Ja I got emotional again. Almost composed an ode, in fact. Luckily I caught myself.

I am beginning to think that the solution to our problems is as ancient as the source of our problems. The problem lies in the contract. You see, a girlfriend is a contract. In that contract are the following provisions:
1) The girl must be sufficiently wooed, dated, pampered and adored before she will agree to the title of girlfriend.
2) The male will demonstrate his commitment to the girl by absorbing significnt hits in terms of time and money and emotional inconvenience, before the girl will allow him the physical pleasures that he seeks as a boyfriend. At no time will these inconveniences be waived in recognition of his efforts to physically pleasure the girl.
3) The male waives all rights. He is always wrong (for the purposes of any future bickering that may not be covered by the 'withdrawal of nookie' clause in the contract) ;-)
So where does this lead us? Well, it is simple. Instead of suffering like this, we should just do what our ancestors did and trade a handful of coins for a shag.
It is much cheaper, more sincere, and has none of the contractual obligations I have outlined. You want a friend? Takes some mates down to the pub to play pool and have a few pints. You want intellectual conversation? Join a philosophy forum. Don't ask the bird for it. We gotta correct this imbalance of effort and returns, gents.
Hehehe
I am waiting for the Amiga girls to jump in and :whack: :argue:
