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.... ๐

Well I might as well have cancelled. ๐Didn'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.
I WILL CUT HIM!!!
Seriously! WTH?

Yeah 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.
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. ๐

Must 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!

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 ๐
It'll be a week or two of awkwardness at Starbucks though. My coffeeeeeeeeeeeee!

What an inconsiderate Wang. I hope he spills coffee on his foot and ruins his favorite pair of shoes.
And I agree with your besties. They always make a curtain call. It might not be soon or in the way you'd expect, but it will happen. It aaaaaallllways happens.

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.
Yes! I am in the same boat.
It was fun in the beginning bc I was getting the attention I needed, more as a distraction. I didn't mind the inconsistency. Now I'm numb to the dating pool. Indifferent maybe. I just have become happy with me.
at least I'm not sad and longing for someone in the past, so I guess it was good for something. It makes you wonder about "love" these days

Lol. I forgot we have so many Scorps with Leeb bits floating around.
I was actually eating a salad while I wrote that. Clearly my sarcasm doesn't even filter graphic details while eating when my annoyance hits.
@Ellycakes
The best part of living life is when you realise you have no more fucks to give. That is when the true adventures begin, definitely freeing the chains of thoughts, doubts, and concerns. It is a lesson everyone should learn or reach.
(hugs)
I wish I could offer more support or make your journey pass by more swiftly.
However you are doing better and better, it really comes across in your writing!

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.
More than likely they are following in the footsteps of the lieutenant governor from TX I think it was.
It's a terrible situation with so many facets and contributing factors. And no easy solutions.
All I know is this country seems to have lost its respect for life in general.
The Cancer I was seeing used one of my ideas to take his "ex wife"(?) out on a date. What in the literal fuck. I want to stab him.

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! ๐

Still trying to figure out how to stalk you without a Facebook. ๐ข my Scorpio skills are lacking.
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.

@Ellycakes I will buy you all the fancy food and drinks you could hope for!
I hate how much I can let other people's opinion of me influence my own sense of self.
I don't start out like that, but then I get called out for being "weird" or "aloof" or "a hard ass", so I start to take others interpretations into account. But it always ends up blowing up in my face and then I always end up feeling so fucking foolish and saying "Why did I listen to them instead of trusting my own voice??!" Which in turn makes me want to disengage and put up more BS FEMA built walls, only knowing they will be blown down with the slightest bit of wind [AKA hot air]
But I never feel like that with my Scorpy-hoes.

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.

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. ๐ข

whoo...the capricorn boss is so pissed off today.*hides in office to stay out of the line of sight*
It's probably because the office smells like green olive farts.
If you had consumed those olives with vodka and ice, you'd be fine.

I 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 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. ๐

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.
*exits new territory* at least I tried. I'll stick with my journal....I can't seem to write anymore though ๐ข ....

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.
Hmmm 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.
Anyway, I had to sit still at some point.... That was never pretty.

...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....
Ever 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 don't know if that made sense. I don't care all that much this morning.
i so wanted to say this to my enemies
"if you think hiding behind the law makes you safe
understand this accidents can happen to you"
and to my crush
"i won't be your knight in shining armor
instead i'll be your angel of death, at your command"
to my brother's and sister
"if the world is against you i'll be behind you like a shadow guarding
your back just go i've got your back they don't call me a ghost for nothing"
there i finally got a load of my shoulders sigh.... i hope i wont have to actually
do that cause it will be a tone of hard work
I want to have a threesome in Spainโฆonly Spain.
