June 2025 – Job Offer
25 June 2025 – There were plans for him to come over today but because I saw him yesterday I assume I won’t see him but that hasn’t stopped me from making him a cookie pie again & planned to make us burgers for lunch. But of course, he waits till I ask if he is coming before he says that he was asked to work later yesterday & he said no because he was seeing me, but they asked again today so he’s going to stay at work. That’s fine, but I wish he would just fucking tell me his plans rather than waiting till I ask & so then I feel like a wanker & end up eating a whole cookie pie again!
He tells me about a website that has contacted him for advertising, I tell him to get them to send him a PR package & he can do an unboxing video & take pictures with the merchandise, those videos are really big on TikTok, especially if he starts going down the reels road, which he said he was going to do, but hasn’t really.
He calls me at lunch & I find out that the job I had an interview for are doing referee checks on me, which is a positive. He asks if I will take it & I say that it’ll change things for us & I am also scared. “You haven’t been scared in thr past. We will still make things work.” Yeah I know but I took risks before & was fired three times, twice in a 12 month period which destroyed any confidence I thought I had. He says that will make things work? Things are already strained & I work 20 mins from home… This job is at least an hour away from me – an extra 30 mins from him at least, no doubt he won’t ever come to see me at work ever again & if he did I would hear all about how much effort it is. He seems a bit pissed or something because he says goodbye, I ask if he is annoyed about it, “No not annoying att all! Proud of you. We will make it work.” That’s twice, is he trying to convince me, or himself?
26 June 2025 – OMG so he actually tells me that his wife is home sick (her other favourite day to call in sick, a Thursday – because she has Friday’s off) & he might disappear for periods of time today… FUCK, he’s actually giving me a heads up to what his availability is… Jeez! Wonders will never cease! He does say that he will call when he goes to get his click & collect…
He’s out getting a hair cut & going to his favourite restaurant near my house, he calls as he is doing his errands. I don’t know why I let it bother me, but I think because I get such limited time with him that him going through checkouts while talking to me just bugs me today. I think because he doesn’t tell me, I am mid conversation when he is talking to them… Is he even listening to me? What’s the point of these calls if he is distracted? I don’t expect his undivided attention, I have never had that in any scenario ever, even when we have sex, I don’t doubt he is only thinking of me. He gets home & says that he’ll chat later. But he doesn’t… What a surprise.
27 June 2025 – He sends me a picture that is literally the sweetest thing anyone has ever sent me for something so industrial. Let me explain, he is at work, he has taken a picture of a pallet (hahaha yes a pallet!) of cheezels, but the caption is the sweetest part ‘Everything reminds me of her.’ Awwww fuck!
I have engaged in a weight loss study, where you can get the weight loss drugs, not released yet, for free, but you have to go through a million tests, the problem is that they are so fucking slow that it’s lunchtime before I even leave. So I almost miss calling him because I have just gotten to work. But we talk on the phone for our usual lunchtime call.
After he says that he forgot to tell me that Wendy’s ice cream have contacted him too for a collab too, which I say is amazing. I tell him to get them to send a merch pack as well, but he says they can’t send ice cream. Well no but surely they have fucking t shirts or other merch?!
I walk over to the shop & say that he can call me on his way home, which he does. We say good bye on the phone for the afternoon. But when I get back to the office, I get a phone call from the recruiter, that I got the job! She asks what I would want for remuneration & says that I will have a letter of offer Monday. I send him a snap, but of course, he doesn’t come online tonight. “I wish you were online… 😔 You’re the only one I want to tell… I’m sad you don’t know. 😔” It’s when I am grossly aware of our situation & how little he gives me.
28 June 2025 – He says congratulations & he fell asleep at 10:00pm last night… Er, 10:00pm? & you couldn’t come back online? He was coming back online at 8:30pm – 9:00pm after a nap, making himself wake up to come back online to chat to me, now he’s feeling asleep at the time he used to fall asleep while chatting to me only 30 minutes before what I call pumpkin o’clock & he couldn’t chat!? His wife was sick the day before so assuming she was in bed early?! Fuck this guy is just a cockhead! But you know who is a bigger cock head? ME! for being in this, for allowing this, how much longer can I listen to this bullshit?
The recruiter called me a unicorn, so I say that I may have room for negotiation for more money, he says, “You wish you were a unicorn with me and another bloke.” But I say that I don’t want that, he knows that too, he says that I would love it, “Nah, you knew it was my #2 fantasy but you did it with someone else then rubbed in my face, over & over.” He says he didn’t do it on purpose, what do my fantasy or rub it in my face?! Cos both were on fucking purpose! A threesome isn’t an accident & texting me all about it is certainly not an accident… He doesn’t ask me what my #1 fantasy is…
He asks if I am bringing him food today but yesterday he said ‘I guess I have to see you’ but he also hadn’t really planned even though I told him I moved my clients so I could see him, but I assumed that we were getting lunch he says that he doesn’t want to spend any money, oh ok, so I’ll just spend the money making lunches when he knows I don’t fucking cook or eat that much. My food bill has doubled since I started making his lunches. Not that it’s about money for me, obviously, but he seems to remind me all the time how much everything costs.
I pick him up & we go to the 4WD shop for me to buy a car fridge. I absolutely love shopping & doing mundane errands with him. He doesn’t get it, he won’t ever get it, he’s had someone to do errands with for almost as long as I have been single so I can see that doing errands on his own would be a novelty, but for me doing them with him, is the best. Afterwards we head back close to his work & we look for some geocaches. I genuinely don’t know how to have a sex less date, so I suck his dick a little when we can’t find the last one. Then I drop him back at his car. I can’t remember why but after we have hung out for a couple of hours he calls me.
Later that night I am out with my nieces & family for the Beauty & the Beast stage show. I look good & feel good that I send him a couple of pictures. It’s only 5:30pm & he hasn’t said goodbye, I am a wine down so I am feeling better. At 6:00pm he says, “Have fun. Looking cute!” I now have another wine in hand, I know he won’t chat to me because I am out… But he can fucking say goodbye, “I fucking love you Phoenix. & you are my best friend, boyfriend, lover, confidant & just all rounder. I want to tell you things first, I want you to tell me things first (even though it’s not possible) it’s not about missing you, it’s about wanting you..” I can’t remember if he reads it or not, I don’t think so, because either way there is no reply still at 10:30pm when I am now four or five wines down, that I say “Yeah ignore that. Whatever. I don’t give a shit anymore.”
29 June 2025 – I feel like a fool. It’s my own fault, I can’t blame him I mean I keep putting myself out there thinking he is going to care & he just doesn’t. It is 100% on me. it’s not his fault I let my expectations get so high & he just can’t meet them… At 7:10am he messages after being up for at least two hours, “Omg. Don’t be like that. I did fall asleep early again. I’m really struggling staying up past 10. I love the fact you want me …” I don’t reply, so an hour later, he writes “I’m sorry I’m an old man that struggles to say up.” 10:00pm! His pumpkin o’clock was 10:30pm, so what happened to messaging around 8:30pm – 9:00pm like he was before?! A half an hour later, I say, “I’ll let you get your sleep then.” & I put my phone down. I am so sick of being told I am worth his time by his words but by his actions, it is clear that I am not worth his time at all.
He sends four messages over the next 40 minutes, just single short messages “Don’t be like that. IBD4U. You suck. Talk to me cranky pants” I ask what he wants me to say & he says he doesn’t know but not to get angry at him being an old man. But I’m not angry because he falls asleep – yeah you know at 10:00pm without saying goodnight – but he says, “My intention is to stay away and chat to you … I thought I would last night” I have heard this before… ‘I was planning on talking to you, but instead I wrote a pizza blog till midnight & then fucked my wife…’ He’s staying up till 10:00pm & can’t chat, so yeah I’m annoyed… “Yeah, you stay away cos you knew I was out & won’t talk to me. You don’t even say good night anymore, I am just not even a fucking thought in your head before you ‘fall’ so suddenly asleep. I call bullshit.” He wasn’t planning on chatting because he knew I was out. He says that ‘away was supposed to be awake’ & that I am in his head. But if I was in his head & he understands how it upsets me that he doesn’t even say goodbye, then he would come back & say goodbye. I am not in his head at all, he doesn’t care if he upsets me. He’s said some bullshit before about not having empathy & stuff, but it’s not about empathy. Only a month or two ago he was saying how much he cared for me & missed me, missed talking to me & missed seeing me. Literally talking to me so much that I knew in my heart that he couldn’t sustain that level, but I got addicted… Now he is just acting like Marvel again – just messaging when it’s time for sex. He tells me my brain is weird but I say, “My brain reads what you wrote. My brain does not believe you cannot stay awake long enough to type ‘Night’” he says he wanted to stay up to chat to me, “I didn’t realise I would have a boyfriend & still have to talk to myself.” I think I prefer being single. “You don’t talk to yourself. I love the fact you want to tell me everything. I don’t ignore for weeks like I use too!” You know it was easier when I knew what the deal was, I knew what I was getting, he would only come online when it was around the time to fuck, now I get Phoenix spouting his love for me but will only give me his time when he feels like it. He says that he had to deal with some bullshit on his page with some D list celebrity & then he fell asleep… I didn’t realise that while dealing with social media, that he couldn’t type out n.i.g.h.t. You’re right Phoenix, you fall asleep before you can type such a epic message out to the person you love & don’t get to see that often.

It’s around midday so I say “Well, I’ll leave you to deal with you thing & get some sleep.” He tells me not to be like that & talks all about this celebrity issue he’s had, I say it’s probably not even her & he says that it is. Sure whatever you think… He calls me & we talk, we same the same shit over & over, when we get off the phone he says “Miss me Yett” I tell him to fuck off. At 3:00pm he says, “I ❤️ you.” But the heart reminds me that it’s what I used to do because I was too scared to say the word love because I didn’t want to let my guard down & because I still didn’t know what I was really feeling… It tells me he doesn’t love me, he just saying shit now to keep me from destroying his life. He says he’s going to head offline, at 5:30pm, but I don’t read it so ten minutes later he says goodnight. I write back at 7:30pm “Goodbye Phoenix.”
