January 13, 2005 :: Logic gone horribly wrong

Recently, I found out that a girl I've been dating for the past three months has a boyfriend. What's worse, she isn't the one who told me, her cousin told me. We had a conversation about it, and I let her know that her lame, stupid excuses were lame and stupid. Suffice it to say we won't be going out anymore.

This is where it gets interesting. More than one of my friends has suggested that the thing this woman has in common with all the other women I've dated that have done shitty things to me is that she's attractive. Somehow, I guess women I'm attracted to have a statistical correlation with being shitty. So my friends' suggestion is that I should start dating women to whom I am not attracted. Say what?

I say, that makes about as much sense as setting up a cart in front of a Metro station and offering free meals and scintillating conversation to whatever stray woman wanders out. I guess it does not occur to my friends that unattractive women can be jerky too. In fact, this last episode has convinced me I need to raise my standards. If I'm going to be shit upon, it can at least be by supermodels and rich sugar mommas. Who wants to be shit on by a nobody?
