A slightly sticky romantic entanglement (long)

With two (of you) out, are you going to put on the hit-and-run?

Don’t forget to slide. :cool:

Hot buttered monkeys all around!

Update: Spent the weekend in New York with Q. Met a bunch of her friends, roamed the city, had a great time. We had dinner at wd-50 and lunch at Grimaldi’s. (The latter is a recommendation I got from this thread but didn’t get a chance to check out on that trip; the former is a place I’ve been before and of which Q and I are both fans, and a large part of the reason for choosing New York for our rendezvous.) We stayed at a lovely hotel, browsed some entertainingly overpriced shops, had a delicious stop at the Doughnut Plant, and, most important of all, applied copious amounts of butter to many, many oven-fresh monkeys.

Next up: Vancouver.

That’s great, man. Good to hear things are turning out well.

I understand that Canadian monkeys are best when served with maple syrup to go with the hot butter.

Congrats!

This can’t be real. This is like a TV show. Does the OP work in a coffeehouse and live in a huge midtown NYC apartment?

No, but one night, as we were walking down Bleeker, we glanced down an alley and saw a dead body, and then we heard this strange “bonk bonnggk” noise. Does that count?

I don’t know if I should be hungry or horny, reading that! :eek: :cool: :smiley:

Yay.

I’m very happy for you and Q and the Monkeys. Thanks for sharing. My afternoon was quite boring until just now.

Yay! Glad it all worked out!

High fives and primate-like grunting all around.

Understand, this is coming from an old fart who has spent 34 years delirously happy to be married to the same woman, but here’s how I see it:

You’re both pushing 40. Find out whether you are more important to each other than careers, hometowns, friends, all that. If so, go for it and have a happy life together knowing you won’t have to be twice divorced. A and B will end up being your best friends forever and life will be good.

On the other hand, if there are a bunch of what-ifs and I-dunnos, it was the buttered monkeys not meant to be.

Dang, late to the party again. Had I been here two weeks ago I would have said that B & Q, being women, have probably been gossiping about you for some time and I would have a hard time believing that Q has not already told B that she would like to butter your monkey. But, since I am late to the party and that was apparently the case, all I’ve got now is CONGRATS!!

Oh, and don’t worry about the long distance thing right now. At some point, yes, you may have to address the future with respect to being so far apart, bu tin the meantime see how things go with just the two of you, not all the messy complicated stuff.

You just don’t understand girls - we are far more cunning than you ever expect!

As the divorcee in question, I want to say congratulations!

Of course I have no idea who Q is, but I know the rest of the cast of characters. I’m glad you’re having fun.

(I keep telling you that this whole situation could involve much more niceness …)
