cut&dry
we made a deal: we would date for one month and, if it worked out, then we would renew for another. we sealed it verbally and with a firm handshake. i thought that i was definitely onto something and that this was, no doubt, the most responsible thing that i had ever done in the world of 'love'. the one month mark arrived and we happily agreed that another month was in order. verbal contract. handshake.
another 30 days passed and i was under the assumption that we were going to write a new contract that would include a 6 month lease. not the case.
2 months to the day of our initial contract, he sent me the following [in writing]: i won't be needing your services any longer; i do not have a need to extend our contract any further. thank you.
