By the way....

Lately those three words have meant nothing but doom and gloom for little ol' me. Why is bad news always disguised as an afterthought? It's very sneaky i find. And it happens alot. I'm sure all of you out there have had the "Oh, by the way..." bad news. It takes many forms. "By the way... your fish is dead", "by the way... you have two days to live", "by the way... you are no longer needed in this job", "by the way... I accidentaly butchered your cat, Tigger with a machete." Kinda weird how people think if i act like i forgot to tell you, but then just remembered before you left, it won't be as bad as if i just told you straight out. The most recent of these "afterthoughts" i have been victim to is the legendary "by the way... i'm actualy seeing someone else". Ummm, why didn't this come out before? You could have told me the first time i saw you, or the second. Maybe the third? All better options than sending a msg saying "can't catch up tonight, sorting something out, i will explain it all later". Once again the real message is disguised. So, i called him. here is a summary:
Me: "Whats wrong?"
Him: "Nothing, don't worry, ill tell you later"
Me: "Is it something to do with me?"
Him: "Uh, kinda"
Me: "Dont you think i should know then?"
Him: "Uh, yea, i guess"
Pause
Me:"Well.... what is it?"
Him: "Uh, i gotta sort something out"
Me:"Like what? with me or what?" (yep, im a bit confused)
Him: ""No, uh.. im kinda seeing someone else"
Me: "WHAT!"
Him: "I know i should have told you before..
Me: (inturupting) "Yes, you should have"
Him: ".. but i didnt"
Me: "So, if i hadnt called you, when would you have told me this?"
Him: "Dunno"
Me: "So why sort this out now? why not before?"
Him: "She found out about the weekend"
Pause
Him: "I'm sorry, i dont want to hurt you"
Me: "Too late."
Pause
Me: "you bastard, i hope your dick falls off in a freak nuclear accident"
well, i didn't say that last bit, but i wanted to.
Him: "Can we still be friends?"
Me: "That would be a bt weird, wont it?"
Him: "Uh..... i still wanna hang out with you, you are a cool chick" (damn, i hate that too!)
Me: "I dont think its a good idea, look i gotta go. bye"
Him "B (i hung up)
I had to go contemplate the best revenge and my own doom at the same time. yep, im the Queen of multitasking! I didnt do either. revenge aint worth it and neither is he. Bastard. So, guys suck and apparently im a cool chick. Ugh. Everyones friend, no ones lover. The Simple Life of Me. But im over moping. just thought i would show you how hopeless the male population can be. thats all from me for now, gotta attempt to do some work.
Good bye cruel world... Till next time.
