er, that means you've been sitting down for too long, dude... I want you to take 15 minute breaks every hour.
But yeah, there are some women out there I really care about. I lived with one for six months after she broke up with her asshole boyfriend and kicked him out of her house. It was kind of a bad situation, because both kind of wanted a relationship with each other but she was still trying to get over her ex... and then she went back to him becuase he basically got down on his knees and begged for forgiveness... man, I don't know how many times I yelled at her saying "I don't give a shit if you're with me or not, but DO NOT GO BACK TO HIM!!!!!!! He'll be nice for a month or two, just as long as it takes for him to be certain he 'has' you again, and he'll go right back to his old ways, and that would break my heart."
Sure enough that's what happened. Man, it sucks. Fortunately I met a new woman who's good enough to listen to me when I get upset about that situation (only happened maybe 3 mos ago) and not go on some sort of jealousy trip...
As far as appearances go... the woman I lived with was 5' 2", 160lbs. Not exactly a supermodel. But she is one of the most beautiful women I've ever known... as is my new lady, who is 5' 3", 120lbs, and DOES look like a supermodel.
Here is a weird thing : women who are gorgeous by media standards get a TON of shit for it. This girl gets a constant stream of sleazy guys picking up on her. Her looks make even normally "nice" guys start bragging and trying to impress her. When she doesn't want to go out with them she gets called a bitch even though she's really polite. Reminds me of some Ani DiFranco :
God help you if you are an ugly girl
'Course too pretty is also your doom
'Cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
For the prettiest girl in the room
But Christina Ricci is still the Holy of Holies
