Letter to Cupid...




Dear Cupid,

Please don't take this the wrong way, but I think you are a steaming pile of dung with rotten aim, or a vicious sense of humor. Personally, I'd like to you see take that whole pack of arrows and shove 'em, and you can do the same with your messed up little holiday too! Single people don't have enough days to feel lonely, depressed, and inadequate, we need a day that really drives it home, to truly make it fester, so we can wallow, and start looking for sharp objects to throw ourselves on, or worse, eat mass quantities of ice cream, or chocolate, or macaroni and cheese or any other food that feels like love while you're eating it, and turns to guilt, and then fat, afterwards.




Maybe I should've written you earlier with a specific request, or perhaps just expressing my desire for your attention would have done me some good. I'm willing to recognize my part in this. Maybe you thought you were done with me and moved on, but surely you knew there was a chance, that the married woman you hit with your arrow, would not dishonor her commitment, just to be with her true love, and I would be left alone with nothing, cold and lonely, and empty inside, like Larry Craig must feel when he lies down next to his wife each night.



I am willing to give you another chance, and this time please aim more carefully, consider... before you shoot, the outcome. Here are some suggestions that might help.



I'd really like something along these lines:













You know, intelligent, witty, fun to be with, healthy, spicy, creative, spontaneous, and gorgeous doesn't hurt. I realize this is late notice for this Valentine's Day, but if you could make this happen between now and the next one, that would certainly be a feather in your cap. If you are not so inclined, please follow the instructions in the first paragraph, and make it sideways!

Skeptically yours, Red Mojo

I don't think he has ever done anything for anybody. The stores like him because he sells a lot of chocolate and flowers.

Colour me hit by one of cupid's lil arrows!! And at a time when I was least expecting it and mostly skeptical about the whole process and pretty much resigned for it to go nowhere, leaving me to my life lived (mostly)blissfully single. Bonus is....the 4 C's you mentioned earlier appear to be all present and accounted for!

It does happen RM just seems to be not always on a path or our choosing/desire. Keep the faith and don't you dare give up kay??

Ces, So you're saying Cupid's not real??!!!

boo7, I know it happens, and I'm glad it happened to you! The four C's are important, you have a good chance of making it last. :)
