I have eight golden rules when it comes to men: 1. No dating or going out on dates. 2. Never let them know where I live. Lie if I must. 3. Never pick up a guy in a particular social setting that I may frequently attend. Or, never sleep with a man whom I have the chance of running into on a regular basis. 4. Never have a guy over to my apartment for any reason. My gay best friends are the only exceptions. 5. Always end things before a guy starts to want more. 6. Always use protection. 7. Never sleep over at their place after sex. Once we've finished, or in most cases, they've finished, dress and leave. 8. Always have more than one exit strategy.

Rules that keep her guarded, safe and free - but then, along came Joe Covelli.
