We have the best conversations in the car sometimes...

Jake: How old to I have to be to start dating? (out of the blue and way too scary to even think about)
me: about 35
Jason: after you're married

silence

Jason: oh, that didn't come out right.
me: ya, think?

Leave it to the hubbie to once again confuse "dating" with "doing it". When will the men learn, they are not one in the same!

I'd prefer to think this was the faux pas in his response...not "hey son, once you are married, you have to be at least 35 to ask you hot little receptionist out for drinks, if you do it sooner, your wife might get angry. 35, she's more likely to be sleep deprived from her heavy plate of worries to notice you are steppin' out!".

Yep...gotta be he's confused s$X with dating. To which the correct answer remains "old enough for me not to freak out at the thought of you doing IT on your date".

which would be 35 for me.....and that's exactly what he was confusing it with...martha you would have laughed so hard if you saw his face when he realized what he said...

I hope you got some milage out of it and gave him a shocked and horrified look while clutching your heart!
