Not Sure How to Take This

During a minor quarrel this morning, my one roommate says to the other (they are a couple) something to the effect of: "No wonder Reggie's single, you American girls are crazy!" (he's from Muritania.)

Ouch.

I'm sure he didn't MEAN it as an insult (to me at least) but it sure did sting like one. It's not like I'm single on purpose!

It's not you, Reggie. I'd totally do you, and so would lot's of chicks. I know, I hear about it all the time.

Well, not really. But, I imagine if I knew the same people you do and lived anywhere nearby, all kinds of chicks would be up your grill.

Well there's a whole slew of people here in DC that would beg to differ, starting with my roommate for one.

Abby do you remember Sidi from Visions? HE'S from Muritania.

Where the heck is Muratania?

Also, being single (by choice) is the best.

Mauritania. It's on the Atlantic coast of North Africa. A west end country in North Africa a place where in a west end town, in a west end town, in a dead end world the east end boys and west end girls, uh, meet, I guess.

I'd take it as a compliment--an underlying premise is that you're only single by choice, right?

(not that that's true, but that's the way he sees it.)

upon re-reading this post, I would say that it is not an insult towards you AT ALL, but simply one directed at american girls. Like - no wonder reggie is single, all the girls here are too damn crazy and reggie is a smart and better man than to be dating crazy american girls...

That's how I interpret it.

sounds totally like a compliment... what crystal said

reggie [email] said at 8:09 PM 05-21-2006:
I guess y'all are right, and I'm sure it wasn't intentionally insulting but it does sting a bit. I'm totally willing to take on the craziness of y'all ladies.

according to your posts you get some serious action...? girl like bumpin' uglies but not having a relationship with you? i'm confused...

[Reply To this] [#226794]

reggie [email] said at 8:01 AM 05-22-2006:
Serious action? Nah, at least I don't think so.

That said -- and this could be a whole other post -- I'm sure I'm not the only person, boy or gal, who does this but there are times where you meet someone and you know right off the bat whether or not:

A) you'd like to date that person
B) you'd ONLY sleep with that person
C) both
D) neither (but in a "let's just be friends" kinda way not in a "you're too ugly" kinda way)

Now that I think about it I will make it a post.

I would say in most cases you know which of those catagories someone falls into pretty much after one conversation.
