It Sucks To Be Me :-(

There is this one guy who really grates me...(we'll call him Bob).
Bob is your average middle aged over weight shy guy with a lack of self confidence.
That does not grate me. It's his whining that grates me!
I first started talking to him, when he called my work phone, asking for a date sometime in the weekend.
I apologised, and told him I already had a busy weekend with dates and family stuff. I didn't hear from him again until he had returned home to the South Island - he added me on msn, and told me he was so excited about the prospect of seeing me, he just jumped on a plane and called me when he arrived. At first I was like, awwh thats cute... but THEN... a couple weeks later, I get an email from him saying he is just about to fly out to Wellington to see me, he would like an appointment that day, and he would give me a call when he landed. He had not made me aware of his plans to come see me and he had made no effort to make a date before he paid for the tickets, so by the time I had received his email, I was already fully booked, and had to turn him down again.
When he got back home, he replied to my email (apologising for not being able to see him) saying oh yeah.. sucks to be me, blah blah blah - I was sympathetic, but honestly, he can't expect me to be available at the drop of the hat, right??
I have my trip to Christchurch coming up on the 16th. When I emailed all the people who had enquired, I emailed him too.
His email back to me said... I maxed out my credit cards when I came to see you both times, I can't afford to see you now.
I reply saying something along the lines of, thats too bad, maybe next time..
then I get the email back saying (again) yeah... sucks to be me!!
Man that phrase is so annoying! It's whiney, and pathetic.
Anyway Bob... stop being so pathetic, grow some balls, and use your common sense and let me know atleast 2 days before you fly out, if you're coming down soley to see me! Geeez....
