Rutmance

let's discuss the phenomenon known as the "filler crush". we've all been there. you're not totally seeing anyone else. and, for some gawdawful reason, you're not crushing anyone either. so you fall back, and fall back hard.

you go back to that guy you know you're not into just because you're bored.

now, careful girls, filler crushes are sometimes confused with a romantic regression, where you end up messing around with the ex who's totally wrong for you. different situation entirely. the filler crush isn't nearly as serious. you can still get hurt from it, of course, but the wounds are self-inflicted. you end up realizing that your life is totally pitiful and you're just straight up pathetic.

it stings, i know. but, honestly, sometimes the best cure is just to wait out the rutmance period. odds are it won't last more than a month or two -- excruciating, i know. trust me, i know... but you gotta believe you'll make it through. i mean, you can't end up g-chat flirting with some dude you hooked up with less than a handful of times just cause you needed a place to crash for the night, can you?? oh god...can you?!

hey, if things get desperate, you can always throw on a pair of fuck me pumps have 9 grey goose and grapefruits and end up with yet another victim on the regression romance list. there's always that.
