i can't win

i was working on a paper last night when my friend cassidy came in to visit. she was in tears because her boyfriend had just gotten his mission call and she was going to miss him. she came and sat down on the couch by me and i gave her a big hug. i held her and listened to her sob story. we talked for a bit, i told some jokes, and she was smiling again.

while we were sitting and talking, my roommate joe was in the kitchen and asked her if she wanted a bowl of icecream. he scooped us up a couple bowls and went back to whatever he was doing.

after we were done talking, cassidy thanked me, went back to her apartment, and told her roommates how sweet joe was for scooping her up a bowl of icecream and how lucky her roommate was for having him as a boyfriend!

proof again that girls who say they want guys who are good listeners and supportive are full of *it. girls only want guys who will fullfill their physical needs: food, shelter, and sex.

  2. Oh, man, that sucks. Sorry for that. We women say what we think we want a lot and then contradict ourselves, don't we? I suppose it's just the nature of the beast.

  3. Hey don't be too quick to judge. That night talking to her on the phone she talked about how much of a big help you were and appreciated that she still had somewhere to turn.
