Public Service Announcement: Commitment

As I stay suspended at 19 years of age and girls get older, it seems that women are more inclined to insist on commitment... and even hint at the ultimate sign of commitment.

Recently I had been getting pretty serious with a young lady, so I took her out for a romantic dinner and a hotel getaway outside of the city. When we were back at the room and I felt that the time was right, I got down on one knee and... went to insert a NuvaRing. http://www.nuvaring.com/Consumer/index.asp


Now, it turned out the girl got all upset, broke up with me and tried to place charges against me! Let's review, I had: 1) spent, literally, tens of dollars on this sign of commitment; 2) made an unspoken vow of faith despite the NuvaRing's lack of protection against commonly-transmitted STD's, including HIV; and 3) made a reasonably fair determination that she did not have a history of blood clots in her legs (thrombophlebitis), lungs (pulmonary embolism), or eyes, which may have caused her to die from, said NuvaRing.


At this point I will freely admit that I do not know what women are looking for in this crazy, mixed-up world.
