everything you ever thought about love was a lie

'how you both handle breakfast tells you as much about what's going on between you as the night before. if the sleepover occurred at your place, you really should offer him something no matter how you feel. you fucked him, you can pour him a glass of orange juice. that's all you have to do if you're feeling mortified. even if you don't think he's boyfriend material, you can still give him a bowl of cheerios and a coffee. reserve the offer to make pancakes or, most romantic of all, an invitation to the greasy spoon around the corner for a guy you really like. [is there anything cuter than a greasy spoon on a sunday at noon? all those sex-drunk, messy-haired new couples sharing the sunday new york times?] this is vital. there's something about pancakes on weekend mornings that makes people want to go back to bed and have sex again: use them with caution.'

ha! old-fashioned decorum books rule.
