This guy definitely isn't worth your time Schnitzy. He obviously just views you as a stepping stone to get him from relationship to relationship, because he only wants your company when he's single and drops you like a sack of potatoes when he's not.

My advice is to completely cut all contact from this worm. And if he keeps coming around, get someone to "teach him a lesson". I'd gladly do it if I lived closer.

I understand that he was a long-time friend, but trust me, people change. You're better off without him in your life. You're young, and have plenty of time to meet new people.

So I've been talking to a girl I work with for quite some time. We've been hugging each other, going out of our ways to see each other, so on and so forth. My unloader buddies convince me to pursue her so we start texting each other alot. I've been trying to get us to hang out outside of work for a while now, and both times she cancelled last minute.

Well today we're at break together and earlier in the day I told her I've been having a bad week. (Grandma died, Best friend fired from work, and the two times she cancelled us hanging out) Well some other guy comes out on break and their all over each other. After he leaves I ask if their going out and she says she's in a single period for a few months, but after that she says she'll be dating him. I asked where do I fit in this picture and I told her I liked her, and she laughed at me. She says I wasn't making it clear enough that I liked her and she doesn't like shy guys. Now, I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure that I made it perfectly clear I liked her a lot.

It wouldn't bug me so much, but she fucking laughed at me, right in my fucking face, after I told her what a shitty week I've had. I'm used to being shot down, but at least have some fucking decency about it.

But what do I know. I'm just a shy guy. I think I need to heed the advice of my father, and several co-workers, and keep my pen out of the company ink.
