Do Men Have A Radar?

Beep. Beep. Beep.

I have always felt like they do.

I can go days and sometimes weeks without hearing from a man that I have dated or hope to date.

But all of a sudden, I’m happy.  I’m spending a healthy amount of time with E and things are genuinely good with us.   Work is going and my girlfriends are all single, so we are spending a lot of time drinking and singing karaoke together.

*Knock on wood*

I have noticed over the last week or two, that ex-men seem to be coming out the woodwork.  It’s like they have a radar that is beeping to them that I am happy.

Beep.  Andi is Happy.  Beep.  Let’s fuck this up for her.  Beep.

The Accidental Relationship.

He is texting me all the time.  I mean ALL the damn time.  Calling me babe and sweetie and sending me penis pictures.  Oh they are nice, don’t get me wrong, but really?  He ignored me for months, had no desire to see me before he moved and now he wants me.  He wishes I was in Washington and talks about all the things he would do to me, if I were there.

The 29 Year Old.

Has been texting me almost every day, for two weeks.  Sometimes I respond and sometimes I don’t.  Depends on my mood and my company.  He is in Hawaii right now and wants me to go with him, when he goes back in 3-4 weeks.  Who can afford a quick trip to Hawaii?  His work is paying for him to be there.  My work, however, will not pay for me to go.

He keeps telling me how sorry he is.  And I believe that he is sorry.  He’s sorry he chose that young, little idiot girl over me.  He’s sorry that I stalked his Facebook and found out about said little girl.  He’s sorry that he got caught.

I am wavering back and forth between wanting to see him, to try to get an explanation and not ever seeing him again, because I probably can’t behave.  I am also a firm believer that people mess up and depending on the circumstances, sometimes deserve a second chance.  We’ll see.  I’m still back and forth.

The High School Ex #1

This is the guy that took my virginity. Don’t get me wrong, I gave it to him, but after I did, he was a typical 16 year old boy and quite an ass about it.  I broke up with him 3 days later.

The last time I saw him, I was about 6 months pregnant with my daughter.  She is now almost 22.

He found me on Facebook a few years ago.  I will hear from him, every day for a few weeks and then he drops of the planet for a few months.  Well now that Andi is happy with E, guess who has popped back up.

The High School Ex #2

Dated him the summer between my Freshman and Sophomore years.  He may have been my first “puppy” love.  I adored him.  He broke my damn heart.

Well guess what?  Now he has popped up.  Thinks it is time we had sex, since we never did in High School.  Yes, I’m sure your wife would agree with that.

Men are such pigs.

…

They just come out of the blue.  Randomly.  It’s weird.

I asked E if men had that radar.  He said “Maybe.  But I think women have it too”.

Apparently people are contacting him as well.  But I didn’t ask.  I don’t want to know.

Things are going well with E.  I will write about it, in a later post.  As not to jinx it.

I’m happier than I have been, in a really long time.
