Post-Valentines report, relationship lifecycle

Thursday, February 16, 2006

Man, does time fly or what? Can you believe it? it’s the 16th of February already. It’s been two days since Valentine’s day; two days since I last came to work and two days since I seriously fucked up myself by lacing a stick of Winston red with Baygon in a tremendous bout of v-day depression.

I wasn’t entirely ‘dateless’ on V-day as I had this sort of informal dinner thing with my good friend Maffy who wasted no time in making sure that my already low self esteem suffers a further decline.

Maffy: You know Mike, we’re not ‘dateless’ we’re loveless. I wonder why it’s so easy for us to get dates yet find it difficult to find a person to love.

Me:
[Not really paying attention, eating pasta sloppily, a nasty splotch of olive oil on my shirt] Yes. Definitely.

Maffy: I mean what’s up with you anyway? You’re very smart, you’re funny, you’re successful…

Me: [Not really paying attention, checking out the chick on the table across ours wondering why hot girls like her even bother going out with old, overweight accountant type guys] I hear you.

Maffy: and you’re not THAT bad looking…

Me: [Abruptly shifts my attention to her, my fork drops to the floor] EXCUSE ME?!

Maffy: You know, you’re not exactly good looking, you’re a little overweight but your other traits more than compensate for it…

Me: [Not really paying attention, anger welling up, fighting the urge to commit the largest rape/murder spree in the history of mankind] Get out of my sight. You disgust me.

Maffy: And you have breasts.

Me: [Eyes brighten up] Yay! Breasts!

A couple of clarifications. It’s true. I’m fat, I’m smart (I think) and I’m funny. And if by ’successful’ you mean having horribly calloused hands thanks to a job that requires you to staple pieces of paper together all day then I’m that too. So what’s keeping me from snagging a covergirl girlfriend you ask? The answer, dear friends is my terribly low self esteem. Ask any decent looking girl to come up to me and try to strike up a conversation and I’ll probably do one or any combination of the following things:

  • Run
  • Unbuckle my belt and reach down my pants
  • Have this really stupid, sheepish grin on my face and looking at my shoes every two seconds
  • Fondle her breasts while she’s not looking
  • Nibble on the scrotum of the nearest guy who, almost always, is a security guard
  • Say really stupid things to impress her like having an uber famous blog that gets 4,000 pageviews a day (rough estimate)
  • Run. Then lock myself up in the restroom feeling bad because I don’t look like Nick Carter


Besides, I think I mentioned in my previous post that I’ve sworn off relationships with women. I understand that relationships treat some people better but as for me, it’s the same vicious cycle:
