One of my bf's, Dawn, called to make plans for going out this weekend and asked if I was free tomorrow night? "I can't tomorrow night, I agreed to meet Mark out for a drink ..." [Mark is 30 yrs old]
As I am on the phone with Dawn, my Mariah starts wildly trying to talk over my conversation ... I'm ignoring her ... when, she quickly writes down on a piece of paper and places it in front of me ...
you're going on
a date with a
30 yr old,
and so am I
:)
Ohhhhh emmmm geeee!
My Mariah is crazy about a boy who happens to be 30 years old and a super nice guy that she knows well through church. They are not dating, but I understand exactly why she adores him. I think he is a fantastic guy, too.
Her date she is referring to is a group from church going to a basketball game. Mariah calls it a date and bought an entire new ensemble to impress him.
Mine isn't a date, it is simply catching up with a friend I haven't seen in a while over drinks.
I get Mariah's point though.
Mariah laughs and wonders out loud which one is older? I assure her that I am not interested in dating any 30 year olds, we have just been friends for a long time.
It reminds me at one point in my life, I really didn't want to be dating when my girls were old enough to date, too.
At 17 and 42, we both have plans with a 30 year old this weekend.
Honestly, this is ridiculous.
