Finding your perfect lover, dot com If you're the type that always just misses out on getting a girlfriend because you waited too long and lost your chance, I have more depressing news for you. Now you can't even buy one. Not on eBay, anyway. Not anymore.

*snicker* Three years ago I considered asking one of my male friends out on a date. But I spent too long agonizing over whether or not I really wanted to, and he ended up in a relationship with someone else before I made up my mind. [note to self: ten months is too long to dither over whether or not to ask a guy out]
Great column, as usual.

I actually preferred some of the guy auctions that popped up in response, including one who offered to provide a virtual beating and steal your virtual girlfriend, and one that advertised himself as a "imaginary stalker ex-boyfriend."

Hmm. Could you be prosecuted for sending threatening letters if you were hired to do it on e-bay?

That line made me crack up.

And I mean that in a very good way. (I came back just to read your column yesterday, despite drowning in my own phlegm. It's just that kinda column. Also, in a good way. )
