Alright brehs, I dropped a little knowledge earlier as a divorced dude. Now I come seeking knowledge.
I dropped this one girl I work with after her blowing me off on a 'hang out' invite for the second time. Have to have scruples, not accept shabby behavior, all that good stuff.
So I subsequently started messing with this girl from an online dating site, and she's pretty chill. One thing is she's a teacher, and we started meeting up etc right in the middle of her exam period. So she's crazy busy and says we can catch up after the exams are done.
We've hung out twice, but I'm pretty sure she's dating other dudes. Which she can. We're certainly not exclusive at this early, early stage.
My thing is, though, I'm not dating any other broads. I'm interested in this girl. And I'm thinking all of this time she's busy working on exams, surely some of that time is dedicated to trial dates with other cats.
Am I antiquated in my thinking? Should I be chasing skeezers off on the side? I should mention this teacher and I, we text daily. We talk on the phone every other day. She got liquored and texted me saying she liked me. Things are positive.
And if I'm being honest, modern women being so wretched, I just don't have the energy or patience to pretend to like the ones I don't, when I genuinely quite like this one and want to smash for the right reasons (ie not out of a sick, desperate loneliness).
Thoughts?
Sounds like what I JUST came out of
Met girl on POF, we texted everyday for over two months, hung out several times, talked on phone, emailing funny pictures of us a kids, made lil comments towards each that I
THOUGHT would indicate we were at least exclusive and potentially serious down the road. To me, talking everyday for 8-9 weeks made me think we were together.
I cut off all my other chicks - because I truly liked this girl, she got my jokes, I got hers, we laughed....liked the same songs....we just clicked on nearly every aspect. Had me like
She had began going back to college/school this semester, and she got a part time job as well. But anyway, slowly, the excuses started. "Sorry, I can't make plans", etc. Which was valid givn her schedule, but the thing is, after awhile, I know she wasn't working THAT much and she was hanging out w/ her "friends". Which too was valid also at first to me...I didnt wanna take up all of her free time or be selfish to think she had to spend it all with me.
But my gut was telling me she wasn't being 100 with me.......Fortunately I kept an ace in the hole b/c I was watching already her twitter.

unbeknownst to her.
And let's just say one day it became obvious that she was talking to some other dude on the low.
This is the same girl who looked me in the face less than a week earlier and told me lies about how we were together, and how she's very trustworthy in relationships.
Soooo, I say all this to say, if you already know shes seeing other dudes,
just drop her. You can't make her drop the other dudes just b/c you like her. She may not like you the way you think she does.
And if I didn't have that girls twitter, she could've kept jerking me around b/c I had no proof of her cheating....even though I had a feeling in my gut telling me she was being shady.
So go with your gut.
