That was another thing he told me. You know--that rationally speaking, he was probably the only person who'd find me attractive. That was before he decided I was evil and hell-bent on his destruction, and before he informed me that he'd adopted me as a fixer-upper project but I just was too intractable a problem for anyone to fix.
Thank you for reminding me of that. Sometimes I forget.

At the risk of sounding stereotypical or against men, this is the kinda thing women say "men suck" about. Form personal experience, bad dates/relationships with guys sting. It just really hurts being with a jerk, or dumped by one, etc. Sentimental or the dental, it's all pain and it all hurts. Hopefully this might have helped in some way.
Well, I'm going to go dig up some quarters or otherwise get change for laundry somehow.
