And you’ll never find me dating Dan Collins, or anyone like him ever again. I hope I’m able to meet someone who is really and truly available, and I want to be the same way if that time ever comes.
Meh. I can live with it.

I’m really tickled by how she starts with
and ends up dreaming of the guy who will be Emotionally Available* in a way none of the other guys have been.
*I assume this is shorthand for “Never stops talking.”

Funny, but I would have concluded the author of that “EU” post is one of those needy, clingy females that drive normal guys to ordering male-order brides from Asia.
Does it work if you have a mound system?
I don’t know about that, but I can tell you there’s nothing like getting a great big upload done.
Whatever will you do if all the perimenopausal women with decades of psychotherapy get together and refuse to date you? Why, you might even have to date a normal human being. Ohh shivers
easy72 Not likely
Yikes! She’s on to us!
Forget her, Dan. She’s not worth it…
pw her16 yeah, right-
She seems to be the type that is seeking not a man, but a girlfriend with a penis and no tits.
You can get those in PatPong
I don’t know about you but in and among the epidemic of emotionally unavailable women out there, I’m really drawn to the self-victimizing, psychotherapized, newly-enlightened, self-congratulatory parent-blamer. With hormonal issues, gender blinders and the slightest tinge of narcissiblogism.
Because that needy is so attractive. Well, and because I’m an EU.

I’m more of an FO.
That woman’s post literally put me to sleep. Some kind of Pavlovian conditioned response thing.
To translate from the linked article:
“Why am I the only NORMAL person, and everyone else is so screwed up?”
Not that there isn’t a gem of truth about expectations there, simultaneously acknowledged and ignored…
Think make-over ……
“Emotionally Unavailable” translated into English means “dares to occasionally think of their own needs.”
I’m waiting for the update, where she ties EU syndrome back to the climate of fear and repression under the Bush regime.
Good Lord. That picture she has posted screams out, “I have ISSUES! Hear me squeak!”
Could she have found something less flattering?
Why, you might even have to date a normal human being.
At least until his wife finds out. ba-dum-dah!
Thank you! I’ll be here all week. Try the spotted owl.
Huh, I didn’t think assembly would be required on a mail-ordered ball-gag. I learn something new everyday here in PW.
Well that’s a little bit more than “emotionally unavailable”
Her article seems like a lot of whining over nothing in particular, and I feel that I should send a bill for the unjust mileage put on my retinas.
Maybe if she actually enjoyed sex, the guy would be less “emotionally unavailable”. Just my two cents.
There’s an old phrase:
“I Respect the emotional availability of strippers.”
Funny thing is, when I read her post, she never says ‘what’ EU actually is, just vaguely links it to a bunch of problems in her life, which are somehow in turn solved in turn by Psychotherapy, acupuncture, and self-medication (probably shrooms) and yet we never find out what EU really is or what ‘Emotionally Available is’ or the state of being cured of EU.
In short, my BS-o-meter was on 5-alarm mode during the whole thing. I could hardly read!
Also, as it turns out, I can hardly write.
C’est la vie.
Well, my reflexologist’s office was totally out of wack Feng Shui wise, so I had my Crystal Therapist do some Theraputic Touch over my cell phone while I was on my way to my Tai Chi class.
I’ll be saving a bunch of money on that once I get my Diploma in alchemy.
She sounds like a real catch Dan, open your organs, and let her in!
She looks like the madwoman from Little Britain.
Been self-Googling again, Dan?
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Please, slart. I try to maintain a modicum of decorum here.
I think another translation for “Emotionally Unavailable” is “He’s just not that into you.”
“Using you for sex” also works.
