My friend received a text message from an Aries guy she's recently been seeing this morning & it said, (And I quote): "Sorry I didn't text/call you last night. I was feeling under the weather. Other than God, & my daughter, I thought about you when I woke up."

Is it just me or was that awkward?

She's not complaining. It's just that she found it odd that he couldn't just simply say that he woke up thinking about her lol Why did he have to bring God & his daughter into it?

I'm sure some of you have gotten that 1 odd message/voicemail from someone where they end up saying something extra & unnecessary that makes things awkward or takes away from what they were really just trying to say!

1 of my ex boyfriend's once texted me, "I hope the world never ends b/c if it does, I'll be more upset that I didn't get the chance to propose to you than I'd be upset that the world was ending." I'll never forget that text b/c it made me think wtf! lol

Some people have odd ways of telling you things that are meant to be sweet

lol funny. That's the 1st thing she thought was that it was his way of telling her that she's important, but then again she wasn't trying to over-analyze it too much b/c the bottom line is that while she did find it slightly awkward, she also thought it was sweet & cute =)



Yeeah, that's about all it really means- he's stating how important she is to him atm.

What is so weird about that text? I think you two are strange for finding it weird/awkward, and especially starting a thread about it. It wasn't THAT weird.

Start worrying if he leaves dead animals at her doorstep or something. Duh.

It just so happens that this very same guy supposedly disappeared on my friend & didn't call her for 2 whole days. She mentioned to him that she noticed the distance, but he said nothing was wrong.

Yesterday, she texted him & asked him how he was doing. He never responded. Late last night, a friend of hers (I don't know this person) came up with the idea that she should text him from her friend's phone to see if he'd respond.

Welp, she texted him "Hey you" from her friend's phone & surprisingly, he responded within 2 minutes!!

So my friend writes the guy via email & tells him that she's disappointed & that she feels more relieved that her intuition about him suddenly acting weird & ignoring her was right! She told him that she was disappointed in him, consider he'd been chasing her/had an interest in her for over 8 years!

He responded by telling her that he wasn't ignoring her & that the only reason he couldn't talk to her for those few days was b/c he'd left his phone at the church & was gonna go get it tomorrow ! lmao!!! The very same phone he'd just used to text who he didn't realize was her friend!! She never bothered to let him know how she knew for a fact that he was lying about losing his phone though b/c at that point, she was just hurt.

So yeah, they are done! lol

I feel sorry for her though. This guy had liked her & had been trying to talk to her for over 8 years. They'd always been friends but she never would allow their friendship to become more b/c she wasn't that into him. It wasn't until they hung out one day & actually realized just how much chemistry they had, that she finally decided to give in & give him a chance.

Everything was going great. They talked every day & if he couldn't call her, he was texting her & over-explaining himself when there were any gaps in their communication. He took her out, spoiled her & even told his friends/family about her. She was reciprocating it all back & did just as much to show her interest in him.

And then 1 day BOOM! He started acting weird, distant & somewhat cold. And the next thing you know, he not only disappeared, but lied to her about it. Crazy

It's amazing how 1 day 2 people can be doing great & the very next day, sh**t is in shambles!!!

She's so torn about things now & I completely understand why!!!

I think he either didn't like her as much as he thought he would (once he finally got her to himself) or that he met someone new & had more of an interest in the new prospect.

Either way, it was still wrong how the situation played out. She's not mad that he probably found someone else or that he ignored her for 2-3 days after her attempts to contact him when she thought everything was kosher. She's mainly mad b/c he tried convincing her that she was imagining things when she mentioned to him that she felt something was off & that he was being distant. She was mad b/c when she finally had proof that he was indeed ignoring her, he told her a bold-faced lie! And a dumb 1 at that lol

I get that some men find someone that they perceive to be better & suddenly lose interest in the girl they were originally talking to. But I have no respect for the men who can't be honest about it & who resort to ignoring a woman altogether as their means of relaying the message that they are no longer interested.

If only some guys realized that it hurts a woman a lot more when a man lies to her & withholds the truth moreso than it hurts had he actually been honest with her & didn't leave her guessing or left hanging.

This reminds me of the story of the engaged chick who gets her girlfriend (that her fiance does not

know) to go to a bar where her guy frequents, and she sets up the gf to come on to her fiance to test

him. Of course he goes for it...just be prepared to handle the truth as devastating as it may be.

And yes, yes, yes, yes Krys to the just tell it like it is notion...we can handle it. Men need to

STOP the ghosting and have some faith in our maturity.

Ha! I agree. As cliche as this saying is, "It's better to hear a hurtful truth than a soothing lie," it's true!
