I can dishonestly say I love you
9 comments
Karen is hard for the reader to warm to. She sounds a thick twat who speaks in daytime TV cliché - “You have been a rock in my life”, Jesus, you’ve only known her a few months haven’t you?
I’ve just had a trawl through the posts and we only started knocking about together since February. And the only remotely effortful thing I’ve done is to go round with flowers and chocolate and sympathy after she got mugged.
I do enjoy chatting with her, but I’ve had enough of this kind of overheated text shite off women this year.
Fortunately, we stand on the cusp of a New Year. Go ahead and make a resolution. What’ve you got to lose?
Well, my main resolution is to go abroad – I mean to live and work abroad. Of which I’ll write later.
I believe i’m quite guilty of using that phrase in a dishonest way to get what i wanted, in my wasted youth of course now i don’t know what it is between adults i only know it when i see the boyos…
I’d inform Karen that next time you meet and her Ex walks in you’ll be exiting immediately…
Resolutions are over-rated, make a plan and execute said plan, i recommend a dart and a blindfold and big map, toss dart and there you have it, looking forward to the adventures of looby!!!
(and you should read The Adventures and Mis-Adventures of Maqroll by Alvaro Mutis, great book)
Ye gads, how rude! I could never do that to someone, ever. I hope.
I don’t think these women know what love is; my experience of loving someone is that I can’t keep away from him.
Where abroad? How exciting, you’ll be exotic to all the women there, so bound to have lots of fun.

Yes, I’ve said The Three Little Words, but – you know, we’re all in our fifties now. Can’t we have grown up a bit and use it a bit more sparingly?
Thanks for the book recommendation – will add it to the yard of unread books on my shelf :)

Thanks – I’m glad it’s not just me that thinks that. If my ex turned up I’d be polite but if they weren’t getting the hint after a minute I’d explain that I’m with my friend.
Got applications in a few places – I’ll try to do another entry ce soir.
(Ha ha, the captcha is 99p, which remind em – must get to the pound shop today).
i’ve got a bit of a hang up about saying “i love you", or hearing it, for that matter. in any relationship, it has/had seemed to me that once the words are spoken, shit starts to either go downhill fast, or (worse) settle into a routine, where the words are tossed around like an afterthought - “Hey, don’t forget to pick up some tampons for me at the store on your way home! I love you!”
so i have to find other ways to say it, and make sure those i love know it.
have to agree with Homer - Karen seems a bit of a bubbleheaded drama queen.
I couldn’t agree more DF. My only problem is that I do have a bit of a weakness for bubbleheaded drama queens if they’re fit at the same time.
