| This blows |
It's 2:07 am and we have already said goodnight; there is literally nothing that I want to talk to him about right now. Dollars to donuts, I'm probably milling around talking to more guys and the last thing I wanna deal with is some needy freak-a-leek who's thinks he's on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and trying to phone a friend. We aren't friends. We're still pretty much strangers. I don't even know his name. I just wrote "Mike(?) from the Barbary" in my phone when we did the number exchange. I'm not even sure if I heard his name right.
So when I saw that he left me a voicemail message, I let out an audible groan. Great. Now I gotta listen to this thing to clear the icon off my screen. This guy is already getting on my nerves and he's only been in my life for 15 minutes! Fuck him and fuck me for even giving this weird guy my stupid number. All he was to me at 2:02 am was a guy possibly named Mike. But, now that he left me this stupid, rambling voicemail message, his name is "contact deleted."

I ALSO hate that. I actually hate it so much, and in fact hate voicemails from everyone so much, that I set up a google voice account, and all my voicemail goes to an email box, and I never have to look at it or think about it at all. I see that I have a missed call, and I decide whether I want to take care of it, and there is NEVER a voicemail message on my phone. Aaaaaaaaand now I sound like a shill for google voice, which I am not, but seriously, that shit changed my phone life. I am a much happier person because of it. And people who don't know that I hate voicemail don't realize that their message will never, ever get heard, so I don't hurt their feelings! Which is important to me.
That's a good idea! The only people who usually leave me voicemails are my parents because they still haven't figured out how to use texting effectively. But, I should've just given this weird guy a google voice number and left it at that. Again, good idea!
lol OUCH... this one seems a little harsh, Anna
poor dude just trying to make new friends! lmfao
I hate it worse when he texts 2 minutes after we part for the night. At least with voicemail you can pretend you just planned on listening to it later. :(
I don't think that he was trying to make new friends. I think he was trying to bother me and get my attention.
Is there such a thing as a *good* voicemail message to leave 5 minutes after getting a number?
I'm sure there is in the appropriate context, but after the bars close is not the optimum time to be leaving girls you just met stupid, uninteresting messages. It makes the guy look too eager!
I don't know... if you really like him, you might be totally stoked that he left you a voicemail right away. If it was a was a good one.
I'm thinking of changing my voicemail message to "hi you've reached Samantha's phone, please don't bother leaving a message!"
my phone has visual voicemail so I never listen to them anyways.
This seems a bit harsh, especially coming from a floozy who gives men at bars her number at 2am enough to have this reoccurring problem.
Giving a person my phone number makes me a floozy? Sorry dude, but you sound like a Puritanical, judgmental asshole.
