It’s nearly Christmas – which means it is peak cuffing season and you need to do everything you can to avoid being single. Because there’s nothing more tragic, desperate, or pathetic than being the lonesome, ugly-jumper-wearing, pigs-in-blanket-eating person with nobody and nothing to bring them festive joy, like a sad, single bauble with no jingle left.
To avoid this diabolical Bridget Jones-like fate, you must continue dating the person you don’t like very much and wait until after Christmas to dump them. In other words: drag it out.
