My First "ASK ADAM" Article

Below is my first "Ask Adam" article. As you can see they are quite short and to the point. I did have a word limit as I will try to keep, well basically here. As I said, this was my first artcile. An elderly woman approached me in the library shortly after this was published and said, "Oh it's too bad what that woman did to that poor, poor man!" I didn't have the heart to tell her I made the question up. Notice the reference to Fight Club.

Ask Adam:
Coffee = Date ???

Dear Adam;

I asked a friend of mine for a cup of coffee and she said she didn’t think of me like that. I didn’t want a date I just wanted to have a cup of coffee. When I ask a girl at Fuller out for a cup of coffee does it always translate into a “date”?

Sincerely,
Tyler D.

Dear Tyler;
Thank you for your letter. Sometimes “coffee” means “date,” and other times coffee really means coffee. There will always be tension between women and men- it is in the Good Book. It is a consequence of sin- we don’t always understand each other.

We must know the context of our relationships just as the context of a passage we study. This context is your feelings and the feelings of the other person- these may not always be the same. Tread lightly. Know your intentions- do not be afraid to express them. Be clear on what your intentions are.

Yours,
Adam
