Women can be their own worst enemies.
Why do celebrity types, after being dumped by their husbands or boyfriends, wait a year and then come out with "I Learned To Love Myself After [enter dumpster's name] Left Me" media blitz?
Usually these women have lost quite a few kilos, have accepted that their dumpster is now dating - or has married - someone who's 100 years younger than him, and are getting all giggly about the prospect of returning to the "dating game".
Just do it OK? Shut up about it.
These stories are not inspirational, well not to me at least. They are based on a cliche that's trotted out all the time in magazines and the "chattier" (see "white noise") sections of newspapers and the TV news.
You rarely, if ever, see dumped celeb men paraded in this way. Apparently they are allowed to get fatter, or skinnier, go silly with their mates and generally carry on with getting over being rejected without the nation judging them. Then, in time, maybe our hero will meet someone, maybe he won't. Amazing.
All this goes on without lame stories about these poor dumped blokes undergoing extreme manscaping to make themselves more attractive to the ladies, starving themselves or wondering aloud if anyone will ever love them again because, after all, they aren't that young anymore.
Maybe these dumped men have been approached to tell their story, but said no.
There's an idea. Just say "NO". A single word with so much power.
Yes, being dumped is horrible and can tear massive holes in your self worth, but this crap hurts women more.
Ladies, it's time to dump this cliche.
C'mon, I'm sure you always suspected it was a stupid, boring, good-for-nothing presence in your otherwise fabulous existence.
