I don't hate a guy just because he isn't attracted to someone I think is fabulous. Hell, I am friends with several guys who weren't attracted to me--I mean there were LOTS of them over the years, it stands to reason some of them would end up my friends! One of BF's closest friends is a woman who dumped him after dating him for three weeks in Grad School. She's a great person, even if she couldn't see the splendidness which is the BF. One of his other friends is a woman who went out on one date with him and in the middle of dinner said "This isn't working for me." After a year or so, they met up again and have been friends ever since. We used to have dinner with her every month before she moved away from LA and once again, an awesome person except for the not digging BF part.

Coming in very late on this, but Steph, I'm sorry this (one and only one guy who is obviously just not the right one but instead was just a placeholder so you didn't forget how to have a crush on someone and how goofily nice it can be to have a crush while you are having it) didn't work out for you.

Sometime, life is the one that sucks.

Sucks, Tep. I hate crush deflation, it's of the great pain.

I agree with all the other Bitches that this is not evidence that you're never gonna get the True Love on. Don't let it destroy you like that - you're gold material, and somebody WILL realize that, someday. I have faith.

This probably doesn't make you feel any better, since we're on to hating the guy now, but... he could also change his mind, given the opportunity. I think that might be happening for me, with the girl who Just Friendsed me a month or so ago (though I'm not really sure).

Not that you'd ever deign to let him do that, since he sucks a lot and also doesn't know who Tim Drake is because he's a cretin. A CRETIN.

Wait. There are more than two people in the world that don't find Robin attractive? Didn't they see your shiny hair? Didn't they see your smile? Didn't they talk to you for more than a minute?

Well Teppy already gave me permission to hate him, so there.

Clearly, you choose the craxy as friends. Actually, I think that was already confirmed. Erm.

JZ is currently decorating the video box for Jilli's collection of Goth videos that I have snagged for her out of the TiVo. I have sacrificed my beautiful Premiere cover of Winona Ryder with a perfect Louise Brooks bob and vampish makeup closing her eyes and bending her neck to a looming Gary Oldman for the cause. (Honestly, it's the most glamorous picture of Winona I've ever seen.)

My dearest hope for him is that the next woman he falls hard for turns out to be an unrepentant Bush supporter with head lice.

Look, we all acknowledge that he's an ass who doesn't know what he's missing. But wishing a "woman" like that on any man, that's just cruel. I mean, why don't you just wish he get his penis chopped off in a zipper while you're at it? Or that he has unprotected sex with Paris Hilton?

Same thing, really.

People are not attracted to other people for all sorts of different reasons. Why can't one just feel bad for both people that the mutual attraction thing didn't happen? My heart/brain tends to be terribly selective over who I'm attracted to, which hasn't done me any favors.

Well, truthfully, having my Bitches wishing unspeakable things to befall him is actually making me feel a little better.

As is the carrot cake I just ate, accompanied by chocolate milk. (I went to the grocery store, and in the bakery section they had the most perfect thing EVAR -- little single servings of cakes, sized just a little bigger than a cupcake. I resisted buying a whole cake.)
