copperwise wrote a post that reflects on why you shouldn't be depressed on Valentine's day just because you're single
...and now I must make a confession:
A few days ago, I read He's Just Not That Into You, by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tucillo, writers for Sex and The City. It was sitting on the toilet atlegacyofty's neighbor's house, and I picked it up and started reading it...
And said HEY. waitasecond. this book is thin, but it's not precisely fluffy. It's a real kick in the ass, quite frankly. It starts out gentle, with He's Just Not That Into You if He's Not Calling You, and drags you in deeper and deeper into awful epiphanies.
awful, that is, if you've ever spent time screwing up your gorgeous brow trying to figure out just what is up with that guy - if he's confused, scared, in a bad situation, torn, etc. - and find excuses for his behavior and wait...
or stick with not so good because it's better than being alone...
or tell yourself that he'll break up with her any second now...
Hard truth! He's just Not That Into You, and the faster you clue in and move on, the closer you will be to the guy who is into you.
For me, there is no more wasting time on guys who are confused, or don't know what they want, or are in a bad situation, or who have broken dialing/email fingers.
Of course, that assumes that I want a boyfriend at some point in the future...
