The Politics of Feeling Good
The Accordian Guy has a great post on dating ethics in the 25th Century:
Her: Sort of. You see, I got dumped last week...
Me: Oh. Sorry to hear that.
Her: ...by e-mail. What I wanted to ask was: Is that normal for computer guys?
Me: I don't think so.
Her: And if that wasn't enough, he fucking listed everything that was wrong with me. In fucking point form.
Read the post and follow the links for more good stuff. It's interesting, let's head on over to the dating websites and put this to a practical test. Can women spot the point-form dumpers before they strike?
Well, that took ten seconds. Look what some guy wrote:
"seeking a petite cutie with a heart of gold"
Instead of writing about what a great catch I am, like everyone does. I will write about the girl of my dreams.
She is truly one of a kind. I cannot even imagine that she actually exists. I am not assured that I will find her, for maybe she lived a thousand years ago, or she will be born a hundred years from now. She is that unique.
If she does exist now, this is how I would recognize her...
..she would have cried when David called for his "mommy" in A.I.
..she dreams of going scuba diving with me.. and holding hands as we sit on the ocean floor..
..her heart would have broke when Count Laszlo de Almásy weepingly carried the body of his beloved Katherine out of the Cave of Swimmers..
..she would come with me to shop for the most comfortable, most cozy sofa in the world.. so we can cuddle each night in the darkness and watch a beautiful film, or listen to music while we tend to each other in the candle light..
..she smiles softly every night while she thinks of me as she falls asleep..
..she finds wonder in the world around us.. and tries to make it a better place in her own little way..
..she wants to be loved and adored as much as I will love and adore her..
..she craves my gentle touch as much as I long for her warm breath on my lips..
..she is simply... "the one"..
A guy who woos in point form obviously dumps in point form! So watch it.
