A realization

Dixie picked her wine glass up from the coffee table, "Oh no, Wyatt and I aren't dating."

"Oh, I just assumed..." Marie replied, "I mean y'all have been going out several times a week for a couple months now."

"Yeah, but that doesn't mean we're dating. We're just hanging out. He's too cowboy for me, even if he is nice."

Marie leaned forward and asked, "what do you mean, nice?"

"You know, he always opens doors for me, he tells me I'm sexy, he takes my arm in his, and he refuses to let me pay. That kind of stuff."

Marie chuckled, "GIRL! Everyone saw y'all all lip-locked in the bar parking lot last night!"

Dixie put the wine glass to her lips, threw her head back, and thought, son of a biscuit eater, I'm dating Wyatt!

(Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events, is purely coincidental. If they weren't coincidental, all names would have been changed, and I still wouldn't have a clue if we're dating or not. )

Much the same thing happened with a long time friend. We'll call him Ken.

Ken was funny, kindly, smart, lots of money. Good looking guy. He was a work buddy of my GF at the time. GF is long gone but Ken and I remain friends. None of the big bunch of girls would date him. I asked GF why and she said "We think of Ken as being like a brother."

No, he married the first one that said yes LOL and now has a couple of kids.

In fact he's so straight he probably couldn't even spell homosexyouwell.

I was thinking of this video before you responded. From The Groove Tube.

I haven’t seen that movie in decades.
I gotta spend some time and go back and watch some of the great movies of the 70s - Putney Swope, Stranger than Paradise, Kentucky Fried movie, Eraser Head …

For me, hanging out with someone has often lead to romance. I sneak up on them.

Also... If a woman is interested she'll let you know.

Once you start DATING that's when you get to have the arguments!

I didn't make the rules that's just how it works

Once they feel comfortable with you that's when the real them comes out. Subtle criticisms, then disapproving looks, then trying to "train you up" to be the person they wanted.

"Hey Derek ... yer so sensuous.... and "sensuous" wuz up ..... get me one too !

Eraserhead? My friend actually bought the soundtrack.

A couple of marital stats in N. America I googled. 50 percent of marriages end up in separation or divorce. 74 percent of couples that are married say they are happily married. They did not mention what the definition of happily married was. Is happily married not killing each other or no infidelity? No specifics there. Not great stats for the young uns who are not married yet.

I was happily married . We made a good team and plowed through all of life's challenges together . I had a good one
Would I do it again ? Hell no .
My life is so peaceful now . I have a girlfriend, but do whatever I want , whenever I want. I don't have to ask for permission or apologize .
Women are like Barbs Scalloped potatoes

I hate to say it but Kentucky Fried Movie doesn't hold up very well anymore. Once edgy, now silly and cringy. (But a good 'cultural scale', I s'pose)
