TextSexLess
I reached a whole new level of awkward tonight with my TextSexBuddy. Relationships that are both so shallow and so deep at the same time never work out in the end. While Brandon was on vacation I had missed him while I was at work. Nothing makes the day pass like naughty IMs with a person you never met. Tonight, we had started texting again, but it was different. I was perplexed by how to proceed. I knew any real contact would result in a rather large bubble bursting. It didn't seem there was anywhere to go, and having a long term text relationship with someone I would not be able to meet seemed even weirder. Brandon called when he got home and we started to get hot and heavy on the phone. After a while, though, I hit a wall. There was nothing more to say. Nothing else to do. He got quiet too, and then he wouldn't respond at all. I hung up. Before, if his phone really did cut out he would text me to let me know he couldn't call. This time there was no follow-up message. Looks like I finally figured out how to end this very odd relationship: Hang up the phone.

Thank you for the reminder. I got involved with someone like this; I think it was what we both needed at the time, so I just went with it. Fate intervened the couple times we tried to get together, and then something changed. I'm not sure what, but I lost her number and realized that I should just let it be.
It still sucks sometimes, but I learned a lot surprisingly.
TR: Ironically, I got a text the next morning saying he fell asleep while on the phone. Either way, I think it was the final conversation we will be having. Like you, it was clearly time to call it off.
I'm still somewhat hung up on a couple other girls....not for good reasons. I'm glad I caught this, it was a good reminder of what I SHOULD be doing instead.
