Uh...what?

So, I have been instructed to update this by my sister and my only follower. Thanks for supporting me, Anna! :)

So, I am going to start with my recent frustration -- men. Now, I have been told that if a man really digs you, he is willing to wait for sex. I am pretty sure this is true...because I have been told this on more than one occasion. But I can tell you right now that I, myself, have experimented with both options -- sex on the first date AND waiting. Waiting is usually (and when I say usually, I mean always...)better. But it almost feels like a lose-lose situation recently. I met a guy a month or so ago and we had a great time and a great night (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) and we talked for a few days after and he threw the whole, "I can't want to see you again and I miss you and you are amazing!" routine at me...and then stopped talking to me. Just stopped. No warning, no reason...nothing. So then I go on a date last week and it was FANTASTIC! We had a great time and we meshed really well. I made it a point to NOT sleep with him because I have decided to reinstate my Third Date Rule (no funny business until AT LEAST the third date). He was respectful of this and he was really great about it...and we even talked after he left for the night. The next day...nothing. Once again, completely ignored. We even made plans for a second date and he just stopped talking to me -- once again with no reason or explaination.

Men -- HOW DO YOU THINK THIS IS OKAY TO DO?!?!? I prefer honesty...and I will be the first to say, "Hey, I think you're a great guy, just not the guy for me" because I think it is respectful towards the other person. I mean, I can take a hint...but seriously? Why is it that there is not enough respect out there to tell a woman why you are no longer going to see her or talk to her? It is OKAY to not be into her...I am not offended when I am told this; I am THANKFUL. This way, neither one of us is wasting our time.

So guys...if you don't like us, tell us. You don't want to hurt us? You are hurting us more by ignoring us and not giving us any explaination. So put on your big girl panties and deal with it.
