Singularly Honest

(It is my ten year high school reunion. I am 28 and have never had a girlfriend or even been on a date. My former classmates and I are seated at round tables and are being dismissed to the buffet line after the M.C. asks a question about our lives and someone at our table has the best answer (i.e. who has the most kids, who got married the earliest, who moved the farthest away, etc.) I’m pretty hungry at this point and most of the tables have gotten to go get food.)

M.C.: “Okay, next question… Who has been single the longest?”

Me: *quickly raises hand*

M.C.: “Wow. Your hand just shot right up. You know what? I’m not going to make you embarrass yourself; your table can go.”

Me: *happily gets food*
