Contrary to what many women believe, it's easy to develop a longed, intimate and mutually fulfilling relationship with a guy. Of course, this guy has to be a Labrador Retriever. With human guys, its extremely difficult. This is because guys don't really grasp what women mean by the term relationship.
Let's say a guy named Roger asks a women named Elaine out to a movie. She agrees; they have a pretty good time. A few nights later, he asks her out to dinner, and again they enjoy themselves. They continue to see each other regularly, and soon neither is seeing anybody else.
Then one evening, when they're driving home, a thought occurs to Elaine. She says, "Do you realise that we've been seeing each other for exactly six months?"
Silence fills the car. To Elaine, it seems like a very loud silence. She thinks to herself, "Geez, I wonder if it bothers him that I said that. Maybe he feels confined by our relationship. Maybe he thinks that I'm trying to push him into some kind of obligation."
And Roger is thinking, "Gosh. Six Months."
And Elaine is thinking, "But hey,I'm not so sure I want this kind of relationship either. Are we heading toward marriage? Toward children? Toward a lifetime together? Am I ready for that level of commitment? Do I really know this person?"
And Roger is thinking, "So that means it was... let's see... February when we started going out, which was right after I had the car at the dealer's, which means... lemme check the odometer... whoa! I am way overdue for an oil change here."
And Elaine is thinking, "He's upset, I can see it on his face. Maybe I'm reading this completely wrong. Maybe he wants more from our relationship - more intimacy, more commitment. Maybe he senses my reservations. Yes, that's it. He's afraid of being rejected."
And Roger is thinking, "I'm gonna to have them look at the transmission again. I don't care what those morons say - it's still not shifting right. And they better not try to blame it on the cold weather this time. It's 87 degrees out, and this thing is shifting like a garbage truck, and I paid those incompetent, thieving cretins (subnormally intelligent person) 600 dollars!"
And Elaine is thinking, "He's angry, and I don't blame him. I'd angry too. I feel so guilty, putting him through this, but I can't help the way I feel. I'm just not sure."
And Roger is thinking, "They'll probably say it's only a 90-day warranty. That's what they're gonna say!"
And Elaine is thinking, "Maybe I'm too idealistic, waiting for a knight to come riding up on his white horse, when I'm sitting next to a perfectly good person who's in pain because of my self-centered, schoolgirl fantasy."
And Roger is thinking, "Warranty? I'll give them a warranty!"
"Roger", Elaine says aloud.
"What?", says Roger.
"I'm such a fool", Elaine says, sobbing, "I mean, I know there's no knight and there's no horse."
"There's no horse?!...", says Roger.
"You think I'm a fool, don't you?", says Elaine.
"No!", Roger says, glad to know the correct answer.
"It's just that... I need more time", Elaine says.
There is a 15-second pause while Roger tries to come up with a safe response. "Yes", he finally says.
Elaine, deeply moved, touches his hand. "Oh, Roger, do you really feel that way?"
"What way?", says Roger.
"That way about time", Elaine says.
"Oh," says Roger, "Yes."
Elaine gazes deeply into his eyes, causing him to become very nervous about what she might say next, especially if it involves a horse. At last, she says, "Thank You, Roger."
🙂 Thanks for the laugh Qbone. Dave Barry is a very funny guy - my local paper used to run his articles/stories every Sunday - I always looked forward to them.
QBone - And that is what I have been doing with the virgo I see. Hence, when he comes over - I kiss him on the cheek and say, Hi Honey. Ask his opinions about things - get him to help me with the cat litter and then honestly - just came out and told him, I want a relationship at this time of my life. He stood there for a minute told me he didn't want one and I said - OK fine. Then he proceeds to start to do little things - I don't think he gives it all at one time. If he needs his desired space - then that's fine too. I don't push, but it gets to a point where I think you have to tell a man what it is you want. Not in a bossy way, not demanding, but just how you feel. I find that men are hunters and they like things to be their ideas. And that's fine. If it's my idea and then seven months down the rode - it's your idea, then all the better. I find guys are pretty simple - you have to tell them.
You are a logical type and hate disorder. Your nit-picking attitude is sickening to your coworkers. You are cold and unemotional and often fall asleep during intercorse. Virgo's make good bus drivers and pimps.

If you're thinking of dating a Virgo, your best bet is to invest in a lint brush, some spearmint dental floss, and an expensive pair of double-thick, lined, sanitized, yellow rubber gloves. Are they all obsessive neat freaks? Absolutely n
