Love Poems for People Who Don't Like Being in Love Rowen Bridler

From surviving the discouraging blow of being handed a damp (but clean!) towel from a guy who had enthused about her in his text messages but was incapable of providing adequate facilities for a proper shower, to ranting about getting a yeast infection because guys don't have to consider such irritating consequences, Rowen Bridler explores the good, bad and the hideously ugly aspects of modern dating. Describing the perils of falling for a guy who ends up dumping her via text because she didn't tell him off for one night of lacklustre sex compared to the previous fantastic one, versus the thrills of enjoying one night with a guy who courteously meets those two basic requirements of using protection and getting her off, these clever but poignant poems will provoke uncontrollable laughter or an avalanche of tears depending on the context. Whether you're basking in the memory of the most amazing sex of your life or you've reached the point where you'd prefer a decent hookup to bypass any further mindfuckery because love is just too damned painful, then this book was written for you.
