Girlfriend....

11:49 PM |

Or something like that...



Question: Do you have a girlfriend? Answer: Something like that? Really? As you peer back at the guy with the 'you have got to be kidding me face', you sigh and just shake your head and go on about your business.

What is this 'something like that'? This isn't a do you like me, check yes, no or maybe question. You either do, or you don't. Forget about all the intricacies of a relationship. The question isn't meant for you to give a dissertation on whether or not girlfriend is an appropriate term to use when describing the woman/women you currently spend your time with. The question is meant to determine whether or not you are available. And if you have anyone in your life at the current moment that you are kicking it with on a regular/semi-regular basis means that technically you are not available.

...OH...

And fiance, is a girlfriend with a ring (uummmmm.......sort of, not really) so the answer would be yes you have a girlfriend. You slick bastard.

If you're going to go on and do your business, why even bother with giving a lame-o response like 'something like that'? Think you're being somewhat upfront? Kinda putting it out there with the hopes that the girl you are trying to run your game with believes that things aren't as serious as it could be. When in actuality if it really was nothing serious, you would have just said 'I date, but I'm not currently with someone'.

What you think we're stupid? Get over yourself.

RIGHT! Something like that means, I do have a girlfriend (or girlfriend with a ring) but I still want the opportunity to get with you and any other random woman and still not be something like a lying, cheating bastard.
I think a lot more people are more willing to enter an open relationship with the understanding that it IS open but PLEASE, give me the opportunity to make an informed decision...
