So last night I’m reading for school and my phone rings with an unrecognizable number. I answers and the conversation goes like this:
Me: Hello
Him: Can I speak to Tiffany
Me: Yeah, who’s this?
Him: Darvin
Me: Silence (thinking to self, Darvin? Darvin? Darvin?) Oh! What’s up?
Him: You remember me?
Me: Yeah. What’s up?
Him: Nothing, I came across this old ass phone I had and saw your number and wanted to give you a call and see how you’ve been?
Me: I’ve been fine. How about you? What you been up to?
Him: Me? Chillin’. Up to no good. (Now even if I didn’t have a wonderful man in my life, if I haven’t talked to you in a while and you tell me you’ve been up to no good, that does NOT peak my interest.) Me and my homeboy got the high school party scene on lock and we’re about to open a club.
Me: That’s what’s up.

Darvin is the dude from People (females) are Weird that I reference in the update on “Twin.” So in the interest of brevity for this post the convo went like this: I ask him about Twin… he asks if I were home from school yet (I’ve been home for 2 years now, so that goes to show you how long it’s been since we’ve spoke.) I ask about his daughter… He now has a son….

Back to the dialect…

Me: So what made you call?
Him: I told you, I came across the phone wanted to see how you been.
Me: I get that, but it’s been over 2 years since we talked… I’m just a little confused as to what made you call me
Him: It hasn’t been that long
Me: Yes it has, because I’ve been with my boyfriend for almost 2 years and you and I stopped talking before he and I hooked up.
Him: (With a surprised tone)Your boyfriend?
Me: Yeah, my boyfriend…. And the fact that you have a 7 month year old goes to show how long it’s been..
Him: I guess… but it’s about to be hot outside, I ain’t got time for relationships

Again… even if I didn’t have a wonderful man in my life, if you don’t have time for relationships, why call? I’m done with the whole “agreement” thing… we can just kick thing… you do you, I do me thing… Been there done that, Baltimore is too small to continue doing that!!

But I’m like this… if you thought that much of me to call me after two years to “see how I was doing” what makes you think that within that 2 year time span someone wouldn’t have thought that much of me to make me his girl?

Dudes are crazy and I ain’t got time, so I kindly ended that conversation short! I’m glad that GTL and I re-met, and share what we have b/c dudes are crazy and I don’t have time for their mess!!
