When The Writing is on the Wall.
1. The first time your boyfriend questions what you’re wearing. Unless he’s Calvin Klein, Giorgio Armani or Tom Ford, it’s really unacceptable;
2. The first time you realize your boyfriend doesn’t read the paper: you tell him you’re really perturbed by what’s going on in the Gaza Strip, and he asks you if that’s a new shopping mall;
3. The first time you realize that once the sun comes up and you’ve sobered up, you really have little in common and have nothing to say to him;
4. When you realize that you are part of 46% of women who would choose the Internet over sex:
5. The first time you notice that it’s 4pm and you’ve just now thought about him for the first time today;
6. The first time you realized that no, you would absolutely not take him on a deserted Island;
7. The first time you hit on his dad;
8. The first time you realize that the one thing keeping you and your boyfriend together are Breathe Right stripes;
9. The first time you realize his shoulders aren’t broad enough for you to cry on;
10. The first time you finally admit to yourself that he’s ordinary and you, of course, are extraordinary.
Did I forget any? Let me know.

January 1, 2009The first time you introduce your man to girlfriends, they smile politely and go on with their conversation about the Loblaws and Marche Metro rivalry. What? No cooing and whatcardoyahdrives?? I knew then it was time to write that Dear Jonh letter…or Oh Dear Jonh I-am-bored-already letter…

2) When he orders a glass of wine instead of a bottle
3) When he says “Meet me” instead of “I’ll pick you up.”
