Hey, You Asked

A friend came over the other day to bemoan the state of his current relationship. At the outset, he asked me whether I "could handle" talking about a new relationship of his - he was worried because we had (ill-advisedly) dated once. I let him know that I was okay with it - I pointed out that it's been almost a year, I was the one who ended it and neither of us was particularly happy together. He wasn't convinced. So I laid it all out, "Believe me, I'm over you."

He got so upset at the idea I was over him that he refused to talk to me at all. Such funny creatures, men.
