It's been a while since my last installment in the Toasters series, but this one today will be my last.
I've enjoyed sharing my run-ins with various guys who attempted to date me but for one reason or another, didn't make it too far. Today, we'll talk about Priest.
I met Priest at a Nigerian event for a building dedication that my parent's invited me to. I arrived about 1 hour after the event started, so I missed several items in the agenda. At my mother's table was a man (Priest) that was simply dressed in a button-down shirt and jeans. He chatted me up a bit (in front of my mother, no less) and asked for my phone number after he walked me to my car, which I had no problem giving.
After a couple of conversations, he asked me out to dinner in which I obliged. At dinner, I asked the common questions that anyone would ask during early conversations with a date including what he did for a living. His response was, "You don't know?" When I responded no, he informed that he was a
CATHOLIC PRIEST
I asked him why he even was initiating conversation with me that could potentially lead to something more, his response was, "Everyone needs friends." I asked him what he meant by that and he stated that he would like to have a "secret" relationship with me. Although I was a little shocked, I let him know that I wasn't interested in having a SECRET relationship with any man, let alone a priest. I calmly ate my dinner and immediately requested to go home afterwards.
I couldn't believe that he had the AUDACITY to try and court me and he was a PRIEST! For those that aren't aware, very much like nuns, priests who have dedicated their lives to God are not allowed to have relationships of a sexual nature (meaning no marriage). Needless to say, I didn't have any more conversations with Priest.
