WHAT DOES "SINGLE" MEAN?
External link:
About 3 or 4 years ago, I went out with Julia B.. We only went out twice. She lived about 3 hours north of New York, and I lived an hour and a half south, in Philadelphia, and we used to meet here in New York. I can't remember when or why we stopped seeing each other, but there must have been some reason. So, we really lost touch, except that she always sends me a Christmas card, and if she sends it early enough and if I'm un-lazy enough, I send one back. And every time she sends it, and every time she sends an e-mail to update my contact information for her, she always seems to go out of her way to mention her boyfriend, over and over and over again. "Me and my boyfriend" this, "we" that. So, it was interesting to get an e-mail from her saying that she had moved to the New York area, and "I" just went on a trip to Italy, and "I" just finished unpacking in my new place, and "I" would like to hang out with you on Monday. So, being the confrontational, shoot from the hip guy I am, I called her on it. I said almost word-for-word what I just wrote in this blog entry, and she said, "I was going to talk to you about it in person." But I pressed her. "Are you single?" I asked. Yes, she assured me, she was. "Well, now that's interesting," I said. "Don't you think that's interesting? That you are single, and we're going to see each other again?" And she allowed as that she thought that everything was interesting.
Okay, so I hung out with her Monday night, and it turns out that she, in fact, just moved in with her boyfriend a couple weeks ago. She insists that she thought I was asking whether she had gotten married. So does she really not know what "single" means? Or was she just lying to me? But why? Women.
