Cutting the Life Raft

Remember Daddy Warbucks? The #2 Bachelor? Well, he's been texting me and emailing me sporadically over the last few months. At first I was friendly back (just in case things didn't work out with my current boyfriend). But then I realized by responding I was being a tease to Warbucks (although I didn't flirt per se- just being very friendly), and being unfair to my BF.

I think when you're in a relationship, you have to be in it 100%. So I stopped returning Warbucks' last few text messages. Which prompted the below email from him. It's kind of cryptic, just like him. I'm not sure if it's himself he's referring to, or if he just has a friend he thinks would be more appropriate for me. I think because he texted me Happy Valentine's Day on the day, it's probably himself he's referring to and he's just teasing me. Well, whatever the case, it's over. I told him that I wasn't being fair to my boyfriend and that we should cut off all communication. I never heard back. Maybe I went too far, but I find him kind of annoying now anyway, so whatever. No regrets here.

His email:

"I went to an Oscar party tonight, and Tom Cruise was there!

I thought of you of course.

I hope you're doing well. If you ever become single again, let me know...I know someone I could fix you up with."

  3. Smart move! Those two carrots may have been tempting in 1994 - back when Tom Cruise was actually considered attractive -but it takes a lot more than that in 2010!

  4. Avitable: Ha ha, maybe I should be offended?!

    Anonymous: Rather Tom than him! ; )

    Z: Thanks, Z!

    Kara: Ha ha. Well, I don't know... while he's not the Maverick of my youthful dreams, I wouldn't kick him out of bed for eating crackers! I saw him at a party (I was serving hors d'oeuvres) and he looked pretty good. But all the same, yeah, don't think I could handle the crazy!
