This is supposed to be whimsical–not angry or bitter. If you think I’m being bitter, get over it!
What it’s like to be single:
At Family Reunions
“So how’s work? Good. Are you dating anyone yet?”
On talking to a girl
“Oh you like her. I saw you talking to her today.”
On calling a girl
“Ooooh you called her. When’s the first date?”
On mentioning a girl
“Oh you must like her. Why else would you bring her up?”
On talking to a girl (again)
“I saw you talk to her twice, you really must like her.”
On eating lunch in a restaurant
“Do you see that girl? We could totally hook you up with her?”
On not dating
“Why aren’t you dating. You’ll never get married if you don’t date.” (DUH)
On friends…
“What about XXX, you seem to be really good friends.”
On looks…
“They would make such a good couple.” or “They look so good together.”
I think this could single-handedly illustrate the current divorce rate…
Being set up
“I know this great girl. You should totally meet her sometime.”
Of course there are other conversations, but these amuse me the most.
