Yes, I am still single

While I was in England a friend called. I haven't spoken to her in about 8 months.
She left me a message asking me if I had gotten married.

So you know I had to call her and ask her where that came from.
"Oh I hadn't talked to you in so long I thought you might have gotten married."
TO WHO? She didn't have a response...that's why she's a dummie.
Did I tell her she has a 41 year old Nicaraguan boyfriend? and he has 2 kids. Good for effin her. She's 28.

It's sort of known that Europe takes a whole different position to interracial relationships than the US. I think I saw more black women other there with white men than the reverse. I even saw advertisements for furniture, restaurants, everything with interracial couples hugged up. You would never see that here.

So several people, including family, said things like "you know they like black women over there" or "you might come back with some blue eyed soul" I don't think I saw anyone that was remotely cute to me over there (read: I didn't run into Idris Elba!)

Upon my return, people keep asking me did I "meet" anyone over there. Um no..and what was I going to do with him, stuff him in my suitcase and bring him back with me? I didn't go to England to meet any men! Newsflash: I'm not desperate and I'm still single and those things can go together!
