I hate the new couples tagline
In the spirit of Valentine's Day, I responded to an email Tyler - the eHarmony guy- sent me.
This is on behlf o everyone who was ever dumped for what seemed like bogus reasons.
Enjoy.
Hey Tyler -
I've been trying to think of a response to your email.
But all I really keep thinking is, "I wanted to date you."
Please read all the following not in a pushy, whiny way, but in a more frank, easy way:
I have no idea how I want to respond to your talk of friendship. I mean I have friends. You have friends. And I'm friends with several men I've dated... So awkwardness isn't an issue. But, for the first time in almost two years, I started dating someone I liked, that I was looking forward to liking more, who (pretty much) inexplicably dropped me. And the reasons you gave didn't really sound like reasons guys break up with perfectly cute, upwardly mobile girls who teach spin class and have college degrees.
I thought, and still think, you're handsome, charismatic, intelligent and wildly amusing. And, then there's the chemistry.
So I can only fearfully guess at what grave personal deficiency I must have demonstrated to make a man who's dating a woman who thinks that highly of him, drop her.
So, respond when you feel like it. I look forward to it. But I don't do fairgrounds, no matter who's selling what.
The bewildered bombshell,
Megan
