A very familiar scenario. Fight fire with fire! Damn their callousness! Pretend that you don't care!
...or wait for the call.
you just need to let go! there's more fish in the sea! Plus Winters is right just ignore her and then she'll probably call you.
Arrrghhh... The "I've been busy" excuse! Ignore it for a while. She'll call and ask why you haven't been in touch, and you can deliver that same line with equal cool.
Love that finger in the last scene! ;)
Waiting for the call sucks.
So then I get impatient and call.
But that doesn't seem to work.
It just makes you look like a desperate freak...
Gav: Unfortunately, my gut feeling wants to respond with "I bet she hasn't". Hehe, thanks, he was ticked off! Hahaha.
Maddy: You're welcome! :-D And thank YOU for stopping by!
Winters: But that's exactly it, I have to pretend I don't care. I'm just waiting until I really don't care anymore.
PiCkLeS: I know, I know! I've let go as much as I can, but even from a friend point of view, it's still annoying if a friend promises to keep in touch but never does. This isn't the first instance and I'm sure it's not the last. It's disappointing. Are you suggesting I should "let go" of even being friends?
And yep, to you and Winters, I am trying to ignore her right now. Let's see how long I can keep it up for? *sigh*
Chicky: I doubt I'll hear from her again any time soon, but here's hoping I'm proved wrong.
Hehe, glad you love the little angry dude! :-D So do I! Hehe.
Melb.Train: Heh. I'm trying not to look like a "desperate freak". Every time I get the urge to call her, I supress it by saying, "Well fuck her, she never calls me! I can find someone better!" ... but yeah, sometimes it's easier said than done.
Oh babes, it's usually the girl I hear of these scenarios.
An eye opener.
Don't wait around for the call, if she's not calling you need to let go. I know its a nice idea to 'be friends' after a relationship, sometimes it take a while to get there other times it just doesn't work.
Here's a question for you: Why don't you call someone when you say you will?
Love is hard and a broken heart is hard to mend.
BTW - I love the little guys finger :-)
I swear at my phone often too.
I think you should ignore her. If she wants to be friends with you then SHE has to make the effort.
but can you ever really be just friends with your ex? ;)
Usually it's the guy that doesn't call! It sort of sucks hon ;(
Well, At least she has not rung a mutual friend to tell you that she does not want to speak to you, leaving you in the dark as to the whole situation, Refusing to speak about the issue even one little bit :-P
Yes, I know things are different, but I’m not over it :P
I find apartness such as this interesting. With a friend who is just a friend I’d never get that upset about quietness in the friendship, but in relationships that means allot to me I get very upset. So I think that you’re relationship means allot to you, but not her. Perhaps you’re relationship still means too much for you, Is it really more than just a mutual friendship? (Try asking yourself what other friendships whould get you this upset in this situation) And, yes maybe you need to let go of being friends? But don’t go to the stage of being enemies!
The other .J.
Ha!!
I have a lot of 'friends' like this.
God, I hate that feeling. wow. I really do.
Update: I just bumped into her on my lunchbreak. We caught up and chatted just fine, as usual, but no mention of the never-returned-contact. Also strangely enough, although I managed to keep my cool (laughing and joking the whole time), I returned to the office sweating profusely. That girl gives me instant panic attacks, apparently. Haha. Emotions suck! :-P
Natalie: I usually do call people if I say I will... especially if they've made a fuss about it in the past and I feel guilty for forgetting.
I want it to work, I guess. But it doesn't look like it will. I don't think she wants it to work. :-(
Ah well, such is life I guess.
Steph: I'm trying, Steph.
M: I hope so...
JackT: I like your policy! In fact, I've often said that in the past; "I don't have time for people who don't have time for me." ... But now it's being put to the test. Can I stand by it? We'll see.
Mr J: Yeah, I think you're getting close to it.
Ultra: Really? How do you manage it?
~d: Don't we all. :-(
" Are you suggesting I should "let go" of even being friends?"
I'm saying that you can't treat it as though you guys are normal friends because you're obviously not (with the histroy you have). If you truly were friends, friendship shouldn't take that much effort and it shouldn't be a situation where you get upset that when they haven't called. Shows that your still holding on.
Let go.
If it's meant to be it will happen but for now you need to work on yourself.
So true...
Pickles: *sheepish grin* Yes, mum. :) hehehe. Seriosuly, some good advice. All I gotta do is stick to it.
Wendy: Yeah. Thanks for stopping by :)
Go Jeut! You don't need her.
You know, jeut, if you can manage to get the emotions out of it...and keep the sex...well. Just a thought. She deserves to go to Hell.
Susanne: Thanks! :-D
~d: Regarding the first part of your comment... heh, I have a seperate post in mind about that which I may or may not draw later. As for the second part; she's actually a nice girl, but we're just going through a not-nice moment. *sigh* Yes, there are times I wish she'd go to hell. There are other times where I wish we'd just get over everything and go back to being friends.
Kerry: Hehe, thanks Kazza. ;-)
You are so right about emotions sucking. I wish I could cut mine out and stick them in a jar on a dusty shelf. *sigh* will never happen though.
I'm too impatient to wait for a call. I've heard "I'll call in the next day or two" and after four days I called the whole thing off. Then decided it didn't matter, then called it off. I think I'm an emotional yo-yo at times.
I havent actually seen him since that night anyway.
I have you on RSS feed so I get to read your comics when you post them. But I have to break my silence and say something about this one...
This is me this week!!
phishez: Good on you for having the strength to call it off!
missy: Thanks for stopping by! :) ... Yeah, it happens to the best of us.
yeeeeaaahhhh. its back on. my bad
Hahaha. Haven't you learnt anything yet? :-P
Nah seriously, hope it's all good. ;-)
