Kids say the darndest things.
I helped some kids do their homework in a neighboring school for some community service after school today. There I met Julio and Christian, two seven year olds that seem to ‘know’ a whole lot more than I do about my life.
Christian: Do you have a boyfriend?
Me: [Laughs] Nah.
Christian: LIAAAR. YOU’RE LYING. YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND.
Me: What…?
Julio: You have a boyfriend!
Me: How in the world would you know if I have a boyfriend or not…I don’t.
Julio: Uh, yes you do.
Me: No, I don’t. I think I would know.
Christian: If you’re in high school, you would have a boyfriend.
Me: Christian, that doesn’t prove anything.
Christian: YES IT DOES. If you’re in high school, everyone has a boyfriend!
Julio: Yeah! So you can’t tell us that you don’t have a boyfriend. You’re in high school. You obviously have a boyfriend.
Me: Uh. What about you, do you have a girlfriend?
Christian: NO, GIRLS ARE STINKY AND DISGUSTING. Never!
Me: So, I’m stinky and disgusting?
Julio: YES. THAT’S WHY YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND.
