So I did it, made the dreaded phone call to “break up” with my boyfriend…. of two WHOLE…dates.<\/p>\n

Why was I breaking up with a guy I only went out with twice? Because he was already naming our children and I needed to put a stop to it. \u00a0I called him and went into it immediately…<\/p>\n

“I know I told you where I was at in the beginning but I just wanted to be up front with you again because I know you are making all these plans and I don’t want to lead you on. I had a great couple of dates with you but I don’t think I should be dating, it’ s not really a priority and I don’t want to be a girl using you for company, dinners, or anything. I hope you understand.”<\/p>\n

He immediately responded with: “No, I don’t understand. Why don’t you want to date me?! Explain this to me.”<\/p>\n

Whoa buddy, what the hell? It took everything in me not to laugh at that…and that would have been the most he’s made me laugh.<\/p>\n

I proceeded to explain. Not much though. Just enough to get him to understand I wasn’t interested. \u00a0After breaking it down, I thought for sure he had it now…<\/p>\n

“I had a great time with you, but I wouldn’t think much of it afterwards. That should say something about our connection, or lack there of, and a lot about where I am right now. I don’t want to be the rude girl who blows you off, so I am being up front now.”<\/p>\n

Nope, he didn’t get it.<\/p>\n

“Why couldn’t you make an exception for me?…That doesn’t make sense.”<\/p>\n

Oh you bet I was done explaining myself at this point….<\/p>\n

“Listen, I am not explaining myself to you, or anyone else ok? I am calling to thank you for being nice to me but I am also calling to let you know this won’t be going any further.”<\/p>\n

He stayed quiet for a bit and then said ” Well enjoy getting\u00a0acclimated\u00a0here in LA…take care, bye.”<\/p>\n

Damn.\u00a0All that nagging and drama and I didn’t even get any sex out of it. What a waste. I should be given a fucking medal of \u00a0AWESOME for this one.<\/p>\n
