a striking dark-eyed stranger

I think I'd like to make a complaint about boys, so Chilly doesn't feel quite so cheated.

Every once in a while, I'll meet someone through a mutual friend and be so ... he'll just have a light about him. (Much like Hobbes in this here question.) He'll have that wholesome attractiveness, and be nice, and I'll just think, "Yep, I want someone like that."

Invariably, he'll either already be dating someone, or shortly begin dating someone. Usually the friend that introduced us.

What I need to do, obviously, is hone my homewrecker skills. I'm known for that. That way I can steal the men I want.

So, that's my complaint, and my plan of action.

I could also complain about having to use a walker again, and how I still feel sick from either anesthesia or painkillers, but that's not nearly as exciting.

Now that we're catering blogs to me (rock on!), can the next one be some home wrecking tips? I tend to find the dating/about to start dating someone boys as well.

Or the ones who are moving halfway across the country in two weeks, but I don't think your course can fix that.

I'd better not! I'd hate to be the cause of thousands of broken homes when women throughout the world use my brilliant schemes to further their own desires.

The only advice that anyone will give me about this is to flirt like crazy and try to be more attractive and appealing than the competition. It helps to have an amazing smile. It's my smile that my roommates call "The Homewrecker."

As for people moving away, get their address. Letters are so romantic.
