In a developing story out of San Diego, 28-year-old Cassidy D’Erico appears to be truly reaching to justify continuing to date this particularly shitty dude.
“Eli seems to have a good relationship with his mom,” she said, not even really believing that herself. “That has to count for something, right?”
Cassidy, who has been seeing this guy for just over a month and would lose nothing by walking away from it, dove deeper into her attempt to sort of validate him in spite of it all.
“He doesn’t look like he’ll go completely bald for at least the next two years or so,” Cassidy said. “Plus, he only interrupts me once in awhile and has a really good part-time job!”
“I mean, he can’t cook, he doesn’t read, and he thinks politics are a waste of time, but he’s so kind to animals,” she added.
“Cassidy has totally stopped trying to convince us on this mediocre dude,” said Rachel Quinones, a long time friend. “So at this point, she’s just trying to convince herself. I don’t really understand why, she has done and can do so much better than him.”
“The bar for straight men is on the floor, so I guess I can understand why Cass thinks this barely-functional dude is worth waiting for,” added Jason Gurkey, another close friend of Cassidy. “But like, he’s lame and he’s not even that hot? I don’t get it.”
For Cassidy, this is business as usual.
“If I’m being honest, I kinda have to do this with most of the guys I meet,” she said. “Either I have horrible taste, or dudes as a whole are just half-assed.”
“Maybe I should join The League or something,” Cassidy added.
