My first night at college, a very pretty, looked like a ceramic doll, sophomore led us newbies around the college on a tour. Because she didn't have a ring on her finger, I figured that she was fair game and I asked her out. She instantly informed me that she had a boyfriend.
I'm the type of guy that honors a commitment, so I instantly backed off. Late that night, the girl, along with an RA, knocked on the door. When I stepped out on the stoop, the girl said "I need you to understand that I have a boyfriend."
"And when you told me that earlier tonight, that's why I instantly backed away from you."
"I just need you to be clear on that."
"I got it, message received. Anything else?"
"Well, my boyfriend found out you asked me out tonight and he's very jealous."
"I'm sorry I put you in that spot."
"Well, he might come after you."
"I'm a US Marine with 15 years of martial arts instruction. I'm pretty sure I can handle myself."
"I just needed you to understand that."
"I got it. Can I go back to bed now?"

Midway through second semester, the same girl, out of the blue, approached me and said "Let's get married, today, now."
"Don't you think we should get to know each other first?"
"We can move into married students quarters. I found out today that they have a couple of vacancies."
"I'm not going to think marriage unless I know someone for at least a year."
"Well, we met six months ago."
"And I haven't seen you since."
"I usually don't sleep with someone on the first date, but I'm willing to overlook that rule."
That's when it dawned on me that someone had already corked her up and she was looking for a cash cow.
"I'm dating a couple of girls now and I might become exclusive with one of them very soon."
"Won't you reconsider?"
"No."
Dodged a bullet.
