Well, I broke it off with A
...and I'm so glad I did. It ended up being over text because he blew me off for dinner. I just told him I don't think we should see each other anymore and that we just don't want the same things and that I was sorry it didn't work out. He said he understood and that he hoped we could still be friends (we share the same circle of friends so I'm glad it went the way it did).
Ok, so now here's the part that I'm glad about (see above about being blown off). Last time I was in the city visiting/job interviewing, I was there for a whole week. I saw him twice. First time, he couldn't make it to dinner because he was too sick from being out the night before but came to visit later and we had a few drinks. Seems to me if he was that hungover, he probably shouldn't have been drinking. I totally side eyed it but, since we weren't actually in a relationship (he wouldn't "commit" until I moved there) there really wasn't much I could say about it. I mean, obviously I expressed my displeasure with what had happened and he apologized. Besides that, he did it again last night. He hasn't been all that interested in what I've been doing-I mean, I don't need a parade but maybe a "good luck on your interview" or I hope they find out what's causing you pain so you feel better soon would be nice.
I'm so glad that I broke it off. I started to see little things that made me uneasy and really went with my gut. I was with a jerk before, I don't want to be again. He has a really good reputation and I just didn't see it coming, maybe I didn't want to. I treated him the way I wanted to be treated and it just wasn't happening.
Overall, I'm still awesome, all on my own 
Re: Well, I broke it off with A
As I read your post I was sad at first. Then as I read, I was glad because it sounds like you're making the right choice based on many factors. THEN, when I got to this part I was psyched because you know how awesome you are regardless of him.
I'm glad that you are happy with your decision and that things worked out for you.
That's great to hear! Onward and Upward!
Sorry, but glad you feel good about about it, AJ!
As a side note, I love how positive you are. I always open your posts because they make me feel more "yay" haha
I'm also sorry things didn't work out, but this quote made my day. Rock on with your bad self!
Always feels good tossing a frog back into the pond.
You made the right choice. Onwards and upwards!
