This is starting to get depressing...

Liz says:
The question at hand is only this: Is he making lame transparent excuses about marriage to cover for the fact that he really doesn't ever see a future with you? That's the hard question. And women are smart. If they really got quiet and stopped listening to the excuses, or believing what they wanted to be true and what they hope he's really saying, and just got all centered about it, I think women would always know. They'll always know the difference between a man who truly has issues with marriage but is deeply committed to the relationship and them, and a guy who's just being a weenie.

If you can find him, he can find you. If he wants to, he will.

Ladies, you are going to meet, and have already met, many, many men in the years that constitute your dating life span. And I hate to tell you this, but some of these men will simply not be attracted to you. I know you're hot, but that's just the way it is.

Are there men who are too busy or have been through something so horrible that makes it hard for them to get involved? Yes, but there are so few of them that they should be considered urban legends.

The big questions is, "Is it okay for a guy to forget to call me?" I'm saying to you, "No." Barring disaster – someone had to be rushed to the hospital, he was just fired form his job, someone keyed his Ferrari – he should never forget to call you. If I like you, I don't forget you, ever. Don't you want the guy who'll forget about all the others things in his life before he forgets about you?

You can feel like crap and be alone. Or feel like crap and at least have someone to spend the holidays with. It seems like it might be a fair trade, except for the fact that it means the only two options you are giving yourself involve feeling like crap.

No matter how traumatic a divorce was… the person you plan on spending your life and having kids with should love you enough to get over it if getting married is important to you.

I enjoy reading the daily words of wisdom from He's Just Not that Into You. In fact, I have the book. Keep them coming. As a side note, I'd like to make sure you know that Pride and Prejudice hits DVDs Feb. 28. We Janes Austen girls must get together and watch it.
"You must know... surely, you must know it was all for you. You are too generous to trifle with me. I believe you spoke with my aunt last night, and it has taught me to hope as I'd scarcely allowed myself before. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love... I love... I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on."--I try to block out some of this scene, but there are some genuinely gooey romantic parts that make me sigh. MacFayden eyes are so soulful :)

Awwww, Jocelyn. I didn't know you felt this way. You are too sweet. Oh, wait. This wasn't for me? You mean it was movie lines? Well, crap.
