Girls, if you have a blog that your boyfriend reads, do not put the following on it:

“Sometimes I wonder if I would be doing Nathan a favor by just breaking up with him. It’s hard for me not to want to spend a lot of time with him. I can be sober around him, not like with most of my other friends, and no one makes me feel as safe. But what does he get out of being with me? I just eat his food and spend his money and ambush him when he’s trying to take a shower or watch sports. He cooks me dinner and buys the beer, while I smoke his cigarettes and watch cartoons. I mean really, what's he thinking? I know that I make him feel special, since few women go crazy for blond body hair, Dutch eyes, and geeky writers like I do. But weighed against the fact that he gets propositioned for sex daily by other women, and I break his stuff like it’s nobody’s business, I still don’t get it. Frankly, it makes me feel a little guilty.”

And now I don’t get it. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with me? What the hell is wrong with her? And how long could the answers to those questions be? I’m betting six pages apiece.

Quick, someone consult the breakup pool. Somebody's got a column to write.

If you're gonna break up can you do it closer to June 4th??? I kinda want to try writing a comedy peice.

I dont see the problem.

It sounds like your both as screwed up as the other.

As log as neither of you outdo the other in the stuff-up stakes, you'll be fine.

And if you do, whoever is worse can move on to dating me, queen of screwing things up. So its all good from where im sitting!

1) grow a pair. girls arent always sure of things, and thats news?
2) girls who proposition people on the internet really freak me out.

that is all.

cmon nate,

it's not that girls aren't sure of things that bothers me. it's that by asking that question, she made me think, "holy shit, she has a point." It really fucked with me. Oh and last night Amy and I had zero conversations about this post. remember kids, communication is key.

Hmmm... so I guess now I know... hahahaha

Nate, I told you in the very beginning, you get OFF on the crazy girls.... I mean, if you were to be with a normal, stable, non-clingy girl, you'd have absolutely no excitement in your life. You secretly like taking care of her, and you like feeling like someone else needs you. But then again, you guys "break up" every weekend, so this is nothing new. She's probably just putting into words what she's been thinking since day one. I mean, seriously, look at my boyfriend, WHY THE HELL am I with him??? who knows, it remains one of life's unanswerable questions... You guys will have sex and be FINE by sunday.... then onto breaking up again next Friday... HAHAHA

Ashley, that was just harsh and untrue.

maybe you should like... tell her what you get out of being with her.

seems like that would clear things up.

bonus points if you tell her through a blog post.

Being fond of another person has so many dimensions. I don’t think it is possible to explain every one of them. Add to that the things we like in another that we aren't aware of. The whole process seems to me a form of subconscious selection. Why do we like anyone? We just do. This includes having a significant other whose faults we must have found tolerable. Otherwise, why would we have taken it so far?

Random sex is awesome, but it is random for a reason. Finding someone you want to spend a substantial part of your time with is a totally different thing. There has to be something there from the beginning that leads to forming a repeat performance.

Uh...I think Amy was a tad mistaken.
