Philosopher Redux

January 11th, 2009

I swear I can’t even make this up. Here is an actual text message conversation that took place just now:

Him: Hey jane. Up for chatting?

Me: Who is this?

Him: The Philosopher from yahoo. We hung out about a year ago.

Me: Geez, yes I remember now. But no, not really interested in chatting.

I mean seriously. Seriously! In case you have managed to forget, please review the tale of The Philosopher. So after all of that, he somehow seriously thought a year later I would want a booty call from him? Yeah, not so much. I hope that was a sufficiently clear answer.

There was dead silence after my last text to him. Let’s hope it stays that way. Forever.

    I did a combo cringe/laugh-out-loud reading the tales of the Philosopher. I can’t believe he contacted you again! Wow. Guys just don’t get it.

    I’m just sorry I forgot my previous resolution to tell him he was bad in bed if he ever contacted me again. That would have been comedy gold.

    I need some morning coffee mow. I went back and read the other post. I keep wondering what kind of guy would do something like that. Holy crap, I’m deleting my account on yahoo personals right after this.

    Unfortunately, guys like this are everywhere. Don’t give up on Yahoo all together just because of this fool. But the good news is that good guys are hiding everywhere too. They are just much harder to find.

    what a piece of work. and you’re so right, those guys are everywhere.

    We just have to watch out for ourselves, is all.

    HAHA this is the thumb sticker in your mouth guy! *giggle* Only you Jane my friend, only you.

    I find the hypothetical baby abortion promise to be the funniest bit about him. ;)

    Yeah, I was just going to remind you of what you said, “Hopefully, that is the end of this story. If not, next time I will tell him the sex was bad and I’m never going to sleep with him again. Hopefully that will be sufficient damage to his ego to make him disappear”

    But he may not need the ego damage. You told him you weren’t interested in chatting, which should give him the hint that you’re also not interested in “chatting.”

    Yeah, that is the general hope. I think it was pretty clear and he seemed to take the hint.

    Men are ridiculous sometimes. This has happened to me a number of times – the resurrection of some dude that I forgot about ages ago. Good for you for saying you weren’t interested in chatting!

    With him “chatting” is the opening to weaseling his way into my apartment for sex. Which really wasn’t going to happen. So yeah, none of that.

    Yup, I can totally see how the DTM approach would be very helpful in this situation. What a wacknut!

    Heh, DTM is not even necessary here. He’s annoying and bad in bed. I cut him off gleefully. I save full scale DTM for people that are more of a struggle. ;)

    Wow. Just – wow (I went back and read the previous entries). Wow.

    It’s kind of fabulous (in a sick kinda way) isn’t it? I mean seriously.

    I second Singlegal’s wow. How do these guys make it through life with so few functioning brain cells?

    I think his hypothetical baby ate them.
