So I just spoke to X (see previous post labelled... well... X).
I called him 'cause I wanted to know that he was still around. We spoke, but of late, I always feel that he is distant when we speak.
I asked how he was, etc but I was getting one worded answers. Not much for conversing. So because I had nothing to bounce off of, I started talking about myself. Then later on in the conversation, he threw it back in my face:
X: Do you have a niece?
Me: Yea.
X: Is she is hospital?
Me: No.
Then he starts to say he's got a lot on his plate but I was just talking about me.
Hold on. Am I a mind reader? And trust me, I was fucking trying to ask how things were with you for fucksake! Like, it was the most hardest conversation ever because you were not giving me anything to work with!! How am I meant to know?!
Then he got defensive when I explained that to him (in constructive terms may I add). He made me out to be really selfish and I pulled him up on it and he said, "But did I call you selfish?" Er no, but it is not our words but our actions that define us.
Seriously, get a grip man.
Trust me, when someone is reaching out to you, fucking take it.
