This "Maneater" is Taking a Break

My weekend was great, just like I planned and in the space of two days I managed to drop two friends.

Future Husband and Big & Tall are no more.

In my previous post I had my weekend planned out. Everything was going according to my plan. Friday I chilled with my kids at home. Saturday, we went to Chesse'e'Chucky (you know what it is)! After I dropped them off, I went to a fight party at NotSanaaLathans house. I didn't make it home until 5am!

Saturday morning, I attempted to make plans with Future Husband for Sunday. I was going to keep my mid-morning date with Big &Tall and then go to Champs to watch the games with Future Husband. Two dates in one day ain't bad right? Exactly!

As I'm over NotSanaaLathans house, I call Future Husband to see what he's up to. I call...no answer. I get pissed off because through our friendship I feel like he's been playing some childlike games. I leave him a txt message saying the following: I'm going 2 do u a favor b/c calling u/trying 2 c u is a waste of my time. Find urself another chick 2 do this bs with! That is all...have a good night.

I get a quick response back from him saying that he was sleeping and that I need to have some patience. Ummm, kneegrow do I look like I have STUPID on my forehead? He was sleeping and missed the call but damn sure got the txt...does that make any sense? Not to me! I didn't have the fight in me to even respond. He called and left this long drawn out voicemail of how he's not going to call me anymore. I. Hit. Delete. and left it like that.

Sunday, I wake up hella late...like 11am...yes 11am is late for me! So I call Big & Tall and tell him lets push our brunch back and go to lunch instead. He agreed because he had a late night too and wasn't ready. As we plan where to go, we get into a big debate (because I don't argue) about I.hop. Yes, I.hop is where he planned to take me. No, I'm not knocking I.hop at all because I've been there plenty of times but not with a guy that was trying to be in a serious relationship with me. So he asked "where else can we go, since you're too good for I.hop?" I named a few other places and he said "oh, you just want me to spend some money, huh?" I laughed at his dumbass and he told me he would call me when he was finished getting dressed.

By the end of our conversation/debate (because I don't argue), I had no intentions of going anywhere with him, so I grabbed my covers off the bed, moved to my couch, popped in a movie and drifted back to la la land.

He send me a txt at 8pm asking "so what are we doing?" I replied to him just like this: {insert his full name} may I ask what u think this is or who u think u r? I suggest u go out and have a good time 2night with someone other than me. He called, I didn't answer. He called again, I turned my phone off and went back to sleep.

This ladies and gentlemen are some of the examples of why I'm taking a much needed break. As much as I would like to be in a relationship, I refuse to settle for a man that:

1) doesn't have enough time for me, plays games and lies (oooohhh, I despise liars)

and

2) stands me up trying to prove something to his-self

As of today, I will not take any phone calls, go on any dates, return any txt and all voicemails will be deleted. I'm taking this break until 2/21/08. A month will give me sometime to just focus on ME! I know I told myself to date every man I meet, but screw that and screw them!

Don't call me, I'll call you!
