No Girly Drama

Lauren October 8th, 2007

For days after you wrote a certain blog entry about a certain Pearl Boy dating experience, a certain Pearl Boy has been trying his damned hardest to meet you over dinner or coffee. You’re surprised by this because you kind of expected him to never want to see you again after reading what you wrote. Then again, he probably wants some sort of closure with you, and you believe in being fair and nice (even when you think you’ve already used up all your niceness reserves). Ignoring your parents’ threats to chain you up in your room until your corpse is covered in cobwebs, you agree to meet him for a quick dinner and coffee on a Sunday evening. Might as well get this over with, yeah?

It’s socially mandatory. When a bunch of women get together, the conversation automatically steers itself towards weight and weight issues. It doesn’t matter who started it, this conversation could go on and on for the next few weeks. And most women who participate in “fat talk” are hardly ever really fat.

I find that almost all the fat talk I’ve participated in involves either sitting in some chichi or snooty establishment where everything is so expensive that looking at the prices on the menu makes me feel like fasting.  Sometimes it happens in a fast food chain while everyone’s gorging on greasy fries and even greasier burgers. The drinks are of course DIET sodas, because nobody wants to gain some unwanted poundage.

Hi Lauren and Kristel. My name is Christie and I’m one of your readers in this fabulous blog. I hope you’re time doesn’t get wasted in listening to my problem. I just badly need some advice. That’s all.

I have a boyfriend of two years and we get along pretty well. I am just confused if he truly loves me or he’s just reciprocating my love. Tell me if I’m just jealous or if I have basis for what I’ve been feeling for him. I don’t get why he’s got more girl friends that boy friends. I know he’s friendly (and he tells his friends he has a gf), but, is it perfectly fine if he communicates with them every single day? I mean, he PMs/texts them more than his male buddies. One time, I found out he was texting with a girl friend while he was with me, but the texts were mushy and all that. I got jealous, alright, but kept silent.

That same night, he called the girl for no reason but to say hello. When I found out about it, I was fuming mad I almost broke up with him. Another time I found out he’d text me good night and yet, he’d still text with girl friends up to ungodly hours. I confronted him outright and told him how I felt. He said sorry and promised he won’t do it again. I forgave him.

Now, he’s still into it. He’s so friendly to his girl friends that I always get irirrated. What should I do? I’m not happy with the way things are going between us, especially him being so insensitive to my feelings. Do you have any suggestions on how I could get even? Just so he’d realize that he’s doing something undesirable to me.

I’m really having a hard time right now.
