10 Things I Hate About You

Update on "two-faced Dan": I went to a less-than-desirable pub over the weekend (in its defense, it has recently been revamped) and spotted Dan on a date. I remembered how he had suggested that we go to said pub for our first date. I just chalked it up to Dan being new to Ottawa, so I quickly scoffed at (and mocked) his idea and promptly switched the location. Clearly, this is Dan's date hangout! I couldn't tell if he was on a first, second or third date with this brunette. They seemed rather cozy (the interlocking hands seemed a tad unnecessary) . One of my friends said that I was much prettier, which is always nice to hear. In his absence, his date spilled an entire pitcher of beer which made me giggle...

I went out for coffee with a guy friend of mine today. We often swap dating horror stories/strategies/lessons learned, etc. He had recently been given the "This is too serious for me. I've never been in a serious relationship. Can we just be friends?" speech. In any case, he shared with me something that he found helped him during this most confusing time. It seems pretty genius to me: make a "Top 10" list (think David Letterman) of the things you least liked about that person. Hey, whatever makes you feel better. Why hadn't I thought of that before?
