FOR THE OTHER WOMAN…
BY GIGI

Another New Year’s Eve is fast approaching and the married man that you were creeping with for most of 2007 won’t be spending it with you! MmmmHmmm…Christmas, if he spent a few hours with you, it was just a holiday string-along. I bet he told the missus that he was running out for batteries—for 6 hours. So feeling like a big fat loser (and I’m emphasizing the fat here) this holiday season, just remember…girl it could be worse.

Holidays are typically very emotional and very hard for the other woman. It reminds you that it is the end of the year and he still hasn’t done anything to change his circumstances—but hope is a very powerful emotion. Because no matter how suicidal or homicidal you feel this holiday season, there is a bright side…I think. You can dump him because you deserve better; and mark the New Year coming as a brand new start and a new beginning. OR, you can continue being alone, this time of year…sweatpants clad, frequently drunk (I’ve heard…) and potentially enraged!

Girls, know this—that the married man will do and say anything, especially during the holidays to hang on to you. “If only I’d met you years ago” to an emotionally needy woman sounds like a hugely flattering line. And he can morph into, “I wish I was waking up to you on Christmas Day.” Ladies, just remember, IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AND IT’S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN!

Christmas, New Years, Valentine’s Day, Father’s Day and even his birthday; these occasions are most difficult because they follow each other and they’re all reserved for family and this leaves you the other woman, out in the cold…and to all, a good night.
