Single girls aren't evil

Last night my friends and I had an interesting conversation over dinner. All of the sudden when a girl becomes single, she's not allowed to be around married men. Married girls, yes. Single ones, no. Like that ring serves as some chastity belt or ensures their husbands can keep their pants on. One friend said after her divorce, a women even told her, "You can't talk to my husband anymore."

Really? I guess they think single girls automatically prey on any man - married or not.

My other friend told about how she had a friendly chat on Facebook with a man she had lost touch with years ago. His wife showed up at her house thinking he was having another one of his affairs. Paranoid perhaps?

We also talked about how all of the party invitations that used to come to the couple suddenly go away when you're single again. I'm probably safe there. My life was so isolated when I was married that any invitations came from my friends anyway. And they're people who know me well enough to know their husbands are safe. From me, at least.

Or maybe they believe we single girls look at it as a contest. Like we get points for every married man we conquer. By forbidding us to speak to their husbands, they're somehow knocking out all of the competition.

Trust, baby. Trust.

Love to the single girls,
