Douchebag of the Week

This week's honor is bestowed upon a young man who earned the title a few months ago. But I didnt have a blog then and therefore was not awarding D-bag of the Week honors, therefore, he gets recognized now.

Pie was dating this guy...we'll call him Sparky. And he's a total dude. Former baseball coach, owns a freelance landscape business, wears polo shirts with sweatpants and ballcaps 24/7. You get the picture.

Their first couple of dates were really great; they had a good time, went on interesting outings, seemed to be getting along really well. I met him; he seemed nice.

Then he starts saying things like "I think the climate here is why my freelance landscape business hasnt taken off. Maybe I should move to Arizona" and "I miss coaching, maybe I should get back into that. I should call my buddy who's the coach in New Jersey" and "I dont know if we can get serious about dating since I'm about to move."

All of which Pie really took in stride. She was disappointed that his life wasnt as put together as she had hoped/her life is/one would expect of a 30-something guy but she was ok with it.

Until the day he said "I think about my ex-girlfriend every day. I wonder what she's up to right now."

DON'T SAY THAT! Just don't.

If he thinks about his former gf everyday, he doesnt need to be dating Pie.
And if he's going to stop dating Pie, he needs to tell her that. He does not need to tell someone HE CONTINUES TO DATE that he thinks about another woman everyday.

Therefore, douchebag.
