How To Destabilize A Man

She

  • cancels a date at the last minute and apologizes, but won't give him a reason.
  • describes her evening in five words or fewer ("It was really fun"), and then goes straight to bed.
  • talks politics with her mouth and sex with her eyes.
  • is alarmingly honest and answers "terribly" when asked how she's doing.
  • actually forgets to wear a bra in summertime.
  • makes an office meeting more exciting by discreetly laying her hand on his thigh.
  • settles her scores with scores, instead of talking it through.
  • grabs hold of a stranger's arm to walk down the stairs in heels.
  • manages to pay the bill before he even asks for it.
  • randomly exclaims, "This is the most wonderful day of my life!"
