Why are people stupid?

I have a friend who recently left her husband.  She's been seeing two guys - neither know about the other (one lives away from here, the other is local).  Anyway, local  guy took her and HIS daughter out to dinner this weekend.  And when I said "That sounds serious" she said "No, it's not.  I'm sure {daughter} doesn't remember me when I'm gone."  The kid is 2, not 6 months old.  I'm sure she DOES remember her.  I'm also sure that local guy wouldn't have introduced him if he thought they weren't serious.

Re: Why are people stupid?

  • Yeah I agree thats not a great idea. I think it's awful when kids are involved in these divorced situations and being exposed to all of these people. I agree that you should only introduce someone to your child if you are very serious. A two year definately remembers things.
  • Yeah most people do not introduce their kids to casual f#uck buddies but wait until they are sure this person may be in their lives a little bit longer.  It's not good for the kid to get to meet random people all the time.  I hope your friend realizes that there is more to the relationship now, or that she needs to let the guy know that her feelings/understanding of the relationship  may not be as surious as his.

  • YIKES! That poor little girl is going to be so confused. And I agree if he brought his daughter he probably thinks it's serious!

  • Hm.  She just told me that she gave him a key to her place.  And I said "Are you SURE this isn't serious?  This sounds very serious to me."  She said "No, it's casual." I asked if he knew that and she said "We've never discussed it being more."  I then said "Don't you think giving him a key might give him the wrong idea?"  All she said to that was "Oh..." 

    Yeah...people amaze me.

     I'm not saying this will happen, but can you imagine if local guy decides to surprise her while out of town guy is visiting?

    To be perfectly honest, I hope it does happen.  She's playing with fire.
