Don't Call Him

Don't call him.

It wont solve anything to reach out because the nights are getting

longer and colder.

Take a hot shower, drink a cup of tea

and go to bed early for a change. 

I know the temptation 

can feel stronger than your need

to cut your hair when life becomes stale-

but you will only regret it

like the two years it took 

for all of it to grow back again.

Don't give in.

He needs to know that you 

will 

not

settle-

for a man who wont introduce you

to his friends or see you on the weekends

or tell you he loves you.

And don't answer him either.

This might even be harder

than not calling him because maybe

him reaching out first is a sign

that he is changing

maybe he will buy you flowers

or candy

or tell you to get dressed up

and take you to a fancy restaurant-

but that is just your weakness speaking

you know that he only ever calls 

so you will come over to watch Friends reruns 

and have sex. 

And he certainly isn't calling to tell you

that after a year he has realized

he loves you and doesn't want to lose you.

So don't pick up.

Let your voicemail tell him how

you wish him well 

but he can go f**k himself if he thinks he can dance around you 

forever.

So for God's sake-

have some self worth and 

don't call him.
