No, following Saturday night’s platonic meal, I will not be amending my title for you.
P.S. I did enjoy the lobster though, tasted even better knowing you were paying for it. If only we had champagne, who knows where the night may have lead…

Dinner, which was NOT a date with Harry was ….. Phenomenal. The food was more expensive than a month’s rent, and it was sooooo good.
Harry’s meeting me at Marco’s for happy hour on Friday. Gah

a. Yes, woo, very excited for you blah blah etc. etc.
b. WHAT?! Harry Witthouse cannot intrude on single-ladies-Marco’s-ritual, Harry bloody Potter can’t intrude on single-ladies-Marco’s-ritual.
I don’t want my weekly chance of whinging about loneliness, insecurities, empty future etc. to be ruined by your dashing new office crush!
Have you no empathy for the less fortunate, Kate!? Two minutes no longer single and you turn into a self-obsessed, patronizing ... STRANGER. I just dont know who you are anymore.

Re Amelia’s break down: Second that will be annoyed if Harry Wittperfect intrudes on Marco’s ritual AGAIN. Unless he brings a few hot (equally well educated) men for myself and depressed Amelia.
I say a few, because we want a couple options, room to move, you know? If one’s a dud, at least we’ll have another option to work with.

Yes, you both are right.
So v. sad that I have possibly found decent guy to have happy, healthy relationship with. How selfish of me.
p.s. Will endeavour to get handsome lawyers, clerks, economists etc. for you both on Friday.
p.p.s Amelia I can see you sneering at me from your desk
p.p.p.s Sit down, David from payroll is at the printer, and is staring at your ass.
p.p.p.p.s To be clear, even though possible, not interested in relationship with Harry/professional acquaintance. As will undoubtedly end in complicated, horrendous situation. AND I'M STILL SINGLE AMELIA...IT WAS ONE BLOODY DATE.
