Disposable Lovers
December 4, 2005 by NML
We’ve all be beaten to death with the news that couples like Brad and Jen are over. Brad replaced Jen with a younger , sexier, wealthier, slightly creepier model and this got me to thinking; how disposable am I in the game of love? I can’t believe I just wrote the phrase”in the game of love”, but I did. LOL How do you prevent yourself from getting replaced? Do you:
- Have sex on demand?
- Become friends with their friends even if you can’t stand them?
- Laugh at all of their jokes?
- Become their very own support system and even abandoning your own goals?
- Suck up to their parents ?
Even if you follow these steps, chances are you’re still kind of disposable. So how disposable do you think you are on a scale of 1-10?
- 10% you are so rare that no one could ever take your place
- 20% you are still rare, but the danger of you getting replaced is more likely
- 30% your game is slipping and someone else has a small shot at warming your side of the bed.
- 40% you are becoming more and more forgettable by the second.
- 50% half of the earth’s population could make your guy/girl forget all about you.
- 60% you are so disposable that you are likely to end up doctor Phil asking for help to save your relationship.
- 70% you are so disposable that you have already been dumped at least once or twice already by him/her.
- 80% you are so disposable that when you were 70% disposable he/she dumped you once or twice for one of your friends or family members.
- 90% your lover has already moved another person into the house while you’re still there.
- 100% you are so disposable you lover actually forgot that he/she was involved with you while actually still being in the relationship with you.
