Another one answered my ad in the paper, even though I only bought space on
the one day. I left my new email address, though, so strangers could be
emailing me over the course of the next few centuries if they wanted. Since
I’m not a real person, I’ve not built up enough history to be getting many
other emails, so I’m not worried about being inundated, or anything. It’s not
like it will clog up my inbox, and make it harder to keep up with interesting
news articles. Since, ya know, you don’t really have those here. Moving on,
the woman I spoke to on the phone isn’t an alien, and doesn’t think she is.
She’s just kind of an alien groupie. This was an apparent truth from the
start, that she wants to meet me in person because of who I claim to be, but I
kept talking to her, because what if I’m not the first? If she’s already done
the work of finding people like me, I might as well nurture this relationship.
I don’t want to lead her on, though. Cricket is in another universe right
now—hopefully a very safe one, but cheating is cheating, and I am no cheater.
The way I see it, if you’re committed to someone monogamously, and you want to
connect with someone else, either turn your current partnership into something
less monogamous, or leave them. It’s not fair that you get to have whatever
you want at anyone else’s expense. Your happiness is not all that matters. I
don’t want to be with anyone but him, in any capacity, and even if I did, I
couldn’t do anything about it, because I’m not capable of having a
conversation with him about it first. And anyway, I don’t know who this woman
has met, or if they’re the real deal. Will stay in contact with her just the
same, just like with the guy before.
