It's been over two weeks since I had my random night with Mr. Crusty Hippie, and since then, even though I've messaged him, I haven't heard anything from him. Now, I really don't usually consider this a big deal when it happens, because it's most often a mutual agreement that you don't engage in any further contact after spending a random night with someone. But if the other person just doesn't reply there's a crucial difference, it's quite rude!
These days I'm walking around campus just knowing that he's going to suddenly appear out of nowhere. Sounds like a familiar scenario? For the past couple of months I've been avoiding this research student I dated a while back because I hadn't replied to his messages after a random night out. So, my campus dynamic is as such; I'm avoiding a man who's messages I never replied to, and I'm also avoiding a man who never replied to mine.
I think I finally need to make peace with the universe, this dating-curse can't go on much longer. Next time I see the Research Student, I will actually talk to him and make up a story or something which would justify me not replying to his messages (that I got mugged, and lost my phone perhaps?). The crusty hippie wasn't even a big deal to me, but I think he was the universe's way of telling me - through the divine wisdom of a hippie with dreads - that perhaps I
need to be a bit more mature and sensitive in the way I deal with my relationships.

Yup, been there! You'll actually feel loads better if you say to the guy you never replied to "sorry I never got back to you, it was really rude of me & I apologise... so how've you been?") and say to the guy who never replied to you "Hi, It's ok you never got back to me, I initially thought it was something to do with me, then realised that you're just a rude person")
Or maybe wear a Groucho Marx disguise kit around campus instead!
I think I may have to do that. For some reason I haven't seen him in ages, once I decided that I wanted to actually make some sort of retribution. This karma business is a lot of effort!
