The demise of the lover girl

[RoseRed]

The steak I am broiling at the moment smells delicious.

That was their only reason for a date, a meal with no intention of a payback.

There doesn't have to be a payback. But there should be a small amount of romantic potential. Otherwise it's just using someone. In this case trading your time for his monetary assets in the form of dinner/drinks.

I don't watch them either.

No slower than you.

 

[stgislander]

Are you slow?
Not at my house.

Actually, a lot of the time it's on just for background noise.

I don't need that kind of noise. Lovey–Dovey stuff is irritating.

I am so glad I've been with the same woman since February 1978.

This is us in the Fall of 1978.

Yes, that was, may still be, a big thing a few years ago. That was their only reason for a date, a meal with no intention of a payback.

My sister would sometimes date a guy because she wanted to ride in his car, or because they were going someplace she could never go otherwise.

I think that's what my wife does. She doesn't seem to be terrribly engrossed in them when they're on.

Wait!

This is new?

Punchline

W: (after slapping man) "What do you take me for?"​

M:"I thought we had determined that and were just negotiating price"​

What's your ID on TINDEER ?
I'm always up for a good piece of meat.

I wife has a stack of them next to her night stand. She says they are the only things that can turn her brain off so she can fall asleep at the end of the day.

I like to read a lot of mystery and thriller, romance novels are to cleanse the pallette in between.

I don't watch them either.

Me neither. They're the "video/movie" version of the Harlequin Romance...AKA Bodice Ripper novels, which I last read as a teenager, I think. And not very many since they're.all.the.same.story.

We're having Ribeye steaks on the grill for Christmas!

(with Broccoli cheese casserole, and roasted, smashed and loaded potatoes!)

Like all the VC Andrews stories.
