CREEPY!

Ok, so here's a tip to all my male readers. When you meet a woman and you're trying to gauze her age, if you are over the age of 24, DO NOT ask if she's just graduated from high school.

I know you think it's a compliment, but it's not. It makes you look creepy a few minutes later when she reveals her age and you state your actual age.

Sorry, I know we've made the rule where you can't ask our age--if you encounter me, I promise I'll tell you because you have a 50/50 chance I'm interested or not but a 100% chance I'll tell you if I'm not.

I promise.

I've had this happen to me at least twice, one more recently and I have to tell you, the whole encounter made me wonder if my free water* had anything like roofies in it and if at the end of the day, that guy would think that ordeal went well.

It didn't, on both accounts.

*Nothing is ever free in life. Remember this. That "free" water cost me 1.5 hours of talking to a guy I was in no way interested in but felt compelled to be nice to after he brought me some water!
