This is a post that I am sure alot of you ladies can relate to. If you are a man perhaps you have been down this road before as well.
I posted a personal ad on a phone service. About a week ago someone answered my ad and he seemed to be very nice. We chatted for a bit one night and we decided that there was some interest there. Throughout the week we spoke almost every day. He would leave nice messages on my cell phone voicemail when I did not answer.
Due to the fact that this was before Valentine's Day I was excited to know that I may have a Valentine. All week he was leaving messages talking about VDay etc. Stating that we had a chance to be Valentines etc. The night before Valentine's Day is when everything started to change. Early Wednesday afternoon I received a message on my voicemail asking where I was and telling me that he wanted to spend Vday with me. He said that he had a small present for me. I realize this all went very fast but I figured that anything was possible. Later that night we spoke and as soon as he got on the phone he said I have decided that I do not think it is advisable that we get together tomorrow. My response was who is he to govern how the relationship is supposed to go. We did not even meet one another. I then asked why he did not want to meet and he said because Vday is over rated. This made sense but I was still stuck on the fact that he was already making decisions for the both of us. One word took another and it seemed that I twisted his arm to meet me. I hung up the phone and wan unsure of what had just happened so I called a friend. I told her what happened and she said that I should call back to confirm that we were indeed meeting Thursday. This was just to get to see what we both looked like. She suggested that I call him back to confirm. When I did he stated yes we will and just leave it at that . I was pissed when I got off the phone. The bottom line was that I never went on the date and stood him up. Later that evening he called and left a message on my voicemail asking where I was. I did not respond until later and called him back and left a message. The message was that if you think I stood you up you are right. I know that was not the nicest thing to do but I was upset.
Today being Saturday I got a phone call from him stating that he owed me a phone call. The conversation went like this. He stated that I was immature and possessive. When I asked him why he thought I was possesive he was unable to responsd. My response was I did not like the way that the conversation ended. He gave me every excuse in the book. He also stated that he was dominant and the fact that I was possessive with his dominance would not work. At the end of the conversation he said that he would still like to get together but that he did not want to get stoof up again. I said if I ever met you I would nto stand you up.
There is a part of me that is curious about him and there is a part of me that thinks I need to get my head examined as to why I am still curious. I want to know people opinions on this issue and if there were ever stories that you had that were similar.

Miss Holly, though it is not my place to say, you don't seem so jolly:P And, from what you wrote there, it DOES seem like you toyed with him like a cat holding a mouse above her open mouth. Your initial discontent came from him deciding to NOT meet for the first time on V day...a logical response from him cuz blind dates on V day are a BAD idea. From there you just got ugly and bitter with him. So, anything he would say after about him being concerned or mad is fair. My two cents. Not dictating anything, ok, she-hulk?:P

I appreciate you comments but calling me a she hulk does not cut it. You do not know the whole story. I know that if I chose to post this I am not always going to get a favorable replay but my thoughts were that the plans were constantly changed and it bothered me. Ok Dr. phil?

If yew trah to put peanut butt'R awn a dragonfly, you're gonna get more flies than honey, sweethawrt.:P How was that for crazy Dr. Phil?:P Aka John Madden.
You DO get why I called you a she-hulk, right? Of course I do not know the whole story. I suppose I shouldn't have commented at all either. Let the estrogen fest of other female readers begin. I totally get that the plan changing irked you, but do try to see the other side--his side. Not sure what else to say. I am tired:P
