- Naaaah...not me! Why should I be desperate? I have more than enough friends,
- both of the male and female persuasion, and even though I'm not currently
- sleeping with anyone but myself, three cats and a rabbit, I have enough self-
- respect to not be *quite* so obvious if I *did* find someone I wanted to sleep
- with. Besides, I am quite happy *not* sleeping with anyone else at this point -
- it makes life *much* less complicated.
-
- It would be patently idiotic of me to make the effort of going out and finding
- someone to sleep with, knowing that I will be moving back to the Bay Area in a
- few weeks. Unless, of course, you consider a relationship to be one-sided,
- and your sexual needs are all that counts - then, I suppose, you could go out
- and find some woman that would be willing to 'fuck' you.
-
- No, thanks. Not for me, sorry.
