On the Look

Yesterday I ate lunch with Brady in the chemistry lab while he worked.  There was one guy in there who made us laugh every five minutes.  Each girl that came in the room, the kid somehow managed to start a conversation, and ask her if she is married.  Every girl. (Except me, the wife sitting next to the married T.A.)  The best time he asked was a red head girl who walked in halfway through me being there.  The kid got up five minutes after she sat down and acted like he was getting something out of his backpack.  He said hi, asked about chemistry, and after a maximum of 3 introductory questions the kid asks, "So, I ask this to all my friends, at least here at BYU, but are you married?"  Then he goes on telling her she looks really young and he can't believe she is married, and how cool that is.  Hmmm.  

Next.

The table of girls he was sitting at.  The first girl was married also.  So he continues... "Oh, cool!  How is that?"  Poor guy.  Next girl.  Single.  "Single?  You say that like you're dating someone though, you must be dating someone."  

"Nope"

Brady said this happens every day.  Really though, this kid was genuine in his questions and his conversations.  His mind is just a little too much on marriage and finding out for everyone.  Someone's got to teach him the ring check.  Good luck kid.
