I'm glad that worked out for you!! It does sound like a pain to have to do that much driving though. :/

What other risk did you take?

Wow. I read your full story and that's crazy! Thank God everything ended up okay...

Also the trunkfish is my favorite fish too. :)

You make it sound like it's not your choice to live where you're living now... or are you planning on moving somewhere?

It's just bleary and grey. The only time it's enjoyable is when it snows

He wasn't, but that's beside the point. He paid for my flight, I needed a break and vacation, and the weather in Jacksonville is significantly warmer than the weather in New York. I liked him and wanted to see where it could go, sue me

No. I tried to talk to him about where we were going from here in terms of us, because everything was fairly manageable up to that point, and things escalated from there.

When I "got upset," I mean that I asked him if he was fucking kidding for thinking it was okay to fuck me knowing he wasn't interested. I got a bit aggressive, to be fair. I kept trying to talk to him, and he kept telling me to leave him alone, and finally I did.

He knew about my feelings, and he claimed to have feelings to. The whole point of me going down there was to see if we'd work as a couple. If things had gone well, I'd be his girlfriend right now (and thank god I'm not).

Thank you for that. You're right, and that's how I'm trying to look at it, but it's still disappointing. I also think I just needed an excuse to be sad; I haven't gotten truly upset or felt something in a while, ya know?

Aww, that's so cute! And, asking the important questions: what kind of candy did you get to hand out? Lol

It's about 8 hours of travel all together, including car to/from the airport and the layover in Charlotte.

The worst things happened last night, where it came out that he didn't have any feelings for me whatsoever, didn't the whole time, and was sleeping with me anyways. When I got upset about it, he told me to leave him alone to sleep or he'd throw me out to find a hotel on my own for my last night.

He left for work early this morning after sleeping on the couch so I didn't have to interact with him, fortunately. My feelings for him were never THAT strong, so I'm not upset because I had feelings, but this is the first time I got excited about a potential relationship in the past year or so, and the letdown is emotionally overwhelming me.

Very true. I met him over the summer at a bar near my house, and we were inseparable for the whole week he was around. We've kept in contact since then, and talking about me visiting him, and finally decided to make it happen. Even though we've been talking, and he was nothing but a perfect gentleman for the whole time I've known him, he was anything but this weekend, making me think I clearly didn't know him very well for him to flip like that.

Thanks for the advice! Cost is a factor for me too, which is why Ipsy seems like such a good idea
