When the Other Shoe Drops
Dear Mr Cool,
When we parted on Sunday night, I had a nice feeling in the pit of my stomach. You seemed like such a nice guy--we had such great conversation and it seemed like you FINALLY gave the "yes I'm interested" signal. And yet...why was I not surprised to get an email from you this morning with a quite different intent?
...To be honest, I probably should not hang out with you too much, as I began seeing someone a month or so ago, and it has recently been expressed to me that my hanging out with other girls is not appreciated. :) I guess timing really is everything, huh....
Hmm, was the sentiment expressed BEFORE you kissed me on the porch? What does "not hang out with you TOO much" mean? Why did you follow up that excerpt with "let me know what you think of the movie" [which you can't see with me because your girlfriend wouldn't approve]?
Why does it always seem to end like this?

Not to rub salt in the wound, but perhaps our next book club selection should be He's Just Not That into You: The No-Excuses Truth to Understanding Guys or Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus? Lord know I don't have any constructive advice to give.

My advice? Become a lesbian. I've already indocrinated you with my wiles and will soon be receiving a toaster for all my nefarious work.

Men are bad. That's exactly why I'm hetero5exual.

i am the last person to give any relationship advice, so i'm not gonna. but take comfort if you can, in the fact that (most) men are just dumb-- that's why they dislike hanging out with smart women. (urgh!! he's so bad.. if i could just slap him!)
