It's Like a TV Drama...Only Real
This is my life. Apparently it's so sad and pathetically boring that drama comes to find me everywhere I go just to spice up the boring bits.
A guy I used to...date? not really. We had a relationship but we never claimed each other as boyfriend/girlfriend. I'm sure many of you that know me have heard the stories. He's the reason I dropped out of college and the reason I moved back to Raleigh instead of staying in the mountains. No matter the insanity we had, I swore we'd always be friends.
Until Sunday July 4, 2010.
To make this really long dramatic story short, the ass hat has been lying to me for the last three years... and then some. I made a point to call him at least every couple of months to see how his life was going. I'd tell him about my relationships and their ups and downs and constantly ask him about whether he was dating anyone or not. He always replied that he was too busy working and he had too much stress and drama from being on probation to ever date. Well apparently he wasn't as busy as he claimed since he got married three years ago this September. Yeeeah. I had called him last month to wish him a happy Birthday and see how things were going and we talked very briefly. Then Sunday morning almost a month later I get a hang up call from his cell phone...so weird since he hardly ever calls. Then someone begins a texting war with me claiming to be his wife. Of course I know the kind of women he dated in the past and I just figured it was some insecure girlfriend that decided to add extra claim on him by claiming to be his wife. NOPE! Dude LIED to me for the last three years...he's been married to this woman and oh yeah they have a 10 month old child.
Post text war, he calls me and while on speaker phone tells me that he is married and yes they have a kid and Oh by the way I need to quit being some psyhco and stop calling him and leave him alone. WTF?! Um, okay seriously? what have you been smoking?!? I thought we were friends and he never even said he was dating anyone let alone that he'd gotten married! That's alright though, I taught him never to call an "ex" on speaker phone where the little woman can hear things you've apparently been hiding all along. And just in case either of them gets around to reading my blog... I lived with him for two years in college ;-) and he was the one lying about our relationship, why would I need to lie? I've moved on and obviously since he's been keeping our past a secret, he hasn't.
I wasn't hurt by the fact that the jerk got married or that he had a kid, I was hurt that I was under the impression we were friends and he never told me those things. I'd have loved to share in his happiness at starting a family just as I'd have loved to share the same with him one day. Too bad, so sad dude you burned this bridge.
Word to the wise? You wanna keep someone as a friend? Don't lie.
