And That Was The Moment I Realized...I’m Dating An Idiot
There was the initial attraction. The eyes. The smile. It was enough to say “yes” to that first date. However, the more time spent together the more red flags kept popping up. Was he really joking when he said that?
Was she really that clueless, or just having a bad day? The dates continue until the tipping point occurs. The point where there is no longer any doubt: you’re dating an idiot.
Here are some stories of people left dumbfounded by the dull-witted, dense, and dim of the dating world.
1. Are You for Real?
My boyfriend and I were driving around this weird part of Las Vegas. Mesmerized by the lights, casinos, and Elvis impersonators, I said, "This is surreal." He said, "I know. It's so real." Startled and a bit curious, I repeated, "Surreal."
He repeated, "So. Real." Exact opposite.
2. A Bit Shallow
I went on a date with a girl and she talked about a quiz she got in one of her classes that day. It was a bunch of common knowledge trivia. One question was to name an ocean that borders the US. She said "Myrtle Beach."
There were 50 questions like this. She got only one right. We're in college. She's going to be a teacher.
3. No Momma’s Boy
I dated a guy for about a month until I found out he didn't realize women's breasts made actual milk to feed their babies. He thought "breastfeeding" was just a way to hold a baby while giving it a bottle. I told him he was an idiot.
He said with a disgusted sneer, "I didn't know that because I have never known any woman, who had or would breastfeed their child.”
I told him I had breastfed my son…he called me a pervert.
4. A Bumpy Ride
The first time I thought my boyfriend was an idiot is when he told my parents he was a “meatatarian” because he eats everything.
The second time was when he told me that the bumps on the side of the highway are there so that blind drivers know when they are running off the road. Ah, high school boyfriends. He was hot, though.
