Me: Adventureland+Mooshu+Thursday. My treat.

Him: Gmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Me: Define gmmmmm?

Him: Great + mmmmmmmmmmm

Me: ;-)

Him: Hi. cuddle.

Me: Still on for tonight?

Him: Hi. I have to work at 7am tomorrow. What time were you thinking?

Me: It's cool, I'll see you some other time.

Him: Oh snap. We can still hang out, I just have to be up early.

Him: Do you use crystal meth (in a photo)

Me: I was going to bring mooshu and beer and arrive at your place after work, but if you have to get up early we can do it another time.

Me: And no, I don't use crystal meth.

Him: Keep Making Noise (in a photo)

Me: Be a winner, not a whiner (in a photo)

Him: You can't handle my sex.

Me: I have no idea what you're saying (in a photo)

Me: I'm sorry if I'm being difficult, but I was really looking forward to sleeping next to you, and when you pulled your whole I've got to get up early thing, I felt like you didn't want to hang out. Sometimes you act like the only person in the world who works early. It's cute ;-)

Him: I am the only person.

Me: And?

Him: Lemme tink [sic]

Me: Nevermind, I've made other plans.

Me: And for the record, I shaved a good portion of my body in anticipation of tonight, so next time you're going to flake out, let me know in advance so I don't waste the effort.

Him: ????? ok ;););) If you wanna stop by later, let me know, I'm watching a movie at my neighbors.

Me: Actually, I'm going to drop off your movie right now, if you're not going to be there, I'll leave it in an envelope at your door.

Him: Yeah, just leave it at the door. Why don't you wanna hang on to it?

AT which point, I PICKED UP MY PHONE (I know, it sounds crazy) and CALLED him. And then, after a bizarre conversation in which I explained to him (he said I yelled) that all I wanted him to do was say he wanted to see me, he appreciated my offer to buy and bring dinner and beer, and that we had made these plans on MONDAY and it was now THURSDAY, we ended up doing what we had planned. However, I feel as though our first fight did not go well. And it may very well be the end of quite a nice relationship. I care about him, a lot at this point.

Ugh. Men.
