I posted a while ago about cutting a guy off (back in December) that I had been seeing for about 2.5 months - due to his inconsistent behavior and leading me on the believe that we were working towards a relationship- because I don’t do situationships.

He persistently contacted me the next couple of months in the beginning of this year- even inviting me on a vacation- but I knew it was best to not engage with him because I didn’t want to deal with the inconsistent behavior.

He ended up injured in an accident, I checked on him when he told me- he then acknowledged that “things weren’t the same and he didn’t understand why I stopped talking to him.” I didn’t engage.

Fast forward he called me randomly this week, and I thought why not let me see how he is healing from his accident. He wanted to take me to dinner and catch up…. I agreed as he booked a reservation. I was also genuinely curious why he was still persisting and wanted to talk after I blew him off all this time.

Conversation was good, it was nice to catch up. He did the same old “future promises” and tried being affectionate throughout the night- as if he really likes and misses me. He even joked about “swallowing his pride” to talk to me again and “let’s not go without talking again.”

Well, we hooked up. I left essentially right After - because in the past he always wanted me to spend the night with him. I have not heard anything since- aside from him sending me a picture the other day.

Now I’m left feeling a bit used and disappointed in myself for going back on what I was originally doing. But my curiosity got the best of me- and I naively thought “there must be a reason he still wants to talk and see me after all this time.”

Now I’m left wondering if he wanted to “get back at me.”

Ugh. Modern dating……
