Dating and other natural disasters

Dear Mrs. Higgins,

So, I get home the other day to see a call on my ID from a girl I’ve dated a couple times - nothing serious, and nothing lately.

No message, but I call her back and she has a computer question.

Yup, a computer question.

I want ‘em to love me for my body, but they love me for my mind. (which is also a bit scary)

Anyway, I help her with the computer issue, and we do really have a nice chat.
Then, suddenly, she lowers her voice, pauses, and says

“I’d love to get you in a gym sometime”

Ok, what?

A trashy hotel? A beach? The cereal aisle at Walmart?

No!

A gym.

Not sure what to think about this, Mrs. H. What’s your take on it?

Mike

Dear Mike,

As you already know, that girl bowls on a different night than you do.
She’s way out of your league.

But, come to think of it, every woman I’ve ever seen you with bowls any night but yours.

Aren’t you a little past that chapter where appearance is the thing?

Its ok if girls like your mind. (God help them)

Just be you.

But maybe a couple pounds less of you (how about 30) wouldn’t be a bad plan.

Kiss that little bruised ego like the boo boo that it is and go for a walk.

For a couple days.

Love and kisses,

Mrs. H.
