Wake Up Call

i look at my phone, dont recognize the number and decide to ignore it. a few moments later my phone alerts me to a voice mail, i check it
Hi this is desiree, christina's friend and i was just looking through my phone and i saw your number and decided to call...
she says a few more things and leaves me a return number. i stumble through my memory trying to recall a christina or desiree...nope nothing coming to mind. just as i was about to erase the message, i decide to call back (mainly because her voice sounded sexy as hell) i figured i would play the part and at the very least get a cheap convo out of this person calling me by mistake.
I call back, no answer. since some time had gone by i assume she must have realized she dialed the wrong number, oh well. voicemail erased. a few moments later the number calls again, i answer.
she clumsily states my name as shes obviously unsure if shes saying it right. now im puzzled because i have no idea who this girl is but she knows my name. after a brief game of connect the mental dots, i find out she was one of the bridesmaids during a wedding in which i was the best man. *light bulb*
after the wedding came the whispers of her interest in me, but i ignored them along with her phone calls until she eventually stopped. I dont know why i never tried to establish some sort of connection with her, and still unsure if i ever will even though shes intelligent, has goals a job making great money, shes cute and her body is on point.
we talked on the phone for a while before she ran into the idea that she may be talking too much and it might scare me off, so the convo awkwardly and abruptly ended. on a more positive note, of all the chicks ive talked to on the phone our conversation was of the painless variety which is a plus.
later that night i got yet another phone call from an old "friend" who jokingly (i think) asked me to seriously consider her for a relationship. shes one of the ones i use to be crazy about, then she dogged the shit out of me. women often do this, go through the bad/tough guy phase then realize changing a man is impossible so they backtrack to guys from the past who actually respected them. too late! and another one bites the dust...
even though i enjoyed our conversation i realized i dont enjoy being the fail safe guy and as i flip through my inventory of relationships and possibles i notice i have spent a lot of time on the sidelines getting heart broken as they play and lose the game, waiting on them to call me in to show them what i can do. long story short, this aint rudy and im a fucking idiot. if anything this is the reason i keep slipping back into the same types of situation.
not that i havent heard this before but for whatever reason, i think she has awakened a sleeping giant
a real woman would kill to have a man like you in her life
I don't even have a real photo of me on that site.
Exes can be trouble.
We all sit back sometimes and wonder just how life might have been different, if only we had followed another path.
Nice post.
I had an ex who had me whipped.
After she broke up with me for cheating on her I was a mess.
Years later, she came back, we hooked up, and she gave me an STD which I passed on to my girlfriend.
Man... when it's over it should be over for good.
PREACH REG!! loving a woman who only loves herself...the story of my life, thankfully now i recognize this. i wont stumble over that rock again
and on a side note thank you both for taking the time to read and comment, its much appreciated.
