On Again, Off Again

Well. I don't know. And I'm so freaking tired of even hearing myself say and think those words.

To get up to speed...I heard from guy on Saturday, after not hearing from him since the Sunday previous. That Sunday, he sounded sick as a dog and was not doing well at all. I thought after I talked to him that afternoon that he may well be in the hospital by the next day. I left him a voicemail Thursday, just wondering how you're doing, blah, blah. Anyway, he called Saturday (notice how I'm glossing right over Valentine's Day here) and said that he had gotten my message and was returning the call. He had been pretty out of it on meds and was having surgery Tuesday (which was yesterday). He said he appreciated my calling and would try to keep me posted.

Not exactly a great phone call. It seemed that he was calling only to be polite and if I had not left him a voicemail, he wouldn't have thought about calling. Or that was my impression, anyway.

My question to you, dear readers, is at what point do I officially write him off? I mean, when should he have called by if was interested at all??

As much as I'd like to deny it, I'm thinking he's not. Interested at all, that is. I hate admitting this, but I sent him a cute Valentine's card and nope, not a word about it. Maybe he was immobilized by meds and/or illness. It's possible, I suppose.

As I'm writing this and seeing it staring me in the face in black and white, I think I know the answer (sigh) as much as I'd like to think otherwise.

In fact, I've already had this entire conversation, only in much, much greater detail, with L. and she was of the opinion that the phone call sounded like a cold shower and to cut my losses and move on. If I hear from him, fine. Go from there. But don't be counting on it. She's right. I know she's right.

I can conclude only that our whole thing was one of the following two scenarios: A) He was away from home, bored, and lonely and that was what made me so appealing to him and said appeal vanished when he returned home or B) There was somebody who he'd been seeing in town before he left and when he returned, they picked back up. Or maybe a combination of the two.

If any of the three people who read this know any cute, no they don't even have to be cute, how about simply smart and interesting guys, do send them my way. Only not via this blog. Of course. No guy who is potentially interested in me needs to read all this crap.
