Don’t Get Any Ideas, I’m Married

Excerpt from The Spinster's Guide to Dating

​     Why do so many men assume women are hitting on them? Talk to a guy in a grocery store and he’ll quickly refer to his wife so
there are no misunderstandings. Send a FB friend request to a high school acquaintance; suddenly a pop-up notifies you he’s married.  Talk to a guy at a party and he cuts you off;
he doesn’t want you getting all hopeful.  It’s absolutely the worst thing about being single. It’s unwarranted rejection and one
of the few times one is tempted to lie about her marital status.
