A Reason To Take up Knitting and Get A Dog - 06/20/07 01:02 AM
Last week I gave my phone number to the owner of a restaurant I've frequented for the past 8 or 9 years. He seemed like a nice enough guy, his wife died 2 years ago of a brain anyourism (sp?) in his arms and she was pregnant. (He told this to my friends about a year ago) I decided after a couple of phone conversations that I wasn't interested because he works all the time and I could tell I would be the one doing all the compromising.
Anywho, I put his name into my county court record finder and guess what - he's married and getting a divorce. And it's not final yet.
So he called me this evening:
Me: Do you have any other children besides your 2 daughters? (I'm giving him the rope)
He: I have a 3 year old son, but it was a mistake, someone I dated very briefly.
Me: Well, I thought your wife died 2 years ago, did you have an affair?
He: No, it was after she died.
Me: You said your son was 3 years old and that means you would've been in the "mistake" relationship 2 years before she died.
He: No, I said he was 2 years old. (still doesn't add up, does it?)
More back & forth -
Me: I need to tell you that I looked up your name on the internet and the county court records say you are going through a divorce. What's going on?
He: That was my first wife and we never did get divorced.
Me: Doesn't that mean you were a bigamist?
He: Ugh, ugh, stammer, cough, etc. Really, it wasn't my fault, trust me. (HAHAHAHA)
Me: I promise I'm NOT going to trust you. I don't want you to call me anymore and I'm not interested in going out.
There was more, but you get point of it all. Ladies, at least check into your county court records if you meet someone new. If your county doesn't have records on the internet, then go to the courthouse in person. This guy is a real freak - I'm sure whoever dates him is in for a ride.
Why am I such a weirdo magnet?
