Thanks For The Kidney Honey, But I
Think We Should See Other People
By: Mr. Sensitive
Hi
honey, how are you feeling this morning? Still a bit under the weather
from the transplant, huh? Well, the doctor said it would take a couple
of months. Surprisingly, I'm feeling a lot better. Better than I have
in years thanks to you, and although I've said it once before, I want
you to know that I'm totally grateful for the kidney you gave me that
saved my life, but I'm afraid I have something else to discuss with you
now. You see sweetheart, I think we should start seeing other people.
Now before you get all upset, let me just say that I still love you and
that you will always hold a special place in my heart. Honestly, I've
never felt the same kind of compatability with any other woman that I
have with you, and I'm not just talking about our blood types and major
histocompatibilty complexes, either. Ha ha, just a little joke there,
but anyhoo... as I was saying, it's not you, it's me. I guess I've just
been feeling a bit stifled lately, a little suffocated, if you will, and
think I need some 'me time', you know?
Listen, I know we just had a baby together last year and I can see how
this might have given you the impression that there was some kind of implicit
commitment being made on my part as a result, but what can I tell you?
I really like Brendan, and don't get me wrong, he's a cute little guy
and I hope to maintain a relationship with him that I'll cherish for a
lifetime, but I'm just saying, as of now, I feel I need a little time
to myself with some new women.
Oh come on lumpykins, don't cry. The last thing I ever wanted to do was
to hurt you, but who can account for the capriciousness of human affection?
As Woody Allen said, "The heart wants what the heart wants."
But I swear to you, on my mother's grave, that none of this is your fault.
This is all on me. The weight you've put on in the last few weeks and
your non-existent sex drive as of late had nothing to do with it at all,
honestly. Really, there aren't any other reasons that I haven't mentioned
already for me wanting to see other people, like your sister Charlene
for instance, so let's just leave it at that.
What? How could you say such a thing to me? You know what? Fine. I thought
maybe we could possibly get back together sometime in the future, but
if you're going to use that kind of language, you can just forget it.
Later, bitch.
