Being Open

If you truly want to see into the Simply Fabulous Single life, eavesdrop on this conversation:

Me:                 I'm done.  Really.  I have come to grips with the fact that he's just not that into me.

Best Friend:    Oh no, girl. Do not shut him down.  I will not let you shut him down.

Me:                You are going to have to work fast because I am almost there.

Best Friend:    Girl, you need to be open.  Drink your Frappucino, take a deep breath and be open with the
                      next single guy you see.  Practice.

Me:                OPEN?!  Girl - I have been as open as a 7 Eleven.  I don't get much more open.

Best Friend:    To me, it sounds like you are "CLOSED FOR BITTERNESS."

Me:                NO YOU DID NOT.

Best Friend:    YES I DID.

Me:                I have to go.

Best Friend:    STAY OPEN

Me:                Good bye.

I mean, really. I can see why she keeps me around as her token single friend - I offer her scintillating conversation.  Over and out.
