Yeah, Doug, but what you had to say was good, so don't worry about it.

Well, heck, I've been single for over 7 years now, and I've been through three major romances since my divorce, but I sure haven't got the rules figured out.

I got summarily dumped in May and I think it may be worse than a divorce - when you get divorced, you usually aren't madly in love. This was the first time I got involved with somebody I hadn't known before. I thought I followed the rules pretty well. Guess I should have read the writing on the wall. It seemed everything was wonderful, but she never seemed to be able to include me in her plans beyond next Tuesday. I wanted to buy season tickets to the summer theater, but couldn't get her to make a decision on that.
Oh, well. If at first you don't succeed...
