John Mayer Wants a Certain Ex to Leave Him Alone, Thanks

John Mayer may have quit his official blog in January, but that doesn't mean he's done talking. Just can't stay away. He touched down in LA last night and made his way right to Hyde, where his generosity continued and he gave some jock itch powder and Lotrimin (whatever?) to the paparazzi — seems like he was in a good mood after being in a bit of a funk in NYC earlier in the week. While there, he penned this cryptic — only in recipient — message on his blog:

Dear Ex Lover,
Perhaps you didn't understand the last time I told you to stop contacting me, so I'll do my best to spell it out for you. I do not wish to have you in my life anymore. I don't know how much more clear I can be about it. It would serve you best to move on with your life and find someone who can put up with you, because I'm done trying.
I hope this is enough closure for you.
Goodbye.

P.S. If you need me, you know how to find me.

Call me crazytown, but I don't think he's sending the memo to Jessica Simpson. He's always been so glowing and nice about her, after all. Plus, he has a lot of other ex-girlfriends like Minka Kelly and all those rumors about Cameron Diaz, just to name two. So, to whom do you think John Mayer is sending this very public message?

    you know, I can usually be the first to understand that John has kinda a wacky sense of humor, but I think he's just being an *sshole ... and um, yeah, the PS makes no sense.

    Now that's nice and juicy, hmm.....

    But, the p.s. at the end was a little contradictory to what the whole body of the letter was about. What would his English teacher say? Eye-wink

    If he wants her (or him Eye-wink ) to go away so badly then why does he add that PS?

    He's prob not directing that at anyone.

    He's prob practicing lyrics for a new song or something.

    Cos I seriously doubt anyone would have a hard time leaving him alone Sticking out tongue

    Is the whole thing a joke? He seems to like to mess with people. The PS is contradictory which makes me think he's just having fun...I doubt it's a serious message to anyone.

    Ha, ha. This is pretty funny. Sounds like he's a media wh*re. Sounds like what he said to Jessica but it could be any of them but why say it in the first place? Yeah, who cares?

    I think he just wrote that to get attention and make it seem like someone is chasing after him. It makes him look more desired but I doubt there is any substance behind it. The P.S. is the irony of the whole thing. I think it refers to the typical situation in which people break up but find themselves still seeing or talking to each other and it is never really over. It is him trying to be insightful about the whole relationship thing.

    well if you click on the link to his blog it says this above the note:

    "I was sitting in the airport lounge this morning when I started scribbling out lyrics and such...
    Don't read too far into this on a personal level. (There are no hidden messages)... I just thought it sums up how crazy love can be."

    Think it's a joke. If not he must be really really jonesing to lose someone's crazy attention.
    But that P.S. is such typical boy double-speak, and it's no wonder girls act crazed sometimes.
    Wow am I glad I'm married and out of that scene.

    he is acting like such an ass by posting that, something that he KNOWS will make it around the internet and humiliate his ex..whoever he is referring to..i almost think tho, that for someone to invest that much time and effort..he must be bitter about something and that was his way of expressing it. Plus that PS means that he really doesnt want the contact to end anyways..weirdness

    It's directed at no one.

    He was hoping it would cause a stir and people would be all over the news talking about it. I think he's a loser. It makes me not want to ever hear him again when he pulls crap like this. He can't live without the public (he would be a nobody if there was no one to buy his music) and he can't live without the media. Buying them jock itch and lotrimin, how STUPID. Goes to show you he spends time doing stupid sh*t instead of something worthwhile. Just like him dressing like Borat on his cruise. That was down right disgusting and offensive, but in his mind it's all about him. I can't stand the guy!

    haha i don't usually either - but after reading the little intro, which conveniently gets overlooked to make a juicer story, it made a lot more sense to me too!

    and i find the "note" ironic as everyone else does too, but it is often like that when a relationship ends, wanting to stop communication but saying if you really need me call me.

    What would be funny is if this is what one of them sent him and he just wanted to put it up on his blog. I doubt thats what it is but it would be funny

    This combined with his stupid 'gifts' to the paparazzi just reinforce his jackassery, in my opinion.

    Okay, I get that he said it shouldn't be taken to a "personal level." However, I WILL do what he wanted people to do by posting it in the first place - gossip about it. Sticking out tongue

    Anyhoo, if either were to be the real author of such a letter it would be Jessica. She's obviously happy in a new relationship. He seems to be the type to want to turn it around to look like she's the one not over it. No one likes to be seen as the one who was dumped or being rejected. And by putting in "oh btw, this doesn't mean anything" is just like saying something seriously but then saying, "I was just joking" when someone has a problem with it.

    And btw, eff you John Mayer for making me say something nice about Jessica.

    These are the basis for lyrics... He could just as easily be the recipient of this letter, and is poking at mixed messages from an ex.

    If you have ever been constantly badgered by an ex, you would know what he was talking about. I have a high school boyfriend that I dumped who still tries to contact me (he knows I am married), and another old one I dumped who continually sends me emails!! I wish I could let them know the same thing!!! And the PS was sarcastic...ever heard of that???

    I say Jessica Simpson kept contacting him. She has been dumped more than anyone I know! Also, she is probably the most immature person around, needing her Daddy to make all her decisions.

    i figure that either it's completely made up or is some random person - not even a celeb becuase to be honest with you - who of all the girls he's dated would really be that upset about not being with him?

    Ok I have to say for the longest time I thought John Mayer was just an avaerage d*****bag too, but now I think he's kind of funny. I read some of his blog and the guy obviously has a warped sense of humor which I can appreciate because I do too. So I guess not everybody would undestand something like this. Anyway I'm sure it was just something on his mind and it may not be directed at anyone but was probably brought on by his feelings for one of his exes. He probably has the contradictory feelings displayed in the message and is just using the blog as an outlet. And for everyone talking about what a media wh*re he is, I think all of us have a side that wants to be noticed and celebrities actually have an avenue of expression that allows them that attention. Don't hate him because he chooses to exploit it.

    Ah, Gigger, good points. I can see it that way too. Maybe John wrote the letter to Papa Joe!

    What an attention wh*re.
    Having said that, I don't think it's about Jessica.
    I think he's making a commentary on relationships in general. The last line is telling.
    But the fact that he put that out there knowing people would blame it on Jessica makes him an attention wh*re, overall d*uchebag.

    I'm with the group that doesn't think it's directed at anyone. He's just messing around. I think he has a really sarcastic, dry sense of humor that a lot of people don't grasp. I have a similar dry wit and I can't even tell you how many people think I am a b!tch, when really I think I'm just funny Eye-wink.

    And for those of you that don't like his music...his commercial stuff is not nearly as good as his Trio stuff. You should all listen to Try!. It's really good and he is a phenomenal guitar player.

    i dont think it is about Jessica-everyone knows she is in a new relationshiop so he would not have put 'find someone who can put up with you' also he has been very nice about her post split.I think he is just after attention....god knows why when he conplains about the media.
