Walk On By

26 August 2013 / / 4 comments

Andrew sent me a text message on Friday night while I was at dinner with friends.

It was a simple seemingly innocuous text asking what I was doing. But I quickly discovered why Andrew contacted me. He felt guilty and needed to confess.

He had set up a sip and go with a gal at a bar/ restaurant for that night. But after he saw her sitting there waiting, he sent her a text saying “no.”

Andrew bailed and walked on by.

Who Checks On You?

5 August 2013 / / Comments Off on Who Checks On You?

Demi Lovato is young enough to be my daughter. But she’s old enough to remind me what it means to have friends.

The 20-year-old is a singer and actor best known for the Disney Channel show Sonny With A Chance.

Yes, I have watched it and yes I have laughed. I also like the theme song and the way Lovato screams at the end of the intro and elbows the show’s logo.

Lovato recently said she thought she had loads of friends but when she checked her cell phone during a time of woe, there were few “missed calls” and few text messages.

She learned who actually cared about her after she spent some time in rehab.

Seeking Closure

12 June 2013 / / One comment

Closure. It’s something many of us seek after a relationship has ended. But not all of us find it.

Until a few days ago, I thought I was one of the lucky few who has slowly but surely tied up the loose ends of my past and moved forward. Again, that was up until a few days ago. That’s when my college boyfriend starting following me on Twitter.

Sounds harmless because we broke up five years ago. But the move is significant when you know his now-fiancee’ banned him from contact with me about two years ago and we ended our rocky five-year college relationship on not-so-great terms.

No Texting? No Trust

4 March 2013 / / One comment

I grabbed this graphic from the Facebook page of a friend, Melany. I agree with it wholeheartedly. If you always see someone checking their text messages or sending messages but you aren’t the recipient of them, something is UP! The same goes for email.

My Text Message Dependency

3 December 2012 / / One comment

One summer I worked the overnight shift. This meant I went into work at 10 p.m. and left around 8 a.m. Not only is it a taxing shift for the body and mind, it’s very isolating for a chatty social butterfly like me.

I became even more addicted to my cell phone.

I craved text messages and signs of life outside the mid-day walls of my apartment. I was very aware of my increased neediness and I told my friend Kim I was going into text message hiding for two days. I wasn’t going to send or receive, except in an emergency.

What did she do?
