sarcastic and caustic look at online dating and the life of single-doom.

swing low, swing high

I’m fairly certain I was hit on last night by a husband and wife pair.

I was at a bar late last night. A friend had just left leaving two open seats between myself and a hot Latin guy I know but not well. I was a little annoyed when the couple came in and sat between myself and Senor Caliente as I was hoping to make my move. I turned back to my computer and continued “working”. I noticed the wife making conversation with Senor Caliente and heard the husband join in once or twice. Soon after, he startedĀ  upĀ  a conversation with me. Now, I’ve had to deal with my fair share of jealous significant others so I know the signs. I made sure to cast innocent, friendly glances in the direction of the wife, waving the white flag. The husband was the intellectual type, a college professor, so it wasn’t much of a loss anyway. Not hte way I roll. The wife didn’t seem the least bit disturbed; she was much more interested in her conversation with Senor Caliente.

The husband continued to keep the conversation going and it soon became apparent that he was hitting on me, with his wife in the next seat, making no attempts to hide his advances. I wasn’t sure what to make of this and it was getting late so I began to make preparations for my departure, despite his advances and pleas to stay.
