You know what's odd to me? The number of people "congratulating" me on having a girlfriend. Its like business dude. You sealed the deal. *cough* I didn't count - but when you think of it, that is a funny thing to say. Tho I dug Mike's blunt statement the best. Twas accurate.
What if she were horrible? Maybe I made her up? Possible. I think I'd worry about that if we were sitting at dinner and you pointed to an empty seat and introduced me to your new Girlfriend.
What is she doing wasting her time with a creep like you? ;P I guess she'll find out.
"Good luck with that" and "Hope it works out" make sense. I've decided I have no idea what "works out" mean. Something can "work out" for a few days, weeks, months and even years and still end in breakup/divorce (far far far more often than not). It is strange how we can't enjoy the good times and see "working out" as those good times rather than the end sum.
If there were a time to say congrats, it would seem to me the time would have been when I was NOT whoring about, when I was NOT settling for who was available and showing interest (or just drunk), when I was NOT engaging in risky behavior for the sake of getting off in the short-term, when I WAS showing an ounce of maturity and/or self-control. "Congrats on not fucking everything in sight!" "Hey, you're showing an ounce of self-esteem, and it looks good on you!" "I had no idea what your head looked like from the front." Then again, I guess it's weird to note things not done vs. things done.
