I wasn't shown the exit, I just wasn't shown the entrance. ;)

Anyway, it's very common for people to look for people of their own religious affiliation, race, or what-have-you when sizing up someone for a relationship. That's not racism, it's just an effort to establish compatibility. The only reason I was a little surprised is that such selectiveness is less common for simple barroom hookups…

It would've been different if she was interviewing me for a job…
Enter Julian:

"It was a certain kind of job…"

Oh, I didn't know that we were engaged in sharing details of our love lives?!?
well, you were commenting on Dr Doom's rejection (who was so generous as to share the story with us), didn't occur to me that this was a one-day street… but no worries if you'd rather not share, t'is indeed rather personal a question. i was just checking for a pot/kettle dichotomy… :)
Betty, great story!

I must tell you that I'm shocked that a Jewish mother would overreact to something that didn't concern her, start screaming and butt into everybody else's business. Seems so unlike most Jewish mothers I've met.

So from now on we'll just assume from the getgo that you won't be bothering me anymore with your peculiar brand of utter foolishness. There will be no need for you to ask me for permission. It's a given.
i don't need permission to not bother you? :)
