I love this. Everything about it. Let me count the ways…
- It starts with an unwarranted apology. I know you girls are constantly telling yourselves that you shouldn’t apologize for nothing –for just existing– but personally…? I think it’s cute.
- It’s made up of multiple coherent sentences. (Emoji aside.) See, I talk about “dumb girls” a lot, but it should be understood that I’m mostly interested in emotional stupidity and poor decision-making skills, not actual, illiterate dumbassery. I sometimes speak in paragraphs and expect a chick to keep up.
- It evinces an adorkable attention to the meaning of words.
- It focuses on the writing and addresses me as a writer, rather than blindly reaching for my cyber-dick and making vague, empty promises of sexy nonsense. This is a girl who recognizes why I’m here and what I’m trying to do.
- Secretly, I kinda liked the emoji.
Be more like her.
