I'm sure he thought it was...
When my fiance first met me, we were very similar in terms of personality, but in terms of politics, physical looks, etc we were total opposites. He's 6'2", I'm 4'11", he's very well built and a little chubby, I'm tiny and curvy, I was a left-leaning veggie from a lower income home and he was actively right wing and from a rather well off very middle class home. He spent most of our first meeting making fun of me and trying to crush my hand (I told him it wouldn't work, it's like they're made of rubber, but he wouldn't listen!).

Three days later he asked me out

I said no, as I already had a boyfriend

One week later we met again at a friend's house

Halfway through the evening he takes me aside and says:

"Uh, I was talking to Joel from school, telling him how I'd met you last week and he said 'Oh, Hampster, you mean the test-tube baby with the lesbian mother?'. Is there something you should be telling me?"

"Um, yes, yes there is..."

I'm sure after that he thought it was a very inappropriate crush. Didn't make any diffrence though, although I have made his life far more 'interesting' than it would otherwise have been.

One day I'm going to kill Joel...
