Likewise, can't you feel even a little good about finally
showing up that neurotically obsessed ex-girlfriend of yours,
the one who bored you with stories of her never-ending divorce
and her inability to sustain decent human relationships even
with her therapist? Why must you carry the burden of good
taste and sensible dating habits all the time? This is your
chance to shine as an irresponsible hussy--don't let anyone
get in the way of that.
I suspect that after you and she have been through a couple
more boyfriends, you may be able to find common ground again.
In the meantime, enjoy the morally questionable sex with your
rebounding divorcé. It's gonna be great.
Even though he is gonna dump me after having sex, I still
want go out with him. I want to spend time with him until
I go back to my country. I don't understand him. The way he
asked me out was very romantic, and he was very serious about
being my boyfriend. It was the greatest way of asking me out
in my life. I am very disappointed now.
Here's the confusing part: Just because he likes you, that
doesn't mean he's going to date you. Why are boys so confusing
about that? Another shot in the dark: It could be he's intimidated
by an international teenage girl (ITG), a person who has a
life and existence beyond his world of drag racing and dead-end
Quickie Mart jobs. He may feel undone, unable to follow you
into your suave intercontinental lifestyle, your soon-to-be
brilliant career at Tokyo University or perhaps the World
Congress. Only one thing is certain in today's global economy:
that you will certainly abandon him by the end of October.
He'll have nothing left to comfort him but the empty joy of
tractor pulls and Rose Parades and tiny scraps of email from
overseas.
As you note, your ATB is the romantic sort. But we Americans
are not the type to respond courageously in the face of doomed
love affairs. Try not to worry about it. Enjoy the rest of
your time with him, whether he's a friend or boyfriend or
something in between.
Read Marguerite Duras, walk in the Chinese garden, drink
international coffees; someday, whatever you had with him
will feel like enough.
