I was on digging trenches in the yard for sprinklers when my then girlfriend came out onto the porch. She was kind of staring off into space.
“What’s up?”
" I just got a phone call. My mom died."
“Congratulations.”
“Thank you.”
She was a new girlfriend and I did not know anything about the history between her and her mom. But apparently my response was exactly the right one. Mom had slipped and died in her bathroom.
Each person that has ever dated me has understood that I will never react appropriately in a social situation. Not because I act out of spite but because I have zero clue as to what I’m doing.
