I like to share stupid stories from when I was younger. Stories like how I used to mark that I was Hispanic because I thought Caucasian was a Caribbean native show people how unique I really am.
But the story that I'd like to share with you is THE TRUTH. Some of you who are reading this might find this story as a made up fable, but I guarantee that it is 150% true.
During my freshman year in high school, we had to take a little questionnaire on what we were looking for in a relationship partner. It was some sort of fundraiser for our high school student council and I was doing whatever it took to get out of doing my algebra homework (its overrated anyway) and ended up taking more time doing the questionnaire than I did filling out my SATs.
Fast-forward a month later when the student council was selling the results. Word started to spread that there was one name that seemed to be number one on every girls' list of best matches. Who was this macho man that everyone was talking about? The one and only, Bobby P.
Girls from every grade 9-12 had that beautiful name listed on their list. Unfortunately lists were seen torn up and left on the floor of the high school hallway along. A lot of the girls were pissed that their "high school sweetheart" didn't even make the top 10 list.
But being curious, ol' Bob, I just had to see who made my top 10 list. Maybe it was Allison Lickteig, the girl that every boy in middle and high school dreamt about. Or it could be Cathy Cottrell, the always-smiling Junior.
So after giving up my hard-earned dollar, I ripped open the results. And who was my number one? Sarah Carstens, the devil worshipping, chimney smoking, grunge band listening......thing.
Half of the girls in high school had a kind, polite boy on their lists. But to this day I believe that the survey was a hoax. I didn't get asked out by any of the other girls on my list. Of course I never saw half of them since they were in in-school suspension or detention, and I never had either one in my high school career.
Yet I don't believe the tests actually helped in my dating life nor with my friendships. Or maybe my results got mixed up with someone else's. I mean, the results said that Matt Gordon would make a great best friend for me. OH COME ON!!!!!!
Thats it for me!
Bobby P.
