Castilo returned my call

My former man-toy/F-buddy. The best sex since Tim. The man who made me feel like the sexiest creature alive... and ended that bliss in July because he found someone he might actually love (I'm happy for him; bummed for me).

I called him today. Mostly because I've been wondering how he'd react if I tried to be friends (the sex was great but what I really miss is feeling comfortable and safe) - but also because I still have the extra pair of tix to She Wants Revenge this Sunday - and last night I remembered that he really likes them too.

Not knowing his situation, I blocked my number and, around 6pm, left a message...

"Hi, it's me. Long time no talk. I hope you're well. I'm calling because I have 2 spare tix to SWR and thought you might like them - for free - and have somebody to take to the show. I'll be there - but 10 rows away - so there's no worries about running into me if you don't want to. I work late so I can leave the tix on my doorstep for you to pick up. Call me back if you get a chance. My phone is crap and I can't get calls so just leave a message. There's no 'strangeness' on my side so please don't worry about that. I hope to talk to you soon."

With no return message by 11:30, I figured he wasn't cool with hearing from me. Bummed me out... but I accept his choice.

And at that exact momemt, my phone rang (the POS phone that usually doesn't let calls through). It was him. I resisted the temptation to pick up. I waited for a voicemail alert.

And I waited.

And waited.

Knowing the phone can't hold a connection long enough for alerts to arrive in a timely fashion, I finally called my voicemail. Nothing. Okay. Odd. But okay, whatev.

20 min later - my phone rang again. Castilo again. No message again.

And 20 min later, a third time.

What am I supposed to make of that? I specifically said I wouldn't answer. My voicemail greeting talks about the POS service and that I can usually only get voicemails. He's a smart guy - not some retard who doesn't pay attention. I've never known him to be manipulative. Why didn't he leave a message?

Did his woman get the message and call to bitch me out?

Did he get the message and call to bitch me out?

Did he get the message and, now single, wanted to arrange a Thurs night booty call?

And, most importantly, do I ignore it? Do I call him back? Do I unblock my phone ID?

I'd really like for him to have the tix if he wants them.

What do I do?
