Aggressor Update

Seriously people, I cannot make this shit up.
Here's a glimpse into a day in the life of POM.
A little Messaging from Thursday:

Aggressor: Hi. I've been thinking about you. I have some of your stuff at my house. Can we get together?

Me: Hi. Yes, how about we meet next week on our lunch hour. (I figured that would be the safest and I want my Cole Hann shoes back!)

Aggressor: How about today?

Me: I'm really busy. How about next week? (I wasn't really busy, but didn't feel like dealing with it)

Aggressor: Next week is like next year. Can we meet for a drink tonight?

Me: I have plans (A 2nd little white lie, but I know where the "drink" can lead to)

Aggressor: Well, when then?

Me: Lunch next week. (HELLO? How many times do I have to say this?)

Aggressor: What about this weekend? (I told you - he's aggressive!)

Me: I am dating someone (a 3rd little white lie). I don't want to inconvenience you, so next week during our lunch break will work best.

Aggressor: That's ok. It's was all my fault. I would like to get together to talk this through. Ok?

Me: Talk? About what? (Seriously does he want like a post-dating conference?)

Aggressor: Just talk about what happened between us. I know you're dating someone but is it bad that I want to .... with you again? (Yes, you can fill in the blank).

Me: Yes it's bad and it's not gonna happen.

I mean REALLY. That is one aggressive mo fo. Have you ever dated a guy who wants to talk about what happened? Usually don't they just run for the hills? For some reason this just struck me as hilarious.

Song of the day: Crack Rock by The Dogs

    I had one one time that after I was being nice and told him "I just didn't think we were compatible" wanted me to give him a list of specific reason we weren't compatible. I was like come on, seriously dude...we went out for like a month.

    I had one of those, once. And I would "get together" to talk about it, and it does go elsewhere. But, in my defense, he was very....skillful.

    Last week he contacted me on Facebook to let me know he'd been thinking about me a lot lately, and thought we should "talk" again. Except it's been 6 years, I'm married, and I left Los Angeles. So I ignored him. :)

    Dude, you might have to say goodbye to those shoes. Or meet him for a "drink" to get your stuff and then bring someone with you. :)

    PS I dated this guy like 10x over. Seriously. One contacted me AFTER HE GOT MARRIED and wanted to say "goodbye" when I was moving to the West Coast. Um, no.

    Seriously, this was absolutely classic! LOVE the way you handled it! As for your "little white lies", they are nothing compared to his lie..."I would like to get together to talk this through"..talk my ass, like he finally said - he wants to get it on with POM!!!!
    For real, highlight of my day! I've been dealing with the "headache" that comes from being "hit by the anvil" too many times!
