The Past Creeps In

Monday evening, I had a surprise visit from an old friend I had previously discussed here. I've ignored his calls for the last few months, but here he was, at my doorstep. He stayed for 2 1/2 hours. He had questions and propositions. He said things I wanted to hear, like I know I owe you $645.00 but I want to pay you a minimum of $800.00 and if things go well, maybe $2,000.00. Of course, I have heard similar crap before. It is always sometime in the future, never cash in the hand. He still wants me to visit Costa Rica with him next summer. He still wants to hang out and do things. He even wants to help me paint the inside of my trailer, replace the flooring and buy me a new sofa. I smile and nod. Heard it all before buddy boy. All talk, no action. I made it clear to him, that all sounds great, but I'll believe it when I see it. You can come to me if you want company, I'm not spending my gas to come to you. You want to hang out and do stuff, you pay for it, I can't afford it. You want to chat on the phone, you supply the minutes. Blah, blah, blah. Of course the real high light of the evening was him constantly spritzing the place with Fabreeze. And asking if I thought his 5.5 inch dick was too short. He's a straight guy! Why should I care what size his dick is? I'm not holding my breathe for any of it. Not calling him. I can be a cold heartless bitch when I've been manipulated and used. He can deal with.

You have the right attitude.

Manipulators like him can drain you in more ways than one. Stand your ground. Firm boundaries and all that psychobabble stuff.

Dave, I just read your other post about this guy. Listen to Russ: he is a pathological manipulator. He will never change. He has come back simply to sponge off you again for everything he can get. He is not your friend.

You are like me, good hearted and a sucker for a sob story. Probly we will have a lot of jewels in our crown one day for that.

But now is when you need to kick it into full Cold Hearted Bitch gear. And stay there as far as this guy is concerned.

Trust me on this one, buddy. I can see the reality plain and clear from all the way out here in TX, even if you can't.

Dave, keep with the program. I think you've got his number. Don't give in.
