A classic example…

Of how I can be a complete hypocrite.

Okay.

Let’s start at the beginning.

I know I said I had a good date with Andre (pseudonym due to his striking resemblance to the tennis superstar) and I did. I really did. The only thing missing? The very important fireworks. As I explained to a few friends of mine, I’m more apt to punch him on the shoulder and suggest going for a beer than I am to even entertain the thought of getting nekkid with him.

Anyway, I think it is pretty clear that he is interested in me, at least a little, since he has asked me out at least 5 times since that date, but nothing has worked out.

Now here is how I am a hypocrite…

I’ve determined I’m not interested in him, but rather than actually telling him that I’m not, I’m tempted to just pull a disappearing act. You know, not return his calls or text messages. Bitch alert, right here. The problem is, I don’t think my conscience will let me do that. I mean, for example, remember this? When I had the disappearing act pulled on me? It has happened a couple of times, because boys are dumb. After, I always think “Dude! Don’t be such a panty! Cowboy up and tell me you just aren’t interested, don’t leave me wondering if you died or something!”

And here I am, wanting to do exactly what I hate having done to me.

Hellooo hypocrisy…

(Advice appreciated.)

    Advice, eh? Lie. Make shit up. Tell him you’re not interested. Tell him you’re not “feeling it”. Tell him you’re sorry, but you’re moving on. Wait a minute… Oh. I guess, telling the truth works just as well :)

    Be good to yourself.

    You crack me up. It’s a tough one. The correct thing to do is to be a “man” and break it off. Maybe that will do us good with the whole relationship karma.

    I’ll tell you what, I’ll do it if you do!

    Yeah im with everyone else on this one Brea, its better to hear from a woman that shoot from the hip sorta answwer, then to pussy foot around the whole thing excuse my use of words. same thing happened to me, and I was like, ok WTF is going, did i say something, did i do something wtf is going on. instead of days/weeks maybe months on end. tell him straight.

    if hes a man, he`ll take it and move on. if he doesnt, then maybe u really do got bad luck with guys, ala Stalker style :O
    if he does do it stalker style lemme know,I m sure a big 6 foot native guy can help with that situation lol.
    cheers.

    You should tell him. Mainly because the alternative of faking your own death is so impracticle.

    It also makes it awkward if you bump in to them later on…
