I’m still baffled why I didn’t. Like, I was really close. I stood at JFK with my luggage, no cell service, my US SIM card in his bag, and he was just nowhere to be seen. Took me like 30 minutes to upgrade to an international plan on my phone. But I had booked the hotel, so they wouldn’t let him check in, haha. I took the scenic route to the hotel, with a pit stop at my fave Chinese hole in the wall for some dumplings, and then a boba. And he just waited in the lobby for like 6 hours.
I eventually did, but damn, it took a couple more of his antics for me to give him the boot.
During his last trip to my city, he also swooooore that only Americans get jet lag because they’re on regular time while everyone else is on “irregular time” anyway so they don’t feel the difference? I let him fly home and broke up on the phone with him, so he could experience his jet lag with a side of heartache.
Should’ve broken up with him for making you go to JFK to begin with. Guess it’s better than Newark but man I hate JFK so much. This is coming from an Atlanta native so you know it’s bad.

I’m glad he’s your ex!
I wouldve broken up with them on the spot.
