The good thing about totally giving up on women is that it gives you a lot of freedom. For instance, if you want to go see a movie about “The Band”, you don’t have to worry that your date will find it boring or say “what band?” or something equally disappointing. So when the Band’s “The Last Waltz” was playing at the local cineplex, I jumped at the opportunity. To be safe, I chose a Friday matinee to avoid the embarrassment of going to a movie by myself, surrounded by happy couples.
As I was buying my ticket, a beautiful woman, around my age, walked up to the window next to me and bought a ticket for the same exact show. She, too, was alone.
Now I’m thinking: this is a sign from God. There I was, feeling like a loser for going to this movie by myself on a Friday afternoon, and in walks a woman with the same idea. And she’s gorgeous.
