Girlfriend, you’re not alone

What a great article [“That’s No Way to Treat a Lady, Girlfriend,” Sept. 1]! I’m so happy to know that I’m not just a weirdo baby for my experiences with girlfriend breakups that were as embarrassingly painful as being dumped by a guy. Thanks for treating all of us to such an insightful, funny and provocative perspective on something most of us would feel too stupid and pathetic to admit publicly.
