It's not you, it's me...

I read the NY Times piece just before Christmas about the questions couples should ask themselves before getting married. Interesting stuff. But I beg to differ with NYT on the things that really matter: over the years my girlfriends and I have amassed some truly classic stories about boys and the real reasons we extract ourselves from relationships. Here are some of the best:
  • he wore blue Y-fronts

  • he used an excel spreadsheet to work out which friends he needed to call when (am pretty sure there will be more on this particular sin in another blog)

  • he was 'too nice' and therefore highly suspect

  • he ordered chicken on his pizza

  • he laughed hysterically whilst coming

  • he felt like a brother, and she's not into incest

  • he asked what her top five films were

  • he said he didn't like curry

  • his dad was bald

  • he once said he might vote conservative (even though she wasn't very political)

  • he had a funny neck

  • he was called barry white

  • he was rude to a waitress (dump the bastard, i say)

  • he shopped at H&M

  • he didn't shop at H&M

Lucky we don't all come clean when we're saying goodbye, huh?
