....and it's with a funny story. Who doesn't love a good funny dating story?!
So my gal pal went out with a guy tonight that she met via an online dating site. This was the second date--the first "date" was just a meet/greet over a cocktail. This was a bigger deal: start with dinner, open-ended, who-knows-where-the-night-will-take-us scenario. Butterflies in the tummy, carefully planned out outfit...the whole nine yards.
[You should know that my gal pal is no dummy: she always Googles her dates before she meets them, in case their axe murderers, rapists, or...(gasp)...without an online presence, which is a red flag in and of itself these days.]
So, as Mr Fantastic is late for this dinner date, she finds herself with a few spare moments to check around the internet for any signs of freakishness. And it's not what she finds that gives her pause, it's what she doesnt:
No divorce filing. But wait, she thinks, he told me he was divorced...
Mr. Fantastic finally shows up and after a bit of small talk, she cuts right to it:
Her: What state were you divorced in?
Him: Minnesota.
Her: Really? 'Cause there's no court record of it anywhere. Not even an initial filing.
Him: Well...umm....
Her: Are you divorced or not?
Him: Well, in my mind, I am.
......Annnnnnd....SCENE. She paid the bill (since there's no sense in owing a guy dinner) and was out the door.
Integrity? Naw.
Honor? Nope.
Fully-engulfed, flaming pants on a liar? You betcha!
