被拒后:
朋友亦或敌人?
那时我并不以为然,认为凭自己的幽默诙谐,灌篮娴熟,开朗活泼的性格,又有那一个男孩不喜欢在这样的女孩身边呢?
但结果证明父亲是对的。
对此不需要太自恋(samanthabrick,自由专栏女作家曾写过为什么女人恨我等文章,有英版芙蓉姐姐之称),但以我的经验来说,单身异性恋男士在他们认为极具吸引力的女性身上并不想只是寻求一份简单的柏拉图式的关系。
当然这一概念并没有什么开创性,事实上在我看来再自然不过了。
首先我要说的是两情相悦的确是世界上最为美妙事。
但上帝却好似很喜欢玩这种复杂的配对游戏,要么是通过九个半周的交往后,我们想与之确定关系的男孩认为我们的吸引力指数同丢弃的抹布不相上下,要么就是我们对中意我们的男孩不起化学反应,两人总是像隔着一长长的桌台打乒乓球一般。
结果都是以另一方被拒而告终。
有些异性我虽然不想和他交往,但很想和他做朋友,因为他幽默诙谐,有他陪在身边我会很开心,或者他友好善良并且为人真诚(这一类人可是稀缺性品种),或者是他不是每隔一句便提起他的理疗师。
