When you are single and in the dating game here, you immediately "ring check" a cute potential date to make sure they aren't married.
And you always have this thought floating in the back of your mind when meeting someone new:
And you always have this thought floating in the back of your mind when meeting someone new:
"Could this person be who I marry??"
Honestly, it is such a weird culture.
Now that I've been married for almost 2 years and am almost graduated from BYU,
it's funny to see how people who are 'single' react to me.
{It's sad that we even divide people by singles or marrieds...
it reminds me of muggles & wizards. Nerd alert.}
One thing that I literally want to run around and SCREAM in people's faces on campus is:
"STOP CONFUSING MY KINDNESS FOR FLIRTING"
Seriously though.
You hold a door open for someone, say hello, talk to them in class,
or even more shocking...you dare SMILE at them?!
Provo-ites construe that as flirting, and if you have a ring on?
They are appalled that you even went out of your way and did anything nice because if you didn't already know...you're MARRIED and cannot treat anyone 'single' as a human being.
Ohhhhh Provo.
*defeated sigh*
