Received a wrong number text, guess what happened next?

It's definitely not for everyone(including Sink), but piling the single Mom thing on is way uncool in my book.

I'm a father of two. When I was 24 I was in a relationship with a single mother, of course her son was a much more reasonable 2 years old. Sink is 26 and I doubt looking to inherit a crazy package deal, so it's "uncool" for me to say he's smart to walk away from a desperate random phone hookup? If so I'm fine with being uncool. It's not like they've had a couple of meaningful encounters at a coffee shop and he's freaking out because she's got a toddler.

I don't think it's weird for someone to not want to inherit kids, no matter the ages of any participants. It really complicates matters. Sure it can end well, but you know what else can? Dating someone without kids.

Also a 29 year old with a 12 year old kid means she got pregnant at 17. Just saying.

Ok, now this has officially ended. She actually responded again, still showing interest, but after talking for a little while I found out she's 29 (3 years older than me) and has 2 kids ages 12 and 7. So yeah, I don't think that we are going to meet up now. I'm not going to be interested and I don't want to lead on a single mom like that. Who knew this would end so depressingly? :(

Probably the best way it could have ended, realistically.

But hey, at least now you know who among us is paranoid and who just wants to see a trainwreck.

Can't we be both?

You can be both, Paleocon, but I'm not sure the rest of us have the necessary long-distance stamina, firearms training and cat-like reflexes.

Hey, This could spawn a whole new social media fad. Its worth Billions! (In lost productivity)

MMS roulette.

participants enter their cell numbers then you can randomly send photos to their phones.

hrmm. on second thought this sounds like a bad idea.

knowing my luck I'd get hit 3 to 4 times a day by something worse than goatse.

My wife has been claiming she's 29 for quite a while...

The kids thing is tough. It can work for some people, and not for others. Everybody has to make their own choice on that one, because only they know what the right choice is for them.

I think women are 29 until they turn 39.

Do they break the barrier of sound if they reach 30?

Happy birthd... BOOOOM! MACH 1!!! OH SH*T!!! CAPITAL EXCLAMATION!!!

This thread did not deliver.

Where's the akward meeting, the hilarious hijinx, and disastrous ending to a short relationship?

Those sounds you hear, those screams of pain and suffering are not caused by the woman getting older.... it's you and your acknowledgement of her getting older without her permission.

Sink, You're our next Boogle, all stories involving you and women will now end prematurely and depressingly :D

Any chance that the curse has passed from Boogle to Sinkwater? I guess we'll know if Boogle gets laid this weekend.

Boogle was tweeting about a success of sorts last night using lines from Duke Nukem, so maybe.

Quick. To the Booglemobile!

I don't have kids myself, but I've dated girls with kids, ranging in ages from 2 to 22 (the kids, not the girls).

There was at least one girl it didn't work out with because, once I met her kid, I realized that the mom was boring.

Is that like the more innocent version of dumping the girl for her roommate?

"Hi Jenny, can you—no, I told it's over—can you please put Joey on the phone? Thank you. Hi Joey! I got Street Fighter II, do you wanna come over? Rad, I'll see you in ten!"

Well, to be honest, Joey is totally awesome.

I don't see anything wrong with dating single moms. They're like many other women but, you know, with kids!

Actually, I think you just proved my point: Joey is totally awesome

Making jokes about kidneys is pretty f*cking old. Plus, if you've ever been around someone that needs one, it's pretty f*cked up.

Saying that, it's much funnier if you promise to steal 'em.

You know they put out!

And jokes like this are why I am alone.

Ok, well never mind then.

Is the 12-year-old a girl?

*hides Class of 2017 black book behind back*

No reason.

I came WAY too late into this thread. I read the OP and the scene rushed into my mind:

Still entertaining. Good to know your organs are safe.

For now.

Yes. Here's her picture:

The problem is that, while she was still is a state of quantum uncertainty, you texted the wrong thing and pushed into to render into her present state.

You should have texted:
"WHAT'S IN THE BOX?"

Two kids, evidently.

Hey-oh!

Actually they're 29 till their kids turn 29.

I'm of the mentality that I'd just meet a few times, keep it low key and see what happens. Because kids are involved you want to play it more cautiously, but I wouldn't pass up a potential opportunity if she at least seemed interesting.

Aw, you mean the ride is over now? That was fun.

So you told RebelFm about this? They seemed to be as encouraging about this as GWJ.

I went on a couple of dates with this girl in high school; when she found out what my hobbies were, she said I should hang out with her little brother.

...but right now my wife is sitting next to me reading The Wise Man's Fear, and earlier she was speaking intelligently about the Magic game I was playing against TheWalt. I hope that gal and her little brother are very happy together. WINNING! Duh.

They didn't quite share our pro-organ harvesting stance, though.
