Like why you so obsessed with me?
When did men decide it was okay to use a female’s friends to get her attention? Ok, perhaps if the man did not know the female, going through her friends could make sense. That is not the case. In the past week, three grown men have either used me to get to an ex or have used my friends to try to get to me. Let’s go over these lovely tales.
1. My roommate’s ex first texts me, then hunts me down on campus to get ahold of her. Let’s look at the facts here. She still has the same number. She has a Facebook. She has a Twitter. Did he try to contact her these ways and fail? No. He went straight for me. LAME.
2. An ex of mine “accidentally” texts my BEST friend acting like he is talking to another girl about inviting her to watch a movie. Note, he has never met my best friend. My best friend is from Texas. He is from Connecticut. I met him at school. He only had her number because I am a medical nightmare and was dying or something once. Does he have my number? yes. email? yes. facebook? yes. address? yes. Did he utilize these? NO.
How hard is it to say “hey you, i’m seeing other people.” or more likely what is really meant “hey you, i’m not seeing other people but how would you react if i was?”
3. This individual is the only one who I give half a pass to for not using direct communication, but this one gets a little out of hand.
First off, my number has not changed, and we are “facebook friends”. We also used to work together. I still work at this establishment.
Incident 1: My friend was at his new job, having a drink. He makes a point to go talk to her. Ok, that makes sense. We all worked together. What doesn’t make sense is that he told her to tell me that he “likes my new facebook picture”. Isn’t there a button for that? OMG CRAZY THOUGHT. Whatever.
Incident 2: He is on infamous facebook again posting statuses and songs. 98% of which were about me on this night. Why are you posting songs that are clearly about me when your baby mama already wants to murder me in my sleep? If you are going to do that, why not just talk to me and delete the messages? wowww crazy concept.
Incident 3: So my good friend and future roommate texts me about the posts mentioned above. I make a silly facebook status and tag her in it. Here it is below:
“I love the texts i get from my friends about my life and the situations in it. People know me too well. Laughing at this convo with (insert friends name)”
Last time I checked that has no mention of a guy in it right? He proceeds to write an ambiguous message on her facebook wall for the whole world to see… She had no idea what it meant. Neither did I. Apparently, IT WAS ABOUT ME, or more so an attempt to talk to me. SHOCKERRRRRRR.
Ok, I mean his baby’s mother wants to run me over with a car. Talking to me may not be the best idea, but neither is talking ABOUT me.
Moral of the story: if you feel you cannot talk TO a person, do NOT use their friends to relay messages for you. Most likely, if you feel you can’t or shouldn’t talk TO them, you shouldn’t talk ABOUT them. You make yourself look weak like a little kitten.
That is all.
