Dating and other natural disasters - part 2

Dear Mrs. Higgins,

Had a strange experience the other night and I wanted to get your opinion.

I had a date over at my house, and the night is going really well.
Suddenly, she leans in and asks softly, “Do you have any protection?”

Well, as you know, I've been around a little, and knew just what she was really asking.
“Absolutely,” I nodded knowingly. “State Farm: homeowners AND vehicle.”

Then, for effect, I whispered in her ear, “100 dollar deductible.”

I know that was probably over the top, but thought if I could make an impression, why not. If you’ve got it, flaunt it.

Her reaction was a little different than expected. She shook her head and pointed down saying, “you know, protection.”

That’s when I realized that this girl was way smart.

How could she possible know that my shoes had steel toes. I mean, there’s no way to tell by looking.

So I smiled and said: “You’re good baby! Do you want to drop something heavy on my toe?”

Ok, Mrs. Higgins, here is the strange part. Instead of maybe stepping on the end of my foot, or putting a table leg on top of my shoe, she is starting to leave.

Turns out she left her curling iron on, a cake in the oven, and her cat outside. She is really in a hurry to get out of here.

So here is my question Mrs. H: Should I be dating a girl that is so forgetful?

Tell me what you think,

Mike



Dear Mike,

I wouldn't be too concerned. "Miss Forgetful" will probably remember enough that you won't have to worry about it.

By the way, I wouldn’t share this information with your State Farm agent. They can cancel people, you know.

Try not to “flaunt it” any more than you have to.

Mrs. H
