"Do You Have A Boyfriend?"

[Cognition]

I hooked up with a hot asian guy this afternoon (who I later discovered had a committed boyfriend), and while we were going at it, he asked me if I had a boyfriend. Of course I don't, so I shook my head and he looked at me in surprise and asked me why I didn't. I simply shrugged my shoulders.

I've had a number of guys ask me this question and it puzzles me. Why is it when I'm asked this question that I receive looks of bewilderment, as though they can't believe it?

Am I missing something or not seeing something these guys see?

(Btw, I did not intentionally hookup with this guy knowing he had a boyfriend.)

"Because if I did, I wouldn't have any need to hook up with you."

But for everybody else, "Do you have somebody in mind?"

Perhaps they think you're attractive and have a nice personality, so they're surprised no one has nabbed you yet.

Or....they're socially-challenged and can't think of something less rude to ask a practical stranger.

Take your pick!

But seriously, why would you ask while you're "going at it"? The only questions you should ask at that point are of the "do you mind if I do this" variety.

I like this answer! LOL.

I get asked that question to and people are often suprised that I don't have a boyfriend.....I take it as a compliment personally and just politely tell them thank you and that i'm still looking for one

That's a cool perspective. Good deal.

Geez, I wish my hookup today was single (and available) - he was quite the stud.

Innovative, what you mean "do you have a boyfriend?" You better tell em "Hell yeah I got a man named Marley and he'll cut you to the white meat if you keep kissin on me!"

LOL, oh Marley!

In my experience I think the most commom reason is giving a compliment. I've been asked "Do you have a boyfriend?.... Why Not?" "I can't believe you don't have a boyfriend" "I'm surprised no one grab you of the market yet".

Well, since yesterday's little "session" wasn't a date, I'll just take his questioning as a compliment. I appreciate it, I don't get to hear such things often.

>>>Your avatar is back! Welcome back gorgeous.

Seconded. Although I do feel like I should either be buying real estate from you, or perhaps electing you to city council. One of the two.

I feel the same way, like if the camera panned back he'd be in an office with a bookshelf on the right, American flag on the left, hands interlocked, talking about reform of some sort. That's kinda what adds to his sexiness, he looks like he just got out of Federal Law 101 class at Harvard.

LOL - You guys are such kidders.
