This is a story I thought I would share with others. Not that I am looking for input or something, but it's just a funny story to share...

 

About two years ago, I met this guy on line. We went out a few times. He told me he had a personality disorder that had caused him to be hospitalized a few times. In an institution. This made me uneasy, I wasn't sure how I felt about being with someone like this. I then decided (after an angry phone call from him saying "I would appreciate it if you called me back sometime!" on my voice mail) that I wouldn't be so nervous about this. Maybe there was nothing to worry about after all. So I returned the call with some lame excuse like "I was busy", and we went out a few more times. I met his friends, who were alright. Nice, church goin' folk. But I blend in with whoever I happen to be with and always find someone to chat with.

 

So then I introduced him to my friends. The next day, he called and broke it off. I think they scared him, or he just didn't like them. Or maybe it was the fact that I smoked. I can't be uneasy about his disorder, but he can be uneasy about the fact that I smoke? Then he deleted me from his friend list on MySpace (not where we met, but the gesture was there).

 

Out of the blue, six months later, he sent me an email through MySpace saying he felt very bad that he had broken things off the way he did. I asked why he chose to do it, he said he couldn't be with someone who smoked, and he felt like when he met my friends that this was my world and he didn't fit into it and felt too insecure. Hmmm ... Then he said that he had a girlfriend now and things were very serious. I left it at that.

 

Then last summer I bumped into him at a concert. He said he was engaged to be married, I said "Hey, way to go!" And meant it. Then he asked if I wanted to go do something with him because his fiancee wasn't interested, I said "Well ... When is it?" He said he would get back to me with the information. I did not respond to his MySpace email, then he deleted me from his friend list AGAIN.

 

I just got a friend request from him in the last few weeks. I denied it.

 

Weird huh?
