I've gotten to where I say "Hello? I'm single because I've MET your husband!~"
I was invited to a wedding tonight and thought about this thread,, this is how it went: "My friend Larry is getting married tonight (at a local bar no less), there should be plenty of single men there!"
Thanks,, I'll pass!
Yeah, same-day weddings, bars and single locals COMBINED = no thanks for me too I think. I moved into this town a few months ago and got invited to local karaoke night at a neighbor's house. Went every other Saturday night, had a great time, everyone seemed friendly until one woman didn't like me chatting with her husband and within one week that turned into mass hysteria and a small town mob mentality began and soon other women were pretty sure I gave their husbands "certain looks" too. I was then told I was not welcome to karaoke night anymore. To be honest, I was horribly hurt and was sad that my new neighbors all believed this stuff.
With time, I'm getting over it. It does help to laugh about it. Sounds so juvenile but I guess they weren't my friends anyway if they don't know me better. The funny thing is, you should see these husbands! Not attractive, missing teeth, beer guts, grubby, gross beards, etc. (My apologies to any men reading that fit this description). Hardly men I would try to steal. lol. You couldn't give one to me, never mind me steal one.
And yes, now a couple of neighbors have started waving again as they drive by, and so I'm pretty sure they think I must just be a lesbian since I haven't stolen any men yet. And people wonder why I'm a loner!
