What did you reply to his "I get so horny" text?click to expand



Posted by MissGemmiNo, I really think he thought I wouldn't be phased by the tinder knowledge.Posted by Andalusia
To all those that told me to stay away - you were right. I should have listened.
Just told me he just downloaded tinder and is cruising for chick's as we were texting.
I see parts of my story in do many other stories on this board. I don't want to take astrology too serious....
He has you in his palm of his hand and it's actually mean. There are two ways. Either he wants to make you really jealous and see whether you are serious about him by stepping up and dhow him that you don't like it of he is really confident now knowing you like him and throws himself out there, thinking he must be very desirable now you've told him your feelings. I got it thrown in my face as well sometimes I acted jealous sometimes not, because I was told Im a special friend, but For some time I was flirted wit after this was said and was even kissed a few times. I withdrew myself when I saw that it didn't mean anything.
Don't be fooled with the sweet exterior and the right words on the right time or still taking the initiative to talk to you. It has nothing to do with you, he knows you like him and he doesn'twant you to hate him. He might see you as a wing man now. Dont fall into it. Just tell him straightforward you cant be his friend. That he is lovely and all, but that you have tons of other friends you already lack time for. Or just say: are you trying to make me jealous it doesn't work😉 Don't think you need to shy away now. Show him how strong you are. But I will warn you, it's hard, but better cut it all now then 2 years later! It will not change.....click to expand




Posted by EllycakesYeah:/Posted by AndalusiaStep away gracefully.
Seriously. Why the fuck would he even mention tinder?? There's no way he could have thought I wouldn't be anything other than hurt by that! He was talking about having kids and shit the other day!
Cancer moon cannot be friends or in a casual relationship when we have a strong romantic connection with someone. Even with your Virgo sun, you know this. We just desire to bond and care for them too much.
If he was just another passing dude you'd be fine. But you like this one. Don't give to him when he can't give anything in return.click to expand

Posted by EllycakesHe never goes more than a day or two without reaching out.Posted by AndalusiaBecause he knows you care more. And my guess is if you had the whole picture, he probably does these things when whoever he's really interested in isn't responding to him as often or enthusiastically as he would like. So he feels insecure and undesirable and knows you were kind and interested, so he goes looking for affirmation from you.
We rotate weekends at work. Memorial Day was my weekend to work and he picked up so he's working too. And he's emailed me about non work related things.
Why. Why? Why?! 😢
Stop offering affirmation and he'll vanish.click to expand

Posted by thinktoomuchI'm just gonna quit and get a new job. I don't like working group there anyways.Posted by AndalusiaWell then you gotta just keep telling him. Set the boundaries.
I've told him we should stop communicating though unless strictly necessary. He agreed.click to expand


Posted by Andalusiaabout time you're doing something
He keeps reaching out after I told him we should stop communicating- and he agreed. Most recently was a "Are you doing okay? You seem pretty stressed out lately" text.
I don't want to completely ignore him because I feel that's pretty dehumanizing. But I also don't want to keep responding and continuing this bullshit cycle.




Posted by Andalusia
I turned in my notice at my day job yesterday. Gave it for a month out since I don't have anything else lined up.
The bullshit, misogynistic politics, and the douche bag Cancer finally got to be too much.
I'm not sorry that I did it. But again, I hate how much I can let others affect me. 😢

Posted by HouseCleaningI would consider it if I could do it without getting caught.
i told you to pour water into his gas tank

Posted by tizianiThey're still married. The divorce isn't final yet and she doesn't want it to be - news to me because I asked him point blank if it was completely over when we were dating and he said yes.
Become bffs with his ex wife and then both of you cut him out the picture.

Posted by FinbuffI really want to tell him off. But i dont wanna deal with all that. So I'm going for the hope I never see him again route.Posted by Andalusia
So Cancer has been using my ideas and recommendations for things to do around the city -- to take his "ex" wife out on a date.. or dates. Idk which. How do I know, you ask?
Because he told me. No idea why he would do that, other than to be an asshole.
I need talked down off the proverbial ledge, because I really want to stab him in the fucking face.
He's either clueless or he's holding some personal grudge against you and wants to "rub your face in it". I'd either ignore him, or go psycho on him to scare him away. What he's doing is ridiculous.click to expand

He just emailed me and said "ice cold". I guess meaning my attitude towards him, since I haven't spoken to him for non work related matters in awhile.
This guy is not your typical cancer. Normally they don't keep women around as "friends", but apparently that's what he wants, OR, he has other motives. I would think the latter. (from my perspective)click to expand

Posted by EllycakesHe's about to get submerged in ice if he doesn't quit his shit. They never heed the warning though and insist in pushing their luck.
He isn't that oblivious. He's whoring for attention and validation.
'Oh my ex wife wants me. But so does this girl at work. I'm so insecure and the fact two women find me attractive at the same time gives my tiny ego validation. Yay. Wait. Where do he other one go? How do I get my attention back? Hey look at me!'

Posted by Andalusiai wasn't looking for your life story lady, but yes thats what i meant, the event coordinator
@housecleaning
I currently have 2 jobs - it's down from 3.
I work full time in a salaried position with a logistics company (where the Crab works too).
I work part time as a hostess in an upscale restaurant.
I used to bar tend part time in another casual dining restaurant. I quit the bartending job (even though I loved it) to free up some time and because they were trying to increase my hours.
The upscale restaurant offered me a position as an Event Coordinator (I think that's the job you're referring to), but I turned it down because the hours and the pay scale just weren't enough. I've wanted to quit my day job for awhile and thought about taking the Coordinator position temporarily until I found something else, but ultimately decided it wouldn't be fair to have them invest the time and training in me, just for me to turn around and step down right after stepping up - especially because I want to continue hosting there even after I get another full time job.
I turned in my notice at my day job because the company culture is severely misogynistic and underhanded AND because of the bullshit with the boy. I have enough money currently to live pretty comfortably for several months and I have been paying extra on all my revolving bills for the past two months, so my costs should be minimal until I can find something else that will work better long term.
