Went to buy more Fugglers for my son and spotted these and I couldn't stop sniffing them
Oof ok so where do I start? I'm gonna try to add as much context as possible without making this a long ass post. I wanted to add more text screenshots but I'm not allowed no more than 20 so I tried to fit in what I thought could provide enough details.
During the beginning of February this guy had asked for my number while I was with my son and I had told him I couldn't because I wasn't interested in dating at the moment. I had been single for 5 yrs and I felt it was best to prioritize my son and at the same time I had given up on looking for my person.
Let me add that before he asked for my number we'd see each other around town. We'd always stare at each other and there was always this magnetic attraction.
You'd think I would've given this guy my number right away after knowing all that but tbh I was overthinking everything. The what ifs. What if he ends up regretting being with a single mom. Maybe he can do better maybe he's better off being with someone who doesn't have kids?
Well that night after I didn't give him my number I was beating myself up for not doing so. I kept thinking shoot! I really feel drawn to this guy and I could tell he feels the same way. So I posted on AskMen how would a guy feel if a girl went back and asked him for his number after she said no. Lots of men chimed in. Some said there was no way they'd give her a second chance. Others said they would and that they'd be willing to understand if the girl had a good reason why she said no the first time.
I went back to the same spot where he asked for my number. For almost two weeks I would pass by the gym he worked out at. Til one night I spotted him inside and he noticed me. There was a girl asking for donations outside so I made conversation with her hoping he'd come out. Well within a couple of minutes he comes out and says hi to me and I took the opportunity to shoot my shot this time and asked if he still wanted my number. He said yes and that he had been hoping to run into me again to ask for my number because he could tell I was debating about it that night I said no since I was giggling too much and I kept giving him a flirty look. Which he wasn't wrong about at all.
Anyway this was on a Thursday Feb 12. That night after I gave him my number he texted me telling me he wanted to see me Tuesday which would be Feb 17. I didn't want to think much of it or feel entitled to a Valentine's date but there was a part of me that was thinking it would've been nice for him to take me out on a date.
The day of the date came and everything went well. I told him everything how I made a post on reddit asking for advice. I told him the reason why I rejected him the first time. He reassured me that I had nothing to worry about that my son wasn't an issue. That he knew what I came with and that it didn't stop him from asking for my number. He even talked about wanting kids of his own. Now I didn't really like that idea because I always said I'm one and done. But I thought hey maybe if this guy shows me he's consistent and I feel confident enough then maybe one more kid wouldn't hurt.
Even before we went out on a date I noticed his communication was slow. He'd take 6-8 hrs to reply back but I didn't want to sabotage this and thought maybe he really is busy. After the first few days of talking and going on our first date. The texts kept prolonging. He'd take 16 hrs, 24 hrs, more than 24 hrs to text back. That's when I started getting suspicious but I didn't want to assume without getting an explanation.
He told me that he had a really busy schedule because he'd go in to work around 12am and come out at 9am and then after work he'd hit the gym and run errands before starting on his side hustle which he start around 2pm or 3pm sometimes earlier and wouldn't finish until 8pm sometimes because he had 8-10 stores. He has his own business where he distribute convenience stores like liquors and 7-11 with merchandise.
I frequent one of the stores that he distributes merchandise to and I had asked the owner about him since I always stopped by to conversate with him and knew him for a while.
He told me that he knew who he was and that he once came in with a boy around my son's age. He even gave me the correct description of the car he drove. Showed me the business card with his name on it.
I confronted him about it but he denied it. He even convinced me that the store owner was jealous and making stuff up. Because I had previously told him that he'd always flirt with me and would ask for my number and ask if he could take me out for dinner and would tell me how he got excited everytime he'd see my face. But I never paid attention to him because I wasn't interested in an older man in his 50's.
Anyway I didn't press the issue anymore after that. I thought yeah maybe he is making shit up.
Well besides the prolonged replies. He also stood me up on dates...like 2 or 3 xs. We'd make plans to meet up at a certain time and he never showed up never texted me to let me know he wasn't going to make it. Until I'd start to confront him about it and then he'd apologize and said that he got caught up with work and that it was so busy he didn't have time to let me know.
I was already getting fed up with everything because it was the same shit again and again. So I went off on him telling him I couldn't do this anymore and to come clean if he had a girl. Of course he decided to end things because he was tired of me accusing him of things he wasn't doing.
The breakup happened on April 19 but the following days after that we were still texting each other here and there telling each other that we missed each other...I was in denial despite there being so many obvious signs. I made myself believe that maybe I pushed him too much too soon. That maybe that's why he wasn't making time to see me because he was looking at other options but didn't have the balls to tell me how he felt about me now.
I was feeling distressed I was spiraling because now I really lost him...so I told him that it was better if we kept it as friends I even suggested being FWB but he said that it would only make it harder for us.
Around April 29 or 30 he phone calls me and we talk for a while. After hanging up he tells me that he misses me and he missed hearing my voice. I thought omg yes maybe there's a possibility we might be able to workout things again. I still had a lot of feelings for him and couldn't get him off my mind despite everything.
MAY 1 Im passing by the gym when I see him come out with a girl. I immediately noticed her silhouette matched the same of the girl I had seen in his car. I was stunned I didn't know what to say or do. It took me a while to decide whether to approach or not. But I ended up going up to her and asking if she was his gf. I didn't come at her aggressive or anything like he claims I did. She just smirked at me and laughed and said...umm why?? And then proceeded to get into the car. Meanwhile he was telling me..."What do you want? Leave."
I didn't know what to do. I was hurt so I phoned up my friend and told her everything. Since I don't have Facebook or IG. We searched up on her phone for his socials. We didn't find much because they were all private except for his X account. We were able to see some of his replies and in some of them he mentions his son and how his son would win a grown person in a debate. Another comment he talks about how even with a busy schedule he can maybe squeeze some time to cheat on his wife.
That's when we were like ok we have to find out everything about this guy!
We searched him up on Spokeo, White Pages, Tru People search. Trying to find out who he lived with and trying to solve the puzzle.
I had given up on the search. I figured what good does it do if I already know who he is.
MAY 17 My friend messages me saying she saved one of the numbers that appears under one of the person's name who lives in the same house as him that comes up online. And that she kept getting her suggested on Facebook on people you may know and that she had pictures with a guy that looked like him. She sent me the pictures to confirm if it was him and sure enough it was
They had pictures with their two boys. Pictures from 2014 when they had their first boys baby shower.
On her page there were posts about forgiving infedility about how no matter what you do for him nothing you do will make him change.
This wasn't the girl I had seen him coming out of the gym with. This was the girl he had been fooling. The girl he had really been lying to.
Now it's not certain if they're still together because according to my friend her recent pictures are only pictures of herself. We don't know if they're on and off.
I want to reach out and tell her everything but I don't know if I'll only be adding more salt to the wound. I don't know if he'll retaliate out of spite. If he's willing to deny his kids who knows what he can be capable of doing.
All these feelings that I still had for him faded after finding out he's a worse POS than I thought he was.
I was gonna go with my brother but my knee has been hurting and I don't know if there will be any space to sit down or bring a chair.
Anyway I told him he should leave earlier because who knows how crowded it will be and if he'll even get a spot with a good view. But he insists on leaving at 11:30 and the event starts at 12.
Is it already packed with people right now?
It's been more than two weeks since we stopped dating and I can't stop myself from messaging him. He no longer wanted the relationship because he was too busy for a relationship but turns out he had someone already.
I can't bring myself to block him I just can't do it. And we only dated for almost 3 months but I fell for all his future faking. I've never felt or acted this way before for a guy
At one point I'd even joke to him that someone probably put a spell on me because I was always strict about never dating again and hadn't dated in 5 years. I claimed I'd never fall for a guy again and the day I saw him we were instantly drawn to each other. It was magnetic id feel a pull towards him
He'd laugh when I'd tell him that and be like well my sister can read your cards so if you want to know the truth you can go to her.
So I'm guessing he's using the fact that I brought it up to fool with me. But now I'm wondering if he's even serious.
So I recently started going to the park and at first it was only one squirrel who would get really close to me but never ate from my hand. I named her Ruby. I posted her in my previous post.
Now this one I believe is a different squirrel though because Ruby has a darker nose and her nipples are a bit more saggy
There were like 7 to 8 squirrels eating near me but I couldn't get a video cause they kept running away when I'd pull out my phone.
Haha but this lil cutie pie kept coming near me so I can give her walnuts. Haha I think she was trying to play with me because she kept sneaking up from behind me as well and would run when I'd turn my head 😆
My son went to grab one of his Fugglers and was like, "I have the perfect present for you mom. A Fuggler for Mother's Day! ❤️ Lol
There were other squirrels around but they were too skittish. This pretty girl was taking all the peanuts 🥜 😆
Lol I actually like how they shoot their shot by starting the conversation with something related to In-N-Out.
I really wish I'd give someone a chance but
I'm so fucking full tho..Now omw to watch the Michael Jackson movie.
You guys remember that screenshot of me asking the guy I was dating if he wanted to eat In-N-Out with me and he said he couldn't because he was too busy.
Turns out he had someone else all along!
So yeah to hell with anyone who's too busy for In-N-Out!
*Btw before any of you come on here and try to lecture me about how I'm dumb for saying that. I'm only joking about not dating someone who doesn't have time to eat In-N-Out*
Oh and tomorrow I'm going out to get some In-N-Out and then go watch the Michael Jackson movie. Or should I do that after I'm done with the movie?
Or maybe eat one before and after the movie? 🤔
Okay so I had initially tried to post this on ask men with a different title but it got removed. "the paragraph where I start with 3 months ago" had to do with a question I had posted on Ask men at the time....but it still has to do with a post I made on here maybe like a week ago where I mentioned my overthinking made my little fishy slip away....Yeah I know I'm fucking stupid for calling him that. But yeah guys just wanted to update you on what happened and how I finally got an answer. I wasn't overthinking.
[About 3 months ago I made a post on here (which btw I deleted now). Where I asked if "Men were still willing to give a girl a chance after she said no to giving out her number"
I got a lot of advice. Some were telling me to go for it. Others were telling me to leave that man alone and that they personally wouldn't let someone reject them twice. Or that they better get a good explanation why I changed my mind.]
I didn't want to give him my number the first time because I am a single mom and wanted to prioritize my son and I hadn't dated in the last 5 years and I didn't want to go through the whole process of getting to know someone and risk wasting my time and possibly getting hurt.
But I was beating myself up for it cause I didn't mention this earlier but we were frequently crossing paths and everytime we saw each other there was just this pull. Something kept drawing me to him. And I thought it was so strange because it had been years since I've had a crush on someone.
Like a dumbass I kept passing through the same spot at the same time where he first approached me hoping I'd run into him. I did this for almost two weeks. Until I finally ran into him.
My heart was beating fast and I couldn't wait to tell him that I made a mistake and ask him if he was still interested in getting my number.
I asked him and he said, "Of course I still want your number" and I was fucking blushing and was so excited because omg yes I can't wait to spend time with him and get to know him.
This was on a Thursday two days before Valentines day which was Saturday. He texted me that night to set up a date for Tuesday which was the 17th. I thought well he doesn't owe me a Valentine's date cause I'm nothing to him yet but I guess it would've been nice...but I didn't think too much about it. Maybe he's got other priorities.
Well the day of the date arrived and we talked and I gave him the reason why I had rejected him at first and he said if my son would've been an issue he wouldn't have approached me to ask for my number.That he understood because he was also raised by his step dad
Even then I still didn't feel right. I didn't know how this potential new relationship would work out. I have a good relationship with my son's dad and I don't know how I'd feel if another man came in the picture.
But he continued to reassure me and even mentioned that at some point he'd like to have kids on his own. So I thought to myself well let's see how things workout maybe I might be willing to give him one.
There was something about him tho that I just couldn't quite put my finger on and I should've ended it sooner....
He'd sometimes take a full day almost going on two days without replying to me...I would message him and tell him that I wasn't going to put up with this kind of communication because it only made me feel like he wasn't interested enough in me.
He'd text me back telling me to not give up on him and to give him another chance but it's just that he gets really busy with work...He had a job where he worked 6 hrs and then after he would tend to his side business.
I felt stupid because who the hell was I to be questioning a man who's simply trying to make a living?
I had told another friend about him because this guy was making business with him...my friend tells me that he seen him walk in with a kid my son's age....I tell my friend that's not possible because he doesn't have any kids? I questioned him about it and he said there was a kid at the time he was there so maybe my friend assumed it was his kid. But I wasn't too convinced anymore.
Now things were starting to get suspicious. But I didn't want to stress myself out investigating only to find out I was wrong and feel stupid.
A little over a month ago I was walking waiting for the light to turn green when I spotted him driving by...I looked inside and I got to see the silhouette of a girl...I immediately texted him asking "Was that a girl I just seen you with?"
He replied saying it was his niece and I told him I didn't believe him...his response was "Id be happy to introduce you to her"....so I didn't ask anymore questions. I didn't want to press him... he already gave me an answer
Well about TWO WEEKS AGO I went off and told him I couldn't do this anymore. I was tired of constantly being ignored all the time and him rarely making time to see me...I told him if he has someone else to just let me know before I find out myself.
That's when he replied saying he really liked me but that I was making this too difficult for him and that he honestly didn't have time for a relationship at the moment and that I was creating problems that weren't there.
I cried and i apologized for going off like that and told him that all I needed was just a little reassurance that he was still interested in me and if he had ever even liked me?? I suggested maybe we'd probably be better as friends for now but I don't know if I'd be able to because I still had feelings for him.
We would randomly message and tell each other we missed one another.
This Wednesday he called me and we spoke for a bit and he told me he missed me and missed hearing my voice...
AND TODAY! I walk by the spot where I went back to ask for his number and saw him come out of the gym with a girl.
MY heart was beating fast! This girl has the same silhouette as the girl I saw in his car a little over a month ago. She had curly hair...the same as the curly hair strand I once found in his car... But he claimed to be his niece's hair.
I didn't know what to do I stalled a bit....by the time I approached his car they were already sitting in and about to close the doors.
I yelled " Excuse me! Is that your boyfriend? And the girl gave me a smirk and said "Umm why? And laughed at me.
He looked over and said "What? What do you want?
I didn't know what else to say. They closed their doors and he drove off and I walked away in disbelief. My heart was beating so fast i felt like my heart was going to come out.
I immediately phoned my friend and told her everything and went over her house so that she can find out everything about him on his social media.
She had told me in the beginning to search him up but I only use Reddit and YouTube so I didn't want to go through all that and stress myself out.
Well she found one of his accounts. We looked through his comment history...everything. And came up on one comment where he mentions having a 10 yr old kid and another one was on a meme where he said that even with a busy schedule he could still squeeze some time to cheat on his wife.
At that point I wasn't even surprised anymore I just thought to myself how could I have been so fucking stupid when all the signs were there?!
Oh and this scumbag even had the audacity to tell me I should apologize for embarrassing him like that in front of her.
Because he thought we were on good terms since I said it was better to keep it as friends
But I was upset because he claimed to be too busy and that he didn't have time for a relationship and now I see him happily walking out with this girl?!
I think she wants to go home already.
I posted this yesterday at 3 pm but didn't add that info. Just editing so you guys don't get confused
