Rejection Diary
The Regional Cheating Plan
Dear
Harlan,
My
current girlfriend has an admitted issue with long-distance boyfriends.
She actually cheated on a boyfriend before being with me, but
she says that she is not a cheater when someone is "in town."
My first question is, have you ever heard of this, and is it normally
true? The second question: Should I be worried if she leaves on
a trip or if I do?
Girlfriend Problem
Dear Girlfriend Problem,
Imagine if a girlfriend came with a coverage map, similar to a
cellular phone's. The green areas would be the faithful zones,
and the red areas would be the unfaithful/roaming areas. Coverage
area is based on the emotional energy a girlfriend is willing
to invest.
From
the looks of her map, yours is not willing to invest much. She's
only ready to commit as long as it's safe, easy and available.
A more serious girlfriend would love you and stay with you no
matter where you traveled - together or apart. Sure, your girlfriend
is probably very capable of being faithful, but only under certain
conditions. If you're looking for something serious and reliable,
find a girlfriend with a better coverage area who isn't all over
the map.
