Posted by EllycakesI WILL CUT HIM!!!
Well I might as well have cancelled. 😐
Didn't hear from him all day. Sent a message over snapchat this morning. Sent him a text after I got to work.
Not a peep all day and I'm leaving work now.
Dating sucks. I'm over people being disrespectful of my time. Flake on me once ok. Second shot and flake on me again. No thanks.

Posted by EllycakesMust be the curse of the Cancer Sailor Moon. Attracting people who only want you when you're too arsed to care. Because heaven forbid they make a genuine connection! Oooohhh the horror!Posted by AndalusiaYeah idk. I think maybe I'm a magnet for people who don't know if they want to date or not lol. He be stalking my snaps and checked all of em. Even from tonight. But no word back.Posted by EllycakesI WILL CUT HIM!!!

Seriously! WTH?
It is what is though. People have their own shit to take care of. And I don't have the energy to analyze why some dude didn't text or call or whatever lol.
It's kind of a bummer. But I bounce back quicker now this has happened a time or two lol. I'll be golden by tomorrow. 🙂click to expand

Yeah. Smooth sailing and they're all talk about how excited they are to spend time together and get to know me and can't wait. Then a sudden left turn to nowheresville ha.
The leeb and Cap bestie say they'll be back. I think my coolness when they leave must intimidate them though cause I am never *graced* with a repeat appearance 😆
It'll be a week or two of awkwardness at Starbucks though. My coffeeeeeeeeeeeee!click to expand

Posted by EllycakesAh I'm sorry Elly. We can plot something slow and torturous that will begin exactly 2 years from now when he thinks you've moved on from this incident....

Posted by Ellycakesbwhahahaha.

...
I know. :/
It just burns me up though!

Posted by EllycakesYes! I am in the same boat.
I realize what it is that I have come to abhor about dating. In the three short months of really pursing the dating scene (as seen in the US), it 'destroyed' me.
Previously, I always felt like a strong willed, confident person. I saw myself as sharp, witty, talented, beautiful and personable. My outlook was always funny, optimistic and sincere.
And since having a few small experiences with dating, which all seem to match with my other single friends, I find myself devolving into a whimpering, anxiety ridden, doubting mess who's self esteem hinges on weak circumstances and even weaker people. That's why I suck at dating. Because the system is bullshit.
People are so god damn focused on keeping themselves protected, in power and in charge that no one truly can get to know who they are. So it's a ton of hurt people walking around hurting others until everyone whittles each other down to the bone. It's so sad that no one can simply be anymore.
I'm hitting the unsubscribe button though. My 11th house stellium says rules and conventions be damned, I make my own way in life, no need to live according to the cultural rules. If love finds its way back to me, great. But I'm not willing to sacrifice all my positive self and trade it in for a shittier inferior version of me on the off chance someone likes me.

Posted by PhoenixRising😆
In fairness I wasn't trying to ignore his question. I guess it just hit me *sh*t I'm doing the one thing I keep tell other people NOT to do....I need to stop that* so I was reflecting on why. I guess I just need to recognize it's not appropriate to stop mid conversations to have a moment of self reflection. Especially when someone is upset.... 😆

Posted by ElleDuMondeMore than likely they are following in the footsteps of the lieutenant governor from TX I think it was.
At the local Mosque tonight they are having a vigil for the victims in Orlando. We are several states away from Florida.
Nobody talks about that.
I have to wonder how many Catholic or Evangelical churches are doing the same.....serious question.



Posted by EllycakesSeriously. What the fuck. Why the fuck would he tell me that?Posted by Andalusia*stabs little effigy of melly's cancer*

😢
At this point honey it'll be up to you to cut it loose. He obviously knows your emotions towards him. A good man would back off in that instance if he wasn't on the same page. A lesser man would keep you around for ego, comfort or just in case.
Not to say he's a bad person. Sometimes we all feel weak or lonely and choose company and friends for less than honorable reasons. But don't let him bring you down.
And when you mysteriously bump into a cute blonde blue eyed girl in the coming weeks who asks you out on a date... Don't say no. Embrace moving on! 😄click to expand

I would love to do a roadtrip before the end of this year though. I have a friend in Nashville and Philly I'd like to visit.click to expand

The important question dear Virgal - Jamie or Frank?
For some strange reason, I always feel incredibly sad on behalf of Frank and torn over Claire's decisions.
On a side note, Tobias does such an incredible job portraying Black Jack as well.click to expand


Posted by ElleDuMondeIt's probably because the office smells like green olive farts.
whoo...the capricorn boss is so pissed off today.
*hides in office to stay out of the line of sight*


Posted by EllycakesThank you, boo. I'll need all the good vibes I can get 🙂Posted by AndalusiaI had to quit a job suddenly like that as well, years ago. I had money saved up and gave only two weeks notice. But the emotional stress was just too demanding.
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. 😢
I had a job drop into my lap my last day at work. Went right into it the following week. I'll be sending the good thoughts and vibes your way that you get similar kismet. 🙂

The user who posted this message has hidden it.I tried to allow myself to use this place like a diary, but I can't. It felt too uncomfortable. The equivalent of meeting your partner's entire family for the first time or trying making small talk with a Cap lol. I fear very little, f*ck I stepped into adulthood without complaint 4 days shy of my 16th birthday. I do fear being vulnerable. Even with strangers.

Posted by EllycakesHmmm I can relate to that. Speaking for myself, it was my way of avoiding any part of dealing, sitting, even glancing at my feelings post break up(s). If I was busy, somehing shiny would capture my interest soon enough and you no longer exist "haha suck to be you ex boyfriend" lol.
I've become hyper social since scorp and I broke up. Like I stayed at home so much and never saw friends. And now I want to be out at least five days of the week with people, meeting new people or whathaveyou.

Posted by EllycakesHmmm. I think I just have to much Scorp "we deal with our own sh*t because you can't possibly understand" energy going on. My problem is allowing myself the permission to upload whether it be on paper or in person. Paper was easier, but lately I find any reason to abandon it. *write 1-2 sentences or a few words..."Oh, I have to catch up on Game of Throne/Lucifer/The Y&R!"...."My nail polishes chipped, gotta fix that"...."I should start dinner"...."I should brainstorm topics for the blog"..."I should call..."Posted by PhoenixRisingWe can't all have sag/cancer placements that make us emotionally vomit public in comfort. *pets gently and serves tea*The user who posted this message has hidden it.I tried to allow myself to use this place like a diary, but I can't.

Feels like I'm finally thIf my clingy nostalgia driven sentimental mush of a moon feels compelled to move on what sorta strange creatures hold onto the past indefinitely like that? 😕Fixed moons, like Taurus. Having a cardinal moon must help with moving on.
Posted by exoI cant help but LOL @ your eggplant icon.
aries bff is dating a virgo. it's going a bit shaky.
virgo seriously asked aries to compile a list of wants/needs/expectations in a notebook for their date.
i couldn't stop laughing. 😆

Posted by ElleDuMondeHiPosted by NotYourAverageAquariusYOU!
Yeah I guess we just bring eternal sorrow to all we come across. I would like to extend my condolences.click to expand



Posted by EllycakesEver think maybe that intimidates the men you're meeting? I'm not at all suggesting you stop being you. Just, rather than internalizing their reaction see it as a "we wouldn't fit anyway". I mean if someone can see all those things in you and then feels "this is too much, I need to bounce" would you want to invest in someone like that? That sounds like it's speaks more to them not feeling like they could measure up vs you being the wrong person for them. Doesn't help that the way they go about it may be sh*tty (e.g. ghost). IDK, we all have insecurities, but if they are so strong that you would walk away from something your attracted to or could potentially be a good experience, you have some stuff to work out. Let them do it on someone else's time.
...I feel fine when I gather myself after each disappointment. I only feel lonely after another rejection. And everyone is always like 'Wow. You're so cool. You're so gorgeous and smart and talented and sweet and loyal. Omgggg. Anyone would be lucky to have you.' Well that's nice and all but after the third time getting dumped for someone else and getting ghosted twice the self esteem takes a knock....

Him: Why is it you expect people to read your mind and just know what you're feeling?
Me: *hmph*
Him: Well?
Me: *ponders silently*
Him: .....are you expecting me to read your mind now?
Me: No.
Him:....so you're not gonna answer?
Me: No.
Him: Why not?
Me: I'm a Scorpio with an air moon
Him: What the hell does that mean?!
Me: I think like you do, but I make thinking look sexy.
Him: 😆....
Me: Still frustrated with me?
