So you finally woke up sober one morning and got a real glimpse at the person you’ve been screwing? Sounds like it’s time to purge yourself of impurities and your other half.
A new age-y atmosphere and a healthy vegetarian menu will appear innocuous enough. You won’t even mind the 300-pound woman glaring at you from her table by the door. Or when the same woman loudly demands to be moved when the clean cut band starts setting up near her. You won’t be irritated when the band plays "Girl from Ipanema" as you glance over the menu, or annoyed when the band repeatedly plays the same song several times over during your brief stay.
Don’t worry about preparing your date for the fall. You’ll both be distracted by the people streaming in and out of the mysterious door next to your table, the trinkets for sale from Nepal, the choices of fake meat dishes, and the hair in your food. Just remember not to eat anything; a pile of vegetables can be more dangerous than you can imagine.
A little later in the evening when your date starts to really feel the meal, a glassy film will cover his eyes when he really, desperately needs to find a restroom. This is when you tell him that you don’t think you should really see each other again. He won’t care, because at that point in time he really needs to run. |
