So, why is it that men have a tendency to reveal everything at the wrong time? Maybe it’s just me and my “open” personality that makes it “ok”.
Here we go…
I was and about this past weekend. A couple of happy hours and a lunch date.
At happy hour, I noticed a guy from across the room staring at me for awhile. Finally, as I was getting ready to leave, he walks up to me, introduces himself, and asks me straight away if I had a boyfriend. I told him the truth, which was “no”. (By the way, I don’t ever feel the need to lie to a guy to get him to go away. There ARE other ways.) He then proceeded to tell me everything about his personal life. He stated that he didn’t have a girlfriend, but he had been looking for awhile. He is 27 years old and wants to get married by the time he’s 28. Additionally, he wants to have a child by the time he turns 30. Finally, he wants his woman to “be in her place” by the time he’s 31. What did that mean for him? I had no idea. What did that mean for me? Time to leave!!
My lunch date on Friday was fine. I’d met this guy at the bookstore about a month back while I was studying for an exam. After phone-tagging for a month, I figured, why not a harmless lunch date? So we sat down, began eating, and started the chit-chat. He started to ramble off about his kids. Immediately, this was a red flag for me. I figured, if he has kids, then there’s a baby-mama lingering around somewhere. And sure enough…he revealed to me, “Ok, I just want to be honest. I have 2 kids and I’m still married. We’re going through a separation so I just want to let you know. I’m glad you’re so open-minded and you seem like such an open person.” Again, I had no idea what that meant, but buddy, if you’re thinking I’m gonna get involved with a married man….THINK AGAIN!!!
What’s the moral of this story? Men, if you’re married (or even “going through” a separation), PUHLEEZE do all of us single women a favor and STAY AWAY!!! Don’t think that you even have the right to approach any of us. Complete your divorce, take some time, and then get back into dating.
And if you’re some 27 year old with your entire married life planned ahead of you, then San Francisco may be the wrong city for you.
Just a thought

to finish your last line…”And if you’re some 27 year old with your entire married life planned ahead of you, DON’T TELL A GIRL YOU JUST MET AT A BAR WITHIN THE FIRST 3MINS OF MEETING HER”
If it were me I don’t think I’d be able to contain my laughter in his face then just continue giggling as I left.
LOL. Trust me, I had to walk away so that I wouldn’t laugh in his face.
