Bill Simmons, an ESPN sports-writer came up with a theory and named it after Patrick Ewing, my favourite basketball player of all time. According to Simmons, whenever Ewing was hurt or in foul trouble, the rest of the team would come together, pull up their socks and do better than they did when he was around.
He applies this to romance and says...
"Can the Ewing Theory apply to romance?
You betcha. Everyone has one friend who got dumped by their girlfriend/boyfriend, sending them into a tailspin. You worried about them and their well-being, you logged major phone time with them, you wondered if they would ever bounce back... and then, boom! Your friend started working out, dropping 15 pounds and suddenly looking better than ever. They also started going out three times a week, rekindling all their old friendships; within time, they had completely regained their mojo. And inevitably, when they finally started dating again, their new flame put the old one to shame. That's the Ewing Theory in a nutshell. "
We're just going to have to see if it works out like that :)
