I'm irritated by an ex and I want everyone to know it

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

I’ve been hearing from an ex who I wish would leave me alone. I don’t know why he’s calling me, we broke up in December and I have no intentions of seeing his face again. Ever. A few months ago he called me on the phone out of the blue to make with a bunch of mindless small talk. Eh? Why the hell was he calling me? By that time at least three months had passed since I’d heard a word from him. What was with the randomness? Why was he calling me up for conversation as though nothing had ever happened? Whatever, I just pretended like I was busy and went on with my day. Called me again. The second time around I carried on something that vaguely resembled a conversation with him. I don’t know why I talked to him, but I did. Part of me wanted to tell him to die slowly, but instead I grinned and bore it shot the shit with him. Then nothing from him again for a few months. Now I am officially irritated. Why in the heck is this man calling me? What exactly does he want? So I asked, to which he responded with some lame story. He was out of the country but had been meaning to get in contact with me and forgot my phone number and whatever else. I forgot exactly how his story went, but I do remember it was lame and he was lying. He’s always been a bad liar and his story did nothing but piss me off.

One, that’s stupid. Even if he were out of the country and didn’t have a way of getting in contact with me, what does that have to do with the price of gas in Texas? That still doesn’t answer why he’s talking to me now months after we broke up. I kept grilling him. I needed to know what in God’s hell he wanted. Finally he comes out with, “I miss you.” I laughed in the idiot’s face. “Ha!” I exclaimed, “You miss my vagina.” He didn’t take too well to this and said I was overly “negative.” Oh boy, not that conversation again. I could have gone on about how he acted like he was 12 years old, was threatened by every other human being on the planet, obscenely insecure, insanely posessive and a general ass monkey, but I did not. We’ve HAD that conversation many times BEFORE we broke up. WHY in the HELL do we need to go over it AGAIN? I got it the first 10,000 times. I’m pushy, self-centered and negative and he’s an insecure dipshit who’s got a perpetual chip on his shoulder and something to prove. Super, now leave me alone. I am officially done playing nice with him. I dealt with his first coupla random phone calls, but now I am rather irritated. I could have gone off on the jerk and said every single nasty thing I was thinking, but like I said, we’d been over it many times before. Instead, I just told him that if he would be so kind as to leave me the hell alone and never, ever, EVER talk to me again, I’d be ever so grateful. I hung up the phone, and that was that.

Hope I never hear from him again. He managed to get my feathers all ruffled. Hmph.

Would I be right in thinking these calls always come late at night?

so i’m guessing you aren’t keen to get back together again? :wink:

sounds like he’s hit the magical point where he’s managed to forget all the bad times and only remembers the good.

Do you have caller ID? If so, don’t answer his calls.

I experienced that sort of thing with a fairly psycho ex, for almost a year. I would get emails and at first phone calls from him. Finally, six months ago, I did some research on stalking laws in my state and learned I needed to tell him I felt threatened by the continued contact in order to get a restraining order against him.

So I told him that, and thankfully have not heard from him since.

If you really don’t want to hear from him, don’t take his calls.

Heh, Rapunzel, no. All of his calls have been during the day.

Right, my vagina. I seriously think his thought process is: FACK! I’m still single. Let me phone the last thing I dated with a vagina and see if she’s forgotten how much of a loser I am. Even if he really does miss me, oh well. I don’t want to deal with him anymore. Been there, came back, had a soda, don’t wanna go there again.

And no, I don’t have caller ID. He’s not a psycho, he was just trying to make his way back into my life again. To hell with that.

Good for you, MeanOldLady! I love straightforward women. My mother is like that and I strive to be too.

MeanOldLady, I feel for ya. My ex dumped me…yes, he dumped me…fifteen years ago and he still calls every few months. I got call ID four or five years ago and have not once picked up one of those calls since, yet still he calls.

Good Christ, lorinada. That guy, as my dad would say, has more problems than a dollar watch. Gazelle, being straight forward ain’t so tough, especially when it’s toward a person who you don’t give a rat’s patootie about. Try it sometime.

“More problems than a dollar watch.” ?!?

Bwaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

After the Pit Thread That Would Not Die™ I needed a good laugh.

Thanks, Mean Old Lady.

PS: Dump the loser and getcherself a real man.

I dumped him, which is why I’m so annoyed that he’s still sassing me. I’ll tell my dad you laughed at his line. He’ll be pleased to know someone finds him humorous. :wink:

Lest we all think this is a guy thing…my ex-wife was calling me from England every week late last year to invite me to visit her and her new husband while they were on their honeymoon in the States. When I stopped taking her calls, she started calling my parents, in the guise of seeing if there was “something wrong with me”! The only way I was able to get her to stop was to finally threaten to talk to her new husband to tell him what was going on.

Good thing to see you still have a sense of humor about it, MeanOldLady!
