could I be positive? no, but I do get bored, which could be confused for the same thing.
So then the topic is my new ‘dating strategy’. First, it should be noted how sad it is that I need a ‘strategy’ whereas most mammals simply see something they like and f-ck it. Apparently no one likes me.
But the good news is I have plenty of free time on my hands during a typical workday to scheme. Naturally I let bad statistics be my guide in all trivial decisions. One thing that strikes me is all the married people around here. Aside from being depressing, it also usually provides entertainment to guess things like: who wears the pants, who’s actually fatter, and how much is he paying for her? Yet, it also reminds me of divorce.
Now noting the average US divorce rate is roughly 50% and that regular dating is even more flippant, the odds are then that the two people I see together today will probably be run over by a bus tomorrow. But for those not run over, they will probably be split anyway, if not less forcefully.
So how can this be important to me? Glad you asked. As it turns out, there aren’t many things I do well (see Directions, Dancing, Cooking and Speaking without Belching chapters if you don’t believe me). But of the few things I do do well, flirting with ‘taken’ women is certainly one of them.
So then I should be able to take advantage of the numbers and use my strengths to gain the desired result. Noting that my only other ‘strength’ pays along the lines of ‘sushi’, it would seem as if I could be a natural at this game.
So then comes the moral flexibility question: if you’re going to flirt with a taken woman and be the ‘rebound’ guy, are you allowed to yell “Woohoo!” the next time you see her ex, or are you stuck with just the obligatory “Thank You” card?
