even if it hurts.

Sorry to hear that islandrain! Don't be too hard on yourself, and don't let him squash you. Have you ever tried to squash one of those little ants? They're small for sure, but they're also much stronger than they look. Sometimes you try your best to squash them and they still find a way to survive.

You will too.

I am sorry island

As hard as it is and as much as it hurts, you have to tell yourself that he just wasn't the guy for you and that you deserve a guy who appreciates you and wants to spend time with you.

There is a lucky guy out there for you! Believe it!
