I’m not sure I’ve ever actually been “ghosted” in the sense that most of Gen Z talks about. Maybe I just consider it “losing interest” because I’ve done that on my end THOUSANDS of times…. sometimes you chat and chat on apps and Text messages, and nothing interesting ever seems to happen, so you just stop talking. Does that equate to “Ghosting”? I’m not really sure…
The last time I wrote, you were all helping me scheme and formulate ways to go about asking out Hot Doctor…. so here’s the update:
I had called to make an appointment for my follow-up when the front desk told me Hot Doctor had switched offices and was no longer working at this particular office. While we were still formulating our plans (thank you to those of you who DMed and Commented, it SUPER Helped me!!) I hadn’t yet decided on how this whole thing should go down…
So when I show up to the office, I suddenly see Hot Doctor’s BMW outside!!!
Now, the one draw back of Hot Doctor is he has a really stupid car… not because its a BMW, but because it has a custom paint job in pastel green, and it literally looks like puke. I had seen him driving this car yearrrrrs ago when leaving an appointment, and it had become the subject of our banter…. that, and I always recognized it had out of state plates.
Also, who misses a puke green BMW ANYWHERE?!
SO WHATDOYAKNOW, puke green BMW is parked at the office — the place where the front desk said he would NOT be, and gave me an appointment with another doctor, who, is NOT hot.
Inside the office, I could hear Hot Doctor’s voice in the hallway — and I was hoping that maybe for a hot split second when the door to my little room got left open, that he would walk by and see me, and I could get the details of this “office move” right from the damn horses mouth.
Alas, I never saw him… just heard him walking back and forth, and talking to other patients.
I quickly texted my sister and told her the ugly ass BMW was here — and now I didn’t know if this fool was actually moving offices, or maybe had instructed the front desk lady to pretend to tell me he was leaving? (that’s… reaching, but you never know). All I can think is: GOOD THING I HADN’T SENT AN EMAIL IN CASE HE HASN’T LEFT THE OFFICE AND MAYBE IS STAYING.
My sister encourages me to leave a note on his puke green BMW. So I sit in the parking lot, and on the back of an envelope write out something that I thought was funny…. but now thinking back on it, maybe leaned too much on “who’s gonna do my botox now lol” instead of “We should go out on a date.”
Like, my bad.
I signed it “your favorite patient”, my name, and my cell number. And yes, I also asked if he was really leaving the office….
I pulled over, and tucked the note under the puke green Beemer’s wiper — the passenger side, because it was the side I could get to most quickly and then hopped back in my car like I had just robbed a bank, and sped off.
I waited throughout the weekend, wondering if this fool would at least text to say “yeah I’m switching offices you stalker,” but the text never came. Part of me wonders if my poor placement on the passenger side caused him to miss the note completely, or maybe it flew off when he got onto the freeway…
I guess we’ll never know?
It’s been a few weeks, and it’s almost time for me to go back in and have another appointment for my endless fight with wrinkles (my 40th birthday is in a few weeks and I’m having a bit of a meltdown about it, so please, try to understand). I’ve already switched doctors, and he may already be gone to another office…. or, I may pull up and see that puke green BMW there AGAIN and be completely mystified by it all.
Part of me wants to email him and be like YO, I KNOW YOU GOT MY NOTE SON, but then I’d reeeeeally be a stalker. So I guess, hard to know if I really DID get ghosted or not, right?
Le Sigh.
In other news, I have some other more risque stories that I wanna write about, but might need to put behind a pay wall for…. reasons. If I did a subscription for say $2-$5, would ya’ll be into reading?! I’ve held back a LOT of stories because they are a lil too hot for the interwebs where anyone can see…. answer the poll below, let me know if you’re down!
I have been waiting for this update and I am just so confused by his dumb car being there! Is it weird for you to go to the derm every week? Cause maybe that should be a thing.
