Interesting movie from the scribs of 'Sex and The City'.
He's Just Not That Into You - The Movie
Here's an excerpt of the book, 'He's Just Not That Into You'
“Dear Greg,
I’m so disappointed. I have this friend that I’ve
known platonically for about ten years. He lives in a different
city and recently he was in town for work, so we met for dinner.
All of a sudden it felt like we were on a date. He was completely
flirting with me. He even said to me, as he was checking me out,
“So, what, you’re working the whole ‘model thing’ now?” (That’s
flirting, right?) We both agreed that we should get together again
soon. Well, Greg, I’m disappointed because it’s been two weeks and
he hasn’t called me. Can I call him? He might be nervous about
turning the friendship into romance. Can’t I give him a nudge now?
Isn’t that what friends are for?
Jodi
Dear Friendly Girl,
Two weeks is two weeks, except when it’s ten years
and two weeks. That’s how long ago he decided whether or not he
could date a model or a girl who looks like one. Can you be a pal
and give him a nudge? Nudge away, friendster — but watch how fast
that nudge doesn’t get a return phone call. And if your dinner/date
did feel different to him, it’s been two weeks and he’s had time to
think about it and decide he’s just not that into you. Here’s the
truth: Guys don’t mind messing up a friendship if it could lead to
sex, whether it be a “(expletive) buddy” situation or a meaningful
romance. Go find someone that lives in your zip code who will be
rocked to the core by your deep conversation and model
looks.
I hate to tell you, but that whole “I don’t want to
ruin the friendship” excuse is a racket. It works so well because
it seems so wise. Sex could mess up a friendship. Unfortunately, in
the entire history of mankind, that excuse has never ever been used
by someone who actually means it. If we’re really excited about
someone, we can’t stop ourselves — we want more. If we’re friends
with someone and attracted to them, we’re going to want to take it
further. And please, don’t tell me he’s just “scared.” The only
thing he’s scared of — and I say this with a lot of love — is how
not attracted to you he is. “
