Pining after 6 month's!!! NOT!!!

He though I was pining for him after 6 months!!!!! I mean really!!!

Ok so the other day I got this text (SMS) asking me to call X (for the sake of anonymity lets leave it at this).

Now I didn’t recognise the number, but since the person knew my name and the text seemed kinda intimate i thought, let’s call, let me waste my credit and find out who this person is.

The first few minutes of the conversation went like this …..

Him - Hello? Who’s this?

Me - This is me, you sent me a text saying to call you, who are you?

Him - Oh I’m X don’t you remember me?

Me – Um, No

Me - Which X, I know a lot of X’s which one are you?

Him - You mean you don’t remember me?

Me - No, who are you?

So he started quoting dates, meetings and friends.

It was the name of a friend of mine that made the whole thing click and I was like,

Oh, it you, how are you?

Then he became angry, all how could I not remember him, how could I be so blasé, he was sure I was pretending I did not know him.

Now being a very practical person and knowing that my credit was running out swiftly, I stopped him mid stream and asked what he wanted, after all, based on the text, he wanted me to call I did, and no I was not pretending not to know him, 6 months is a long time, and I’ve had other things on my mind, thank you very much.

So being a typical male he went to the ego control department and came up with the mother of all stupid thing to say and made me wonder just how stupid men think women are?

He said - I know I’ve not called you in a while and you were hurt, but that’s no reason to be like that?

Me - Oh my God!! (laugh, laugh some more, uncontrollable laughter, interspersed with so sorry, really not really laughing at the situation, just laughing at you, laugh some more)

When I finally get a hold of myself all I could say was, ‘do you really imagine that I have nothing else to do with my life than to pine after you'?

You really thought that I’ve spent the last 6 months by the phone waiting for it to ring!!!!

(Laugh some more, totally uncontrollable laughter)

He - Get upset and hang up.

Me – Continue laughing for about 30 minutes afterwards

Looking back though, do men really think women are so desperate they will hang around a phone for 6 months just so they would call?

If guys think so, I will suggest they take a chill pill cus I have better things to do.

If you don’t call and I want to talk to you, I will call, if neither calls, let’s agree that we are both adults and can live quite comfortably without each other. Sheesh
