girlfriend goggles

priss,

i noticed something at my date tonight. most of the time, i was having a fairly good time, but periodically i would put on the 'girlfriend goggles' - lenses which i view someone qua their suitability to serve as a girlfriend. and, boy, it wasn't pretty. all i could think was, "where does this person get off thinking they have a right to date me?"

So let's stop going on second dates with people who we're slightly insulted think they have a chance. Put on those boyfriend goggles and evaluate these guys by the strictest standards you have: the standards one has to meet to qualify as boyfriend, and not merely friend, or acquaintance, or seks buddy material. Put another way: would you be proud to introduce them to your parents?
