Mr. Needy

One week after I asked Mr. Needy to back off, he asked him on a date. I set a date tentatively but cancelled  a couple hours later. I was dreading that second date. I should have just told him I wasn't interested right there, but I was trying to see if I would feel differently giving a little more time. I didn't. A week later he asked me out again. I was still dreading it. So I waited till the next day and sent him this text:

"After the past couple weeks I realize I am not interested in pursuing our relationship further. I wish you the very best luck."

Guy friends told me before that the only way a guy will stop bothering you is if they know you are not interested. No excuses such as "I am too busy right now". Just plain "not interested". 

This is what Mr. Needy replied:

"I was wondering why someone as attractive as you are having trouble with dating sites. Now I know why. Good bye."

Compared to old guys's response, no class and, well, needy. But I take responsibility for dragging it out for two weeks. I should have ended it two weeks ago. It wasn't to say his response two weeks ago would have been less needy and more classy, but at least I would have felt less responsible. Still, Mr. Needy, we have been on one fucking date, and you've been inconsiderate and needy since. I was giving you and myself a chance. I don't owe you a fucking thing. I have dates set up all throughout the weekend. I have no trouble with dating sites. The trouble I have is losers like you.

What I learned: once my "loser-o-meter" is tripped, I should end it immediately.

No more communication.
