he said, she said...



he said: so, i got your email. you're an emotional rollercoaster. where did all of that come from?

she said: wow. really? i tell you ALL of that...all of the things that i am feeling and you say THAT? *sigh*

he said: yeah. because you're mad and now all of this stuff is coming up. stuff that we've already discussed.

she said: yeah...well, shame on me for not addressing these things with you previously. my bad. they still exist.

he said: i mean, your email was really long. it was like a dear john? i don't even understand what you're saying...



she said: it wasn't a dear john...we'd have to have a relationship for it to be a dear john.

he said: you know what i meant. tell me what the issue is?

she said: omg. basically? that keeping my guard up and acting like i don't care is frustrating and exhaustive.

he said: then don't. why don't you let your guard down? it's not that hard...

she said: are you kidding me? you can't possibly think the guard goes down just b/c you say it does...?

he said: yes, it does. just do it. I trust YOU...

she said: you trust me with WHAT?

he said: aggggggggh. you are so emotional. too damn sensitive.



she said: so...let me ask you this...are we dating or hanging out?

he said: hanging out.

she said: ok. thanks. just so you know, you have previously referred to it as dating...<
>...

he said: oh.

she said: yeah...but, it's cool. i get it.

he said: get what? i like you. we have fun. why does it matter what the title is?

she said: the title doesn't matter -- but the behavior needs to match the intent.

he said: why? what changes when you're dating vs. hanging out?



she said: listen. hanging out is done with boys or girls. dating, for me, is done with boys. it's laced with romance.

he said: well, for me, dating includes planning for my future...so, i've never dated. not even with my past gfs.

she said: ok. got it.



he said: why does anything have to change? now that you're so ''clear''? i want to keep seeing you.

she said: yeah, well -- top billing goes to those i'm dating. i don't need to see my friends every day & every weekend.

he said: wow.

she said: yeah, i think this has been a huge miscommunication -- perhaps, i wasn't clear initially and for that? i apologize...cuz, like nene from rh of atl -- i'm good on friends!
