I demand a new law for attractive people: if you are attractive, and you are alone, and someone comes up to you and starts talking to you, and it gets past the polite conversation stage, it is your obligation to stop and say, in a truly friendly manner, “I have a boyfriend/girlfriend.” I just think that this makes sense.
Yes, it is also annoying to speak to someone at a bar or party or zoo to have them say, 45 seconds into the conversation, “I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND.” But it’s even worse to talk to them for 45 minutes without knowing. 45 minutes is an exagerration. 5 minutes. 5 minutes is insane. Think about how long 5 minutes is. That gives you enough time to listen to all of “Call Me Maybe” and then blow a monkey. If you’re into that. I don’t give a fuck. Just tell me that you and the monkey are involved before it gets anywhere.
You may think this is directed towards you, and in all honesty, you are the inspiration for this, but this post has been a long time coming. I would much rather know, straightaway, if you are not single, rather than find out later and have fears even worse than dying alone: going to a party alone, the kind of party where you’re encouraged to bring a date and YOU’D RATHER DIE, YOU SAD MISERABLE SACK OF NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING nice hair though.
I was under the assumption that this was the thing to do, period. How the hell did someone manage a 45 minute conversation TO FINALLY TELL YOU THAT MUCH LATER that they are seeing someone? RUDE. Society, you suck.
I take it you met Robert Pattinson
Per your tweet, hardwood floor as in your all buff down there? If yes, then, youre doing something wrong.
You know, I have a hard time with this one. I hate, HATE, talking to someone for a long time before finding out they’re not single, but then again, I am not single and sometimes I just want to have a damn conversation (and if its interesting, all the better) and not scare some guy away by saying I have a boyfriend. And then I’m all alone at the party and it’s worse than being single because my boyfriend isn’t there and my friends are all talking to hot guys who aren’t telling them they have girlfriends.
Or something.
I’m an asshole.
Shouldn’t this be a rule for all, not just hot people? Just sayin’. It would be so much easier if it was stamped on everyones heads though, or displayed somehow..ugh. I will say though, from a guys point of view; you don’t just feel the need to blurt “oh btw I have a girlfriend” when talking to someone – even a (potentially suitable) girl. As far as we know it’s just talk. That is until she says “Oh do you fancy meeting up some time?” – then it is time to say such. Yes, a guy thinks this way.
Girls are the worst about this. They lead you on forever and then don’t tell you untilt he very end until they wave to their boyfriend and introduce you. Why
