Boopsie, get some references before you go out with him. Call up his college buddies.

BD just doesn’t get it. You messed up, she is patiently explaining what you need to do, but you still feel entitled.

I think she should date other people. With her personality and talent Boopsie is a hot item. BD isn’t.

She can do better….send him to that other woman and find a man who will appreciate you

Well played, Boopsie!

Dave? Dave’s not here!

" I can’t talk right now. I’m waiting for a call from my boyfriend."

Boopsie plays hardball.

Show no mercy, for you will receive none….

Let this be a lesson, fellas!

Familiarity sucks.

Okay BD, lets explore the options. Do a little new boy friend time, or be alone.

Wow. That last panel really dates this ‘toon. I haven’t used a bag phone in ages. I wish they were back. Of course, BD, might have access to a satellite phone, but even those are dropping the cord.

What kind of a car phone is that?

This is when you should’ve dumped the airhead. Big mistake

Big Dope…

Boy, Boopsie sure is playing hardball! (Not that blame her…) I suspect there’s a bit of Hunk Ra that rubbed off – and stayed.

To all those who think Boopsie should move on to someone else: fast forward to today. BD turned out to be a pretty solid guy.
