I have had seriously flirting conversations with girls at bars or parties where the girl is extremely flirtatious and somehow manages to avoid mentioning she has a BF/Husband all night long.
As have I with men who hid their married status, and I find it annoying and rude, because when I find out later, I know that I have wasted my time. To me, that's inconsiderate and rude.
In fact even her friends usually won't say anything unless they are jealous that she is geting attention and they are not.
Men will be tight lipped as well.
When asked about it later, I have been told that girls will hide their taken-status because they think boys won't talk to them if they are taken which means they won't have as much fun.
You're damn right. Married men and women BOTH do this. If I see a ring, as a single person, I am not going to waste my time. So I don't like it when someone hides their lack of availability. It's tantamount to lying and I will have wasted my time taking to someone that's not available, when I could have talked to someone what WAS. Both sexes are guilty of this. But that doesn't mean that it's not ANNOYING.
They deserve the smiley where you get smacked on the head with the fish.
