[Background: Text conversation between me and a wildly successful, charming, relatively-older-than-me-but-still-on-the -young-side New Yorker I briefly dated. We had great chemistry, he made me laugh, he has money coming out of his ears-and after two broke and dependent boyfriends, it was nice to meet someone with some financial stability. Call me crazy, but I actually might of liked the guy and could've seen us turning into something serious. Downside? He made it very clear that he was after one thing, and one thing only, and made me feel like he didn't take me seriously.]

Former Suitor: 'Hey KP. How are you?'
Me: 'I'm well, thank you. I am dating an old flame. [fib] We're doing great! [fabrication] Parent's adore him. [falsehood] I'm happy [untruth] I think we might turn into something serious this time. [falsity] He's just what I'm looking for: funny, smart, tall, dark, and handsome with the smoothest chocolate skin I've ever seen! [my pants are currently on fire. Also, I'm deliberately describing a man who has every physical attribute, and I'm alluding to every attribute, you wish you had.] Things are looking up at work, too [lie]. Still climbing that corporate ladder [flat out lie]! I hope all is well for you. [truth] Please lose my number. [absolute truth] This is good-bye [irrefutable truth].'
