I should’ve ended it months ago. There’s no fire with him, no spark. He’s attractive enough, but he’s just too nice. I even pick fights to see if he’ll stand up for himself. Instead, he simply acquiesces.
I have no sympathy for him. I need a man who will argue with me.
When he brought up the idea me making him dinner, I was so surprised he actually asked me for something, that I agreed, all the while knowing I’d dump him that night.
Rachel came over to help me with meal prep. “What are you serving?”
“Tea and disappointment.”

*slow clap* Very nice. Like Lance, I’ve been that sad sack of a dude in what seems like another life. Great – now I’m remembering a certain person I’ve been trying hard to forget. Tea and disappointment, indeed.
Awesome job, as always.
Agree with everyone else: that last line is awesome!
Last line is killer! Perfect.
Love this!
Killer closing line!
Nicely done! I remember being in that same situation ~ “tea & disappointment”. ;)
hah, I like it – the last line is great, though I feel bad for the guy.
wow, I want to hate this because I’ve been that nice guy before but it’s written so well I’m applauding. She’s definitely been a bad, bad girl. Great 100, Tar Rah.
Excellent 100 Tara, I love the last line!
HA! Love it.
I love it! As I lay here in hospital trying to sleep…impossible…I read this and something clicked. Your writing is cohesive, insightful and fun to read. Thanks, Tara
