Health Issues-How to keep your man a few more days

I have been hanging out with several guy friends 4 to 5 days a week for the past 2 months since I lost my job and have realized how women are able to keep some of these Dallas guys going…Health Issues.

Play the health card for sympathy, and you can usually gain 5 to 8 days depending upon how long test results take.

My favorite story of the past two weeks is Kelly (name has been changed).

Kelly and Steve have known each other for a few years and tried to go on a few dates back in the day that panned into a friendship. A few weeks ago Kelly sends a text that says, “I like you.” Steve and I review the message and decide to respond back with the following: “I like you too and would love for you to come to Frankie’s to join us with drinks on me of course.” I even step outside of the bar and call Kelly leaving her a voicemail that we would love to have her join us as well…No response from her the entire night.

The next day Steve receives a message that says, “You’re rude.”..God I love it.

The messages go back and forth and then evolve into another story about the guy Kelly is dating which will posted later.

A few days ago Steve shows me a message from Kelly that states she has to go to the doctor…the next day the message has now evolved from doctor to surgery. We all start to get nervous for her and reach out asking if she needs help thinking this is pretty serious.

The next day Steve is discussing with me that maybe we should not have made fun of her and that perhaps this is a very serious matter with surgery involved. As we are discussing, we send a text to check and see what the status is..and the final message is oh the test results come in on Friday.

For a week Steve has gone from who cares this girl is crazy to there may be a problem to she is having surgery to test results on Friday..and of course last night we are at dinner and receive the final text of “Results are Normal”

Classic!
