Twice in One Day?

Yep .. it looks like I am back for the second time today.. My boreditis is at bay for a while.. Leon stopped by for a visit.. that was fun.. we talked for a bit.. then it was Kyle time.. while Leon was here Russ called.. we talked for a bit.. fussed at each other for a bit.. and then made sure each other was well and said our goodbyes.. While I was talking to him he gave me permission to blog about the events that took place prior to his departure.

Russ was seeing a lady here.. things seemed to be going well.. they talked on the phone.. they went out a few times.. they seemed to enjoy each other's conversation and there was discussion prior to him moving about continuing the relationship.. both parties seemed to think that although there would be a distance they could continue to see each other and see if the relationship could develop.. A few weeks after he left and after several phone calls between them Russ came to town for a visit.. he was under the impression he would be spending time with said lady.. well apparently she had more pressing issues and couldn't get together with him.. ok fine.. Russ handled it well and with the utmost gentlemanly behavior.. a few more weeks go by and he makes plans to come to town again .. and again they were to get together while he was in town.. Friday night she had plans.. this was known to Russ and he was cool with it , her plans had to do with her child.. Russ understands that a woman's child comes first.. then Saturday they were supposed to meet up and do something.. again.. she was a no show.. no call.. no nuttin.. Russ was understandably upset by this.. he stayed the night here and went home in the morning.. He hasn't heard from this lady since.. I have tried to call her on other matters and have yet to have my calls returned.. I don't know if this is a personal thing or if it is because of my friendship with Russ..

Now.. My take on this.. I really feel that if she couldn't handle a long distance relationship then she should have been woman enough to tell him to his face.. he gave her every opportunity to get out of the relationship gracefully with no hard feelings between them.. he told her in a beautiful letter that he would understand if it were too much to ask to have a relationship with 182 miles separating them.. so.. what gives.. why can't she just tell him that she can't deal with it.. or that she doesn't want to see him again.. or go to hell or something. ya know.. I think as adults we have the obligation to explain our actions to another person if our actions can cause hurt to someone else.. just my opinion.. anyway.. in this case.. Her Loss.. Russ you are still one of the 2 sweetest men I know.. and you are a hottie as we all know.. so Ladies.. Russ is on the market.. better scoop him up while it lasts..

Y'all have fun..
