Bash Said It Better

This needed to be separate from the more important previous post but still fits the theme that I'm getting more misanthropic by the second. I think I might be taking it out on the UC friends, too. I'm just carting the drama someplace else. I've been a real ass to them lately and I'm gonna go ahead and put a stop to that now.

DragonflyBlade21: A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired.

That quote has described me so often in the past. Thank you, bash.org. I tried to say it myself in the bottom chunk of this post but I had this in mind the whole time.
