The Player.

Listen.  You have been in the back of my mind as one to go eventually.
I thought you'd make it farther than this!

You see, you're also one of the "Nevers."  But you've been my personal soap opera for quite a while now.  You posted daily updates about the dissolution of your marriage (Dude, don't you know that everyone can see the dirty deets?) and it was almost endearing to see you vacillate between devotion and desperation.  I felt really bad for you, and was silently cheering you on from my side of the internet....

And then you got a little weird and religious for a while, and started posting scripture.  Whatever helps you cope is good for you.  If a picture if Jesus makes you feel better, who am I to judge?

And then you tried to shake it off, and publicly vowed that you were going to go out and get yours.  And you posted all those Jersey Shore "duck face near a brick
wall in a button-down shirt with your hair all spiked up" pictures.  I thought they were a little goofy, but you're a good looking guy, so I appreciated them, and rooted for you a bit.  I hope that worked for ya.

And then you started in with all of the pictures of your dogs.  Hmmm.  But, hey, I do the same thing with my kids -- or at least I did when they were babies -- so, whatever.  Tolerable.

But here's where I draw the line:
  
     ____ started playing Frontierville
     ____ started playing Atlantis
     ____ started playing YoVille  
     ____ started playing Fairy Village
     ____ started playing Car Town
     ____ started playing Hello Adventure!
     ____ started playing Crime City
     ____ started playing Order and Chaos
     ____ started playing Criminal Empire  
     ____ started playing Dreamland
     ____ started playing S.O.S.
     ____ started playing Best Casino
     ____ started playing Island Paradise
     ____ started playing The Island: Castaway   
     ____ started playing Overkings    
     ____ started playing  City Wars
     ____ started playing Millionaire Boss
     ____ started playing GnomeTown


... and there are more.  These are all since August 1st.  Today is the 7th.  I give up.  Thanks for helping me add to my list of blocked apps, though.  I appreciate it.

So goodbye, first real boyfriend.  I'll never forget the Halloween that a grown man jumped out of his car and tried to beat you up in a case of mistaken identity over a smashed pumpkin.  Our middle school relationship was also fraught with drama.  And a while lot of game-playing.

Some things don't change.  Peace.
