hi HP... one thing i learned when i got stood up and i gave him a hard time was that i wish i hadn't done it that way.

i asked myself, what would i have done if a friend stood me up? i probably would've called them to see if he/she was still coming over and if they couldn't make it, no big deal. no hard feelings, we'll do it another time.

that doesn't excuse the fact that they still didn't intend to call. but if it were a friend i may either make a joke about being stood up, or gently chide them by saying "oh too bad we didn't get together the other night, i ended up staying at home, with a nice bottle of wine ( 🙂 ). by the way, can you call me next time you don't think you're going to make it? that way i can make other plans"

it lets them know that their inconsideration did have an impact and they're more likely to remember next time. trust me, all my friends know to give me a courtesy call, even the flaky ones 🙂

i don't know why we make it big deal when it's someone we're interested in...when we find it so easy to be more understanding with friends?

Status check:

I hung out with my Taurus ex last night. He tried advances at me and few times, I let him. I feel so bad. But me and the Scorpio haven't talked about exclusive just yet.

The even worse part is I remember how jealous my Taurus ex was when we were together. He knows about the Scorpio and I told him how I wanted to see where it goes with the Scorpio and he said he understood. But after we left the parking lot of the theater (at 1 am...ugh), I started recalling how he was jealous and almost possessive.

The Scorp doesn't need to know I saw the Taurus last night, but what I need to do before I get myself dug so deep is find out from the Scorp where we stand so I know to let the Taurus ex go and stay in my life.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, hp...but doesn't your Taurus ex have a girlfriend? What is he doing trying to put the moves on you, and better yet why are you letting him? He should not have any reason to be jealous about the Scorp because he has a girlfriend, so it negates his feelings in all of this.
I would not waste my self-respect on this guy; its plainly obvious he's shady. If Scorp gets any wind of this and if you like him at all, you will lose him. You can take that to the bank. I would just tread carefully if I were you.

There's a reason an ex is an ex!

Hey Shorty. They broke up about 2 weeks ago. One thing I told him last night was I was not going to get involved with him because of his girlfriend since they had a lot of time invested and he and I have good and bad history. Yes, there's a reason why he's my ex. When I say I let him made a few advances, they were really more of him "stealing kisses" from me when my guard was done.

Yes, I like this Scorpio and I told the Taurus guy that. He kept saying he understood and I hope he does...otherwise I really have noone to blame for this but myself.
