It's Raining Men

Men suck. I think that explains everything really. But if you are still not satisfied with this statement, I shall explain. Men really, really suck.

I have had the weirdest week, and it all seemed to revolve around the idiotic actions of males. I say idiotic, but what I mean is .... well, I can't really say. Too many curse words for one blog.
It all started last Saturday night. I was having a drink with my best mate, well, more than one, and having a rather good time. I felt sorry for this poor guy at the bar who seemed lost. So, me being me and quite drunk, I went up to him and said "have you lost something?". Yup, not the best pick up line ever, but it worked. The next day he asked if he could call me and catch up again to which i replied "ugh". Hangovers suck, especially when there is someone else there. The next day he called and we caught up. This went on all week. Till Friday....

I was at my place picking up a few things for that night (yea, I was heading out again) when I got a phone call. It was him. He pretty much got to the point and said "I don't think we should see each other anymore". First, omg, how friggen lame is that statement. We are not in a mills and boons novel. And it had only been a week. Thats not 'seeing someone'. Anyway, he explained that he still had feelings for someone else and that she had been around at his place that night saying that, when she broke up with him, it was not because she didnt like him, it's just that she needs time. I really wanted to tell him that this really means "I don't like you enough to be in a relationship with you, but I like you enough (or the ego bost anyway) to not want you to be with anyone else". He chose to wait till she had "dealt with her issues". I told him to delete my number. I was not overly upset. Actually, I found it rather amusing. But this was the first thing to go wrong.

A mate had come down for the weekend with two of his friends, a couple who really needed to get a room, screw, and get it out of their system. We organised to catch up with them on Thursday ngiht for a few drinks. They had been there all of an hour playing pool, when one of them felt a bit sick and they all had to leave. Not sure why they all left, but I didnt ask questions. We planned to catch up the next night. We had all gone out for tea and they had left to go back to their rooms to get ready. Later we got a message. Someone else was feeling sick, so they decided to stay in their rooms. I was a bit put out, but kinda pleased that I could get some sleep. Saturday night came round. We had planned from the beginning that we would have drinks at my place with a few other people we knew. This is the part that REALLY pissed me off. The other people showed up. I messaged them. And guess what.... one of them felt sick. I was really getting sick of this excuse. The said that they would still try to make it though. A couple of hours later I check my phone and find a couple of messages from them. After a bit of back and forth they tell me they feel sick, arent drinking, but are at the local nightclub playing pool. Now, I must ask, If you are feeling ill, why would you go to a nightclub to play pool? The thing that really got me going was that they chose to play pool over hanging out with us, who are suppose to be thier mates. And they had done this more than once! So, I sent a message saying that it was a bit beyond a joke. He got a bit upset with me for that. The rest of the time I was pretty much ignored, they complained about a few more things, then they left.

The last thing that happened that weekend is the most annoying of them all. I had been 'friends' with a guy for about a year before it was decided that we should end it. He then went overseas on holiday. Friday night (I was suppose to be out, but wasnt due to cancelation - see above) I got a message at about 1 am asking me if I was out or at home from this 'friend'. I said I was home about to watch movie. About an hour later I got a phone call. He asked if he could come around and me, feeling a bit down after being 'dumped', stupidly said yes. So, come around he did, where he proceeded to tell me he missed me, wanted to be with me, but wasnt sure after everything else that had happened (ex wife etc). I was very confused. In the morning he left and I havent heard much since. Awesome. not.

So, I sit here dumped, rejected and confused all thanks to a few males. Ugh, Men suck. Im gonna go make myself a chocolate cake.

Oh, how I wish I had some sage, uplifting advice, but I have less luck then you do with the males of the species so I'll just chime in with a MEN SUCK and see if I can find a nice bucket of water to go drown myself in!

I opted for a nice glass of tequilla. To drown myself in of course!

Smooth move. Beats my philosophy hands down, except tequila makes me vom-vom.

Got any rum?
Got it in black?
Got any blacker?
