The Reverse

I am a HUGE sucker for the reverse. As you all know, I have had island security escort the boxer to the dock. As you also know, I suck at the clean break, and therefore there was probably going to be a reversal of my decision. But, this did not occur.

Instead, the boxer pulled the reverse on me. You know this move. First, you are sooooooo bitter and angry and ticked and such. Then, you express that bitterness in one way shape or form. So then, the person who is the object of your anger does not respond properly with remorse and or apologies. And then, this is the killer move. Then they, as if by magic, are angry at and or ignoring you! Sometimes you don't even know why. So now, you're all kinds of distressed and wanting to know what you did. And boom! Thus shifted the power in the relationship. You have totally lost the game of chicken you were previously winning.

As always, I totally fell for this move. And the boxer is currently winning the game of chicken by a full touchdown. I am dying to know the meaning of his last text message. And he blew off my last phone call; and so I still don't have an explanation. Arrrgh! I hate the reverse. Someday I'm going to find the anecdote for it... :). Until then, I have no clue what I'm gonna do. Do I call again? Do I text again? Do I cut my losses and wave goodbye to the boat?
