Poor judgment
by Mr. New to Denver on Oct.19, 2009, under Activities, Dating & Women
Have you ever started a conversation with someone in a bar and immediately wish you could flee. I’ve had countless drunks approach me and start rambling conversations. But until the other night I can’t recall approaching someone and almost immediately regretting it.
I saw this hottie the other night. I walked over to her to say hello. We talked for a minute or two. She seemed normal. Until she mentioned that she is 21 and has a 5 month old girl. The father of her child is a 45 year old drug dealer / gangster. He was a regular at the strip club where she danced.
She had a very nice body for someone who just gave birth. Especially considering she ballooned to 198 pounds while she was pregnant. She attributed the weight loss to a steady intake of coke.
As a man I don’t truly understand all the nuances of being a women. However, I would like to assume that my powers of deductive reasoning would allow me to determine I was pregnant prior to the 4th month. The missed periods, morning sickness and weight gain would all be signs.
As I was playing Doc Phil she explained that she was probably in denial about being pregnant. Again using my deductive powers I was able to conclude that the prenatal care during those first four months probably included a lot of alcohol and Marlboro lights.
We chatted for about ten minutes. I was completely fascinated by her lack of judgment. She seemed grateful I was listening and that I didn’t flee right away. As I left I felt it was my Dr. Phil duty to offer some fatherly advice. I told her to check out the Nuva Ring but I wanted to tell her something more profound. I didn’t want to be preachy, although the way the conversation was going she would have probably been cool with a sermon.
Instead I asked a simple question that at one time was asked to me. I looked her in the eyes and said “After all this have you gotten your head out of your ass?” She chuckled and said “I hope so.”
I hope so too. In part for her kid, but in a larger part because I don’t want my tax dollars subsidizing her poor decision making.
