Aug. 1st, 2008 07:32 pmFive worst things to say to someone who just got dumped.
"A car is waiting for you outside. The driver will take you wherever you may wish to go."As if Mr. Stark cares enough to have arranged that particularly for you.
"He meant to have breakfast with you but urgent engagements called him elsewhere."At six a.m. Neither of us believes this one, I suppose.
"If that will make any difference, you're not the only one I see out this way."Which is worse, the implication that maybe there are some that I don't, or the knowledge of certainty that you're merely one of many for him?
"Please don't forget your purse or anything personal."He'll have forgotten about you by the time he comes back and I'll not be able to get your name or other information to get those back to you.
"He will call you."Except that he never ever does. He probably won't even ask after you when I go to talk to him in ten minutes' time.
Sometimes, it doesn't make that much difference to me. If the lady - or ladies - of the hour choose to snap at me, that actually makes it easier. But every single lie that I've had to tell the various selections through the years? There are no good things to tell them, I don't think.
