#3-0 (advice for jilted men)
So, in the very beginning of all of this, that still early part of our chronologies where some still claim is childhood but others see it as the first few years of being a young adult, whatever that really means, the two genders walks into it with vastly different versions of what they think things such as dating, and love, mean.

Why they talked to me about it, I don't know. And why they actually listened to me and thanked me for the advice is even more mysterious. So I got to thinking of that, and thus the post.
The problem is, I'm not the best writer goin' in the world. I'm reading this one again and I kind of want to barf. I've used too many gimmicks. But, hey, it's been a while.
