Gosh, I don't know why I never realized all this before. Of course, we all know women only live for male companionship on a Friday night. And G*d knows we would never consider breaking off a relationship unless we were *sure* there was another male waiting right outside the door. After all, a woman without a man must surely be miserable, mustn't she? And, of course, breaking off a relationship she has put a lot of time and emotional energy and love into couldn't possibly be at all unpleasant if she knows she has another one waiting right around the corner. Ross, I really hope there was supposed to be a :-) after the above paragraph and you just forgot it. I find it difficult (as well as distressing) to believe that you are *that* insensitive and chauvin- istic. Believe or not, women *do* live for something besides men.
