What are some "guy secrets" girls don't know about?

I was dating an alcoholic before my current girlfriend-wife. She would disappear for a day or two and not respond. Then she'd be back. It was such a friendly relationship. I'm not sure we had chemistry and things never happened physically. She was so uptight when she was sober. Anyway I text her one day to go out in a few days. No response. I waited. Nothing. So I just never texted again. 9 months later still nothing from her.

My girlfriend just doesn't get why I didn't try harder or resolve things with her... That thing wasn't going anywhere. Dear. Are you telling me to go and pursue someone else?? No. Then let it go. It doesn't matter to me or that girl.
