I went out with a cute gentleman the other night and as we're conversing, I noticed that he kept bringing up his "friend". "My FRIEND and I are looking to start our own company. "That's funny because that's what my FRIEND tells me." "I usually meet my FRIEND Wednesday nights after Boot Camp." And then....my FRIEND became Robyn. Robyn this and Robyn that. He has a work wife. (My friend KCos has a work husband so I kind of stole this from her but am giving her props for the usage) But I often think that men who are that close to women (one woman) have to like them. Don't they? Now, supposedly she's engaged or getting engaged so she's probably not interested in him but who knows. But I'll bet you anything that this fella is looking for someone (and probably won't stop until he finds her) just like his dear old friend Robyn. He feels comfortable with her. In his eyes she can probably do no wrong. She makes him laugh. She's.....ROBYN.
How can I or any girl compete with that?
I usually date guys that have other guys as their besties. I've been told by the guys that I date that they prefer that I am not as close with men as I am with women. I have a few close guy friends...friends that I cherish and would never "go there" with but my best friends are women. And I don't have one guy bestie that rules my universe so I'm curious about this.
Not sure if I'll see this guy again (hope I will but you never know) but if I do I will definitely be on heightened awareness every time R is mentioned.
DATE ME!

Yeah, you know, it's not the fact that he has a work wife, hell - my real life husband has a work wife. It's the fact that he can't stop talking about ROBYN that would scare me.
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of really close guy friends, but they gay.
So...
