Way back when I lived in Florida in like 2008, I was hanging out with a platonic female friend, who was a year or two older and wiser than me at the time.
Gets in car with me, she starts driving and ranting, and I propose an obvious solution. she pulled OVER AND STOPPED. Looked at me and said, Cork, this is a teaching moment now, NEVER try to give a woman the answer, even when you are correct, she just wants you to listen.
I refrained from teaching moment her right back with a solution which would have been stop being illogical AF and you won't be mad and on the side of the road right now either,

Dammit. I was hoping the ending would be "After that, I listened super hard, and I gave her a teaching moment in the back seat of her car."
Nah later that same summer I did one better, I bought her house so she could go teach English in like Poland or somewhere and then sold it back to her 3 years later when she came back and I didn't want to live there anymore.
Good points. No idea where she is now. She was never very internetty, just someone that ran in a big circle of friends I had in the Miami area at the time.
yikes
this should have brought you great comfort, as a man, as it is a satire of women in relationships. I for one, love it.

Is she no longer a year or two older? Or is she no longer wiser? Or is it simply just no longer the time?
