Men Are Idiots
There are a few lessons that men never seem to learn. Maybe a seminar in Chick Flicks could help with that.
The lesson from Dangerous Liaisons? Never, and I mean never, tell a woman that has loved you that you have now found love, the greatest love you have ever known, you've never felt such joy, such contentment, such passion. She will seriously fuck you up.
It doesn't matter that your relationship was in the past. It doesn't matter that you're now friends. You've been rude, insulting, dismissive, and cruel and you probably don't even realize it.
All women, on some level, expect their lovers to live out their lives singing the melancholy strains of 'He Stopped Loving Her Today'
We go on and have good lives; you miss us horribly forever. Those are the rules.
