Free Trial Offer

Wouldn’t it be something if, like at a tanning salon, you could get a free week trial on a relationship? Then after a week you could decide whether or not you wanted to join?

What if for one week... we were a couple? Spent time one on one -- Roller discoed -- Held hands -- Gave pecks on the lips before heading out the door -- Sent dirty text messages -- Leaned in close and whispered that everything is going to be okay -- and got bad just about everywhere.

Then in precisely one week it expired, and we could be left to make an informed decision. There would be no hard feelings... because it wouldn’t be a break-up! You could simply just select not to renew.

Then again... a trial is still only a trial. And when it’s $59.95/month to tan in Yorkville... you know you’re not joining. You know your parents wouldn’t approve... you know it isn’t good for you...

Is there harm in still trying?

I guess free trials are only for new customers, and after four years, he and I really aren’t. Unless you pretend to be someone new... But would you get caught?

If I were a one-man girl, I’d be... screwed.
