Coming out of the Closet

Why do women always say that

they are coming out of the closet

when they break up with me?

Dear Biff

I don't know what to do.

Last night at a party, one of my friends told me he opened the closet

to get his coat, and he found my girlfriend, on her knees, in front of

a man, who was holding her head.

I rushed out to the living room just in time to see my girlfriend

coming out of the closet with Steve, a friend of ours, sort of ...

really more of an acquaintance than a friend. Sort of a friend of a

friend, really. You see, there's this librarian I know, who introduced

me to Steve ... well, not in person, you see, but over the internet,

and we've chatted. So, we had never really met until that night, but

he was sort of a friend, I guess. Well, actually, he probably chatted

more often with my girlfriend than me, but I still considered him my

friend.

Well, anyway, I confronted my girlfriend, and asked her what was going

on.

She said that she had lost her earring, and was looking in the closet

in case it had snagged on her scarf.

So I asked her what Steve was doing in there with her, holding her

head.

She said that he saw her looking, and came to help, and was turning

her head to where he saw something glittery on the floor.

She even said that someone accidentally closed the door while they

were looking for the earring.

The thing was, I looked, and she wasn't wearing earrings.

So, I became very suspicious that maybe they were fooling around. But

it just didn't add up. After all, why would she be on her knees if

they were kissing?

She tells me there is no reason to be jealous, and that nothing was

happening, but if I would just give her a pearl necklace once in a

while, she might not lose her earrings so often.

I just don't see how buying her more jewelry will keep her from losing

her earrings. It seems like the more jewelry she has, the more likely

she is to lose it.

And, I still keep getting this weird feeling that something just

wasn't right.

Dear Mr. Dumas,

I think you are overreacting to what was probably a very innocent

situation.

Obviously, if your girlfriend was on her knees looking for an earring,

she couldn't have been kissing Steve.

And, of course she wasn't wearing earrings - she told you she lost

them!

Are you always so jealous of your girlfriend? Let me tell you from

experience that nothing can turn off a woman more quickly than

jealousy. One of my ex-girlfriends broke up with me when I accused her

of messing around under similar circumstances to your own. During a

party, I found her in our bed, under a pile of coats, with one of my

friends. I yelled and yelled at her. But then she explained that she

had her hands in his pants to help him look for his wallet, and I felt

really stupid. I apologized, but she left me anyway.

You would think I would have learned, but I accused my next girlfriend

of messing around because she kept sneaking into the men's bathroom at

our favorite pub - when there were guys in there! She told me that it

was just because there was a line in the women's restroom, and she

couldn't hold it. And, all the guys in there vouched for her, too.

So, I finally learned my lesson about being jealous. I think you

should give your girlfriend the benefit of the doubt here, and tell

her you are sorry for being so jealous.

But, just to double check my opinion, I asked Darla what she thought.

She agreed with me, and said you should also give her that pearl

necklace she wanted, to prove you were sorry.

Funny thing is, she said with Biff gone, she could use a pearl

necklace, but I just don't have that kind of money laying around, and

I wouldn't want my boss to get jealous because I bought his girlfriend

jewelry.

I hope this helps,

James

We are at day 54 of Biff Watch, and we are still asking our loyal

readers to keep an eye out for Biff. He should be easy to spot: he's

over six feet tall, late 40s, prematurely grey hair usually greased

back, and prone to smoke a pipe. His personal hygiene tends to slip

when he's off on one of his trips, so he may be sporting several days'

beard growth.

If you see him, please snap a photo or get some video, and send it to

jehitch@redflagpublishing.com, along with information as to where and

when it was shot, so we can track him down.

Thanks,

James Hitchcock
