Yes, I should have stuck around long enough last night to read this, it would have been easier to keep my whole shark self on the fish sobriety wagon. FYI - if you haven't read my thread yet, I am STILL fish sober.
Quote: So, if I were to make him curious/jealous, I'd need to have male attention without acting on it. How does one go about this in such an artificial method? I realize that what I was doing when he pursued me was being pursued by other men... but I don't want to be weird about it. Maybe get one of my girlfriends to send me a phony card saying something corny?
Can I be the girlfriend who sends the card? Can I send the lost dog card? Just kidding...
What I would do is maybe buy a cheap bunch of flowers from the grocery store and put them on display somewhere. If Mr. W asks where you got them, deflect the question with "aren't they so pretty? What a pleasant surprise! I just love how they brighten the room" or something equally Bob-ish. You aren't being truly deceitful...just letting him draw his own conclusions. If he gets truly agitated and you want to come clean you can do it without ever having told a falsehood! “Uh, Mr. W…haven’t you just walked into the supermarket and been surprised that the flowers look so fresh? I thought they would brighten the house” still all Bob-like. I tell you; it worked wonders with my hockey game last weekend!
YOU could never be pathetic! And how dare you call yourself so when I was online last night just as pissed as you please about the most mediocre stuff in the world!
Here’s to getting the PMA where it belongs…
GO YOU!!
