Deja Vu

Don’t want your hand this time
I’ll save myself
Maybe I’ll wake up for once

-Evanescence


The new guy says he really wants to see me but he's going through a divorce and his ex has hired someone to follow him taking pictures.  (For what purpose?  Texas is a no-fault, community property state.) 

I want to see you but... Didn't I just end this game with someone else?  Don't want to play any more. 

Me:  Having a deja vu moment.
Him:  Deja vu moment?
Me:  Like maybe I should tell you to call me when you're ready to do some of these things we're talking about.
Him:  I can't wait.
Me:  Good.  Go sort out whatever you need to sort out then come back and prove it.
Him:  I will.

I'll let you know if and when he does.

    I expect he has kids. And younger ones at that. So, while Texas is a no-fault State I'm certain that there is a profound Morals component to whom has access to the kids. It could be that a fling with you would deny him any contact 'til his kids are adults.
    If not he is full of shit. For that's the ONLY reason acceptable.

    I wouldn't bother. I'd dig my tomatoes instead.

    Have a nice day, Boonie

    Relationships are always complicated; probably more so these days with instant communications. Good luck.

    I hope he gets things figured out and calls! But don't wait for him if someone interesting comes along.

    I think you handled that PERFECTLY.

    BTW - Does anyone else think the name "Evanescence" sounds like a deodorant spray ?

    Oooooh. I'm intrigued...but that's about it. I'm glad you gave him the (at least temporary)boot. See? This is the problem: Everyone who's an adult comes with BAGGAGE.
    It sounds like HIS baggage is particularly nasty.
    Tread lightly, sweetie...
