I read this book along time ago.... 'He's Just Not That Into You'. I think every single girl should read this book. Not only is it hilarious but it really gives the kick in the pants I think a lot of us need.... That said, Greg quotes a girl in this book that I swear, if he had actually called me and interviewed me, could be me:
'My friends all say I should stop talking to him, but I think he misses me, and I like that. I miss him. I feel if I stay in touch with him, it will remind him of how great I am, and eventually he will realize that we should be together again.'
So, I have this guy in my life. He's been in my life for years.... we've been friends, we've been lovers, we've fought.... somehow he always keeps coming back into the picture. And now, even though I have moved to another country on another continent, I still keep hearing from him, on a regular basis. My friends think he's an ass... and I know, deep down, that we have no future together. But part of me likes the continuous contact because it does make me feel like he misses me and wants me. The truth is, I think he misses having a no-strings (ahem) fling with the girl who comes at his beck and call. I think it's really more a matter of, 'if I have nobody else, I can always get back with Jennie'. And really, is that who I want to be?
If this were one of my friends I would say drop that loser, get a grip on reality, and find a man who appreciates you.
So why is it that, when it comes to my life, I can't follow my own advice?
'This is the way you left me, I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory, No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love, Like it's forever.
Then live the rest of our life, But not together.' (happy ending - mika)
