Friday Snippet: Threads & Ties — 10 Comments

  1. You nailed the husband hunting Dyann. I’ve met some of those women myself, and they could never understand why I don’t hunt for a husband. 🙂

    And Jeff’s a nice guy.

  2. Jeff is way too nice and has way too much sense. This can only mean trouble is waiting for him just around the bend.

    This is good. You have a good eye for people.

  3. I liked this–the only thing that I wondered about was what were the other guys there thinking when that conversation was happening? Must have been really uncomfortable for them? The shift to suddenly talking about sports with the boys seemed sudden after such an intense, embarrassing (and very good) confrontation. Definitely true…people feel uncomfortable when you get to a certain age and aren’t hitched!

  4. The problem with posting so late is that everyone’s already posted what I was going to say *g*. I also liked that he was secure enough not to fly off the handle about the two women talking about whether he was gay.

  5. Good stuff. I really like it a lot. As a single parent (female) who has taken Jeff’s road of not hunting for a mate, I can sympathize with him. I definitely want to read more of this.

  6. MerylF, I’m sorry. I saw your comments in the Spam Bin and tried three times to rescue you by scrolling through 17 pages of !!@@###@$@##@#@#@$#@$#@$@$@$@$@423 !@!@!@!#!##!#!# SPAM, but each time by the time I got to the end, the de-spammer crashed.

    As near as I can figure you commented in the middle of spam storm (it’s like there’s a !@@##$ spam worm that copies the spam in the caught spam bin, because it see the same loop of crap.

    Akismet is just not doing the job I need it to do these days. Keep trying. We’ll get you out of Askimet spam hell eventually.

  7. This is great. I’m so sorry I missed it last week. The three-way conflict is beautifully handled, and I feel for the poor guy, being treated like meat.
