Not my favorite

 Waking up to a text from my ex bf's ex baby mama.........not my favorite.

over a year ago i engaged with her when she called my phone at 6:00am and i answered it because i thought it was a staff member calling out of work.  I didn't recognize the number.  I admit, i found some pleasure in her crazy. I admit, I enjoyed knowing exactly how she felt and i hoped she was a nervous wreck that would be told she was "crazy". 

You stupid bitch.  You knew you were running around with someone elses man, you knew your happiness was on another womans tears....and then you think you are going to get understanding from her?'

fuck off.

I still remember that pain.  I still remember how that whole situation deconstructed how i felt about myself, my place in the world and men.  

I had a family, i had friends, i had a home for the first time in my life and i had a man that was a pain in the ass, irresponsible, and selfish but i loved him.  Good or bad.  And I lost all of that because of HIM, not her.  She didn't owe me anything, but he did.  So i sent her one message and told her.

And she decided to carry on with him.

You got what you deserved.  They both did.

And so did I.  Because i'm not sharing my life with a man who cheats on me and i don't have to co-parent with a woman who cares only for herself.  

Karma bitches.

I'm liking this new man.  We are getting to know each other.  He calls me like a grown up.  There are some concerns, but i'm keeping my eyes open.  He does make me laugh.  Loudly.  He surprises me, and i like how he talks to and treats his dogs.

That matters.

He may make me cry eventually.  I guess thats a risk i have to take.

Let's talk about Mr. Racecar

 I admit it.  I am a little bit excited about meeting Mr. Racecar.   He's younger- 53 He's taller, and bigger than me He has tats, bald head and long beard He builds cars/trucks and drag races - own his shop which is attached to his home.  ONE is a Camaro.  It sounds NASTY. He lives an hour away Now......here's what happens in my head:  What the hell could this man possibly see in me?  Why would he want to meet me?  He- owns a Harley but hasn't ridden it in a few years due to a car accident that left him unable to walk again until recently. He is a typical male in that some of his talk tries to lead me down the "lets talk about sex, baby, lets talk about you and me" side of things, which I have successfully diverted without him losing interest. I'm looking to date, to find the man I want to have a relationship with, not a situationship. And then I had to explain what a situationship is because he has only just started dating again, and he is ...

I love ChatGPT

 I am extremely transparent with my emotions because i do not have the ability to NOT be.  My only option when i'm having any feelings is to talk in a very low, slow, monotone voice and keep my face as blank as i possibly can. Unless they mean something to me. Unless i care about them and how they treat me.  So while i'm perfectly okay with never seeing or hearing from Mr. Cigar again, in light of his true self unveiling, I am overthinking my expression of emotions to him.   I took this little conversation and put it into ChatGPT with no questions or directions and this is what i got back: This exchange captures a painful and emotionally charged moment. Your initial message was heartfelt, vulnerable, and expressed a genuine desire for connection and acknowledgment. His response, while polite on the surface, carried a sharp undercurrent of blame and finality—deflecting accountability and subtly rewriting the narrative as your fault. Ending it with “safe travels ...

I danced.

 This past Saturday night i revisited what it felt like to be the zero fucks ME.   I had talked myself out of going out that night.  I dragged my ass around the house and thought of every reason to text my girlfriend an excuse about why i wasn't going out. I had many valid reasons.  Putting on real clothes, trying to make myself attractive, going somewhere i've never been all by myself to walk up to a man i've been talking to, but haven't ever met face to face.   Okay, Mb.  Just put on your sassy pants and go do it.  Nothing to lose, everything to gain.   But PJs.   No.   On my way I get a text from my gf, she's running late.  When i get to the venue I ask her "how late" and she says about 1/2 an hour. She's picking up our other 2 girlfriends. Do i sit out here in the car for half an hour like a baby when his gig starts in half hour, or do i go inside by myself (getting used to that) and find him, say hello ...
