It Gets One Step Worse...

Apr 05, 2008 12:19

I am sleeping.

It's 7:40 AM.

My cell rings.  It's Psycho (my new pet name for my cube neighbor).  I push the button to make the ringing stop, but it allows the caller to go to voice mail.  Five minutes later, my voice mail makes its happy little bling bling sound.  I open the phone to make it shut up, and it does.

I go back to sleep mildly annoyed that she would call me that early assuming I'd be up.  Dick.

So when I do wake up, I grab the phone and listen to the message.  She said: "At first I admired you for being able to do the one night stand thing, but now that I've thought about it I think you're a dumbass.  You could get hurt or killed doing that and its just not safe.  I was angry but now I am exasperated by you.  I don't know what to say since this seems to be the only way that we can talk is by email or messages.  I just can't put my thoughts into words.  I am just exasperated with you.  Exasperated.  You're the only one I care about since my Grandmother died.  I am exasperated with you and I just think you're a dumbass.  Exasperated. And that laugh while I was angry...That's all I have to say for now.  Bye."

I'm like: WTF?!

You phoned me at 7:40 AM to repeat incoherently into the phone (It took me playing the message twice to extract any information from the message since it was disjointed.  Above is what I could glean from her ramblings.) that you think I'm a dumbass and you are exasperated with me?!   WTF.

Then I thought to myself, being just awakened by Stupid, that perhaps I'm going to have to let the Psycho completely go and not even be friends with her.  She's got this relationship going on in her head (
lupus_argentum is correct) that Isn't Happening.  Evar.  So OMG no.  I'm confused by the whole thing and its drama.  Drama really pisses me off lately, which is also something of a difficulty on my part because I'm judging her pretty harshly...but with good cause.  So I calm down...play the message one more time so I really get it...and realize that she thinks we are going out and we are NOT.

Now, that will NEVER happen.

So, I'm thinking about a nice, easy let down.  Like: "I met someone over the weekend I really like", "I'm really needing some space right now", "I'm really not ready for a relationship right now", "You scare the shit out of me go jump in a lake", "Can we go to the roof so I can push you off before you kill me", "Do I need a restraining order?" and my favorite: "Please fuck off.  Have a nice day!"

I have no other recourse.  If you come up with something, let me know.
