So I went to the mall this morning before work to do a little shopping (I bought some smooth rust colored Saucony sneakers) and I happened to wander into American Eagle. As soon as I entered the store I was surrounded by the two sales people that were working the floor. Usually this would bother me, but one of the sales girls was a cute red head and I couldn’t resist flirting a bit. I initiated a converstaion about retail but she continued with conversations about the beach, John Mayer, and some other random stuff. It turned out that we had quite a bit in common, so I asked her if she wanted to hang out one night. This was her reply:

“I can’t, I have boyfriend.”

I told her that I understood, tried to resume the conversation so she wouldn’t feel awkward (although I am sure I failed miserably), said goodbye and left. I have heard the “Sorry I have a boyfriend” line more times than I can count, but I have one question for all you women out there…what does having a boyfriend have to do with hanging out? Every time that I hear those six (five if you consider can’t one word) words I cringe. If a girl doesn’t want to hang out, that is fine by me, but don’t hide behind your boyfriend…I’m not asking for sex, a kiss, or even a date, I just wanted to hang out because I thought that it would be fun.
