Gadget Girl
Dear Dyke Whisperer, Why does my girlfriend have the need to constantly purchase expensive electronic gadgets? She’s 28. Will she outgrow this? Is it a phase?
Sick of gadgets and gadget-talk in Atlanta
Dear Atlanta,
It is likely not a phase. Your girlfriend is a gadget-phile, a genetic condition. She will continue to collect, discard, discuss, and lust for gadgets her entire life. Actually, it could get worse.
Think optimistically: you’ll ALWAYS know what gift to get her because she’ll tell you explicitly. You’ll always experience the magic glow of 10,000 little red LED lights penetrating the darkest night (unless there’s a black-out and your girlfriend doesn’t have an inverter or battery backup).
