Brother, when you put that gold band on your ring finger you go from ignored to wooed instantly. No idea why that is, but had I not been a man of
character, I could have amassed a fat little black book of phone numbers immediately after tying the knot. Then again, after the first was born it
happened all over. A single man caring for a baby or a toddler in a public setting is a chick magnet. The only difference between "ring on finger"
attracted females and "Dad caring for child" attracted females seemed to be about 10, maybe 15 years of age. The flirting received from just the
wedding ring came primarily from college aged girls, whereas the flirting received from sporting offspring came from women in their mid 30s.
It was a real eye opener to me and something I'd never have expected. The wife and I will celebrate 14 years in Feb and I've been 100% faithful and
true for the whole ride, so don't get me wrong... married life, when you're married to the right person, is a real blessing.
