When I worked at a restaurant we would occasionally play “America’s FAVORITE game show: DAUGHTER OR MISTRESS?”
And if your in Alabama it could be both! If your in Appalachia it’s always both!
You’re*
The irony…
Yeah, the rumors about Triplett are true.
I dont think its a state issue. I mean half of the USA voted someone as president who we openly claimed he wanted to fuck his daughter and who privately did.
So if you’re in the usa id probably get off that high horse…

At dinner my husband and i often sit silently on our phones texting each other to play ‘What’s that relationship?’
In restaurants. Not so much at home. Though i do have a friend whose husband left her for his step sister.
I’m reminded of a time I was on a business trip to visit a remote office, and I had dinner with a woman that I worked with. Both of us are married, to other people, who were not present. We must have given off the right vibes, though, because the server asked if we wanted separate checks at the end.
Or maybe they thought the date had gone REALLY badly.
I worked at an ice cream place, and me and another coworker would offer to upgrade people’s orders for free* if they let us guess if they were married, had kids, how many, etc. I have no idea why we wanted to play this game, but people were always on board, we got some laughs out of it, people got more ice cream, it was a win/win.

- Not my money, don’t care. The owners would later fire me when I threatened to report them for withholding paychecks after a freezer mishap. I got my $23.

We used to play daughter, hooker, wife.
We played a similar game. Mother, son, or lovers?
Reminds me of this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MJEAGd1bQuc
Not surprising, since Tina Fey was in both this and the scene that inspired Daughter or Mistress!

Never assume anything. “Hi, I am … and you are?”
If needed, “… and what’s your relationship with him?”
Ask robotically and pretend to make a check mark on your clipboard, tada awkwardness averted
“and you are of course his… niece?” 🤭
As a 60 year old man that dates women in their mid-30s (I want children), I feel this post-it note.
Props for the honesty
Wanting children in your 60s is selfish. Not only do you put them at much higher risk for birth defects, but you likely won’t be around for most of their life
Things you can say on the internet but probably not to their face.
true but it is also true that the older the man the more likely it is he produces children with birth defects or genetic conditions
this has been historically blamed on women and it is now coming to light that old sperm isn’t good
If you want kids at that age, the solution is simple: adopt. Adopting is just a good idea in general, though. There are already too many people. There’s no good reason to make more.
60/2 + 7 = 37. Mid 30s is cutting it
Meh, once someone is over thirty they’ve typically done enough adulting that the “half your age plus 7” metric isn’t really necessary. There isn’t a power or maturity imbalance, and I’m inclined to think that such women are capable of evaluating the pros and cons of dating me. My current best prospect is a M.D. that is 35.
Man, everyone is jumping to the conclusion there’s an age gap. Have none of you met anyone that doesn’t look their age?
As an aside, my wife and I are 14 years apart. She’s the older one. Started dating when I was 23 (she was 37, so the “rule” would have put her limit at 25.5) and married for nearly a decade now.
My partner and I are pretty regularly confused for mother and daughter, which is super weird because we’re only 7 years apart. We’re in similar life stages so we never thought about the age difference at all until someone mistook us in public. It was super awkward all around. Is 36 really that much more than 29?
“Good morning Mr. Belichick, how are you feeling today?”
Dick van dykes wife is 50 years younger right? Wild.
To be fair to DVD, that’s most other people he meets.
Haha right he almost gets a pass. Still a bit odd
Eh, she was 40 when they got married. That’s so deep into Consenting Adult territory, I don’t really care what the age gap is anymore.
I agree
He gets a pass because everyone is a lot younger than him lol
She’s Macron’s wife, not embalmed grandmother.
Funny, but also creepy.
Sounds like a mutually benefical arrangement assuming she’s with him for the money and he’s with her for her looks.
I’m 7 years older than my wife. I was 27 and she was 20 when we met, both freshly divorced too. Most definitely a rebound thing, even 40 years later. I keep waiting for her to catch up to me in age, but she’s taking her sweet time about it.
