Boys! Nothing freaks the shit out of a girl more than when she makes some grand gesture and you don’t call her back for several days.
On Saturday I finally purchased my plane ticket to go see Older Navy in North Carolina next weekend. I don’t know about you but finally making that decision was really exciting for me and I would have thought it would be exciting for Older Navy. So once I made the purchase I emailed him to tell him I was actually coming. His response? “Kool.” Seriously, that’s all I got.
So I called him later to talk about it, voice mail. Left a message. Called him the next day, voice mail, left a charming “call me back or I’m going to think you’re freaking out” message. Nada. No phone call, no email. Where the hell is he?
Well that’s not fair. I know where he is. He’s in the studio with his band. But even so, he could have taken 2 minutes out of his busy bass playing schedule to call me back. Give me that! I mean the weekend after we met he was in the studio with the band as well. He still managed to call me every few hours or so just to check in and say hi. Now I’m making this grand gesture and I get nothing. Not even a “Yay, I’m so excited” or anything.
So he emailed me yesterday, basically saying he was really busy and that he’s really excited that I’m coming. But this does not make me feel better. At this point all I really want is an apology. Or I want him to tell me there’s someone else down there and he’s nervous about our lives crossing paths…something like that. It would have been nice if he told me that before I laid down the 260 to come down there.
My friends think I’m nuts and insecure. I think they are probably right but this IS a big deal. I have a right to freak don’t I?

You're NOT nuts and insecure. I have experience in this area, after having met a guy on the street in DC the day before he moved to San Fran and I moved to Boston.He was all, "I'm coming to visit you in Boston!" and I told him no, too scary, I'll come to San Fran cause I have friends there. Dude totally lost his shit and stopped returning my phone calls. I know you already bought the ticket but expect he'll freak out and pull back, that's what people with penises do.. they just can't help it. Anyway, still go, but give him some space now and hopefully he'll come around once he stops freaking out. And PS I'm SO happy you liked my manifesto!! Written in a moment of strength, but I have no clue how the hell I'll uphold it.
