I try to keep my blogs humorous. If a 41 year old single can't find humor in their dating life they might as well forget about it!
However, this time I am blogging because I am totally and completely pissed!!! I dated a guy, Mike White, for 3 years. That is longer than a lot of marriages! Mike wasn't perfect and neither was I. But I was crazy about Mike and thought he was the "one." Mike had other ideas. But that's okay. Time and distance have let me see how much better off I am without Mike White!!!
Two of my bff's thought Mike was gay. (Yes, that made my day!) Mike wasn't gay. Mike and I met through an online dating site and he went right back to that site to find the next one. Of course, he married the next one. (One of the reasons we broke up was because he had decided he was too old to have children.) And he and the next one have an adorable baby girl. And I am okay with that! Seriously, I am okay with that!
But, M.W. and I had dated for 3 years. We had become an important part of each other's lives. I loved his parents, siblings, nieces, etc. He loved my parents. His family loved me. My family loved him. When we finally broke up we kept in contact for a while. Finally, when he started seeing his then future wife we parted company with the exception that we wanted to know when someone in our families died. I assume his immediate family is still doing okay since I haven't heard any differently. (I have changed phone numbers since then, but I still have the same email address!)
I lost my father in January. I debated on letting M.W. know about it, but I knew I would want to know if either of his parents had passed away. I had one of my bff's send him a message through facebook. He got the message. He actually responded to her message.
I, of course, have not heard a word from him. No funeral home visitation, no phone call, no email, no freakin' telegraph! Seriously?! We dated for 3 years, we spent lots of time with each others' families. My dad dies. I am a single, only child; my father dies and I don't even get a sympathy card in the mail?
Yes, M.W. totally and completely pissed me off! But guess what? After all of these years, I have finally realized that M.W. is and was a complete jerk! Not worthy of me!!!
Btw - my bff's told me they were glad M.W. didn't show up at the funeral because they were certain Dad would have come up out of the coffin and hurt him! lol
