I found it so funny that women at my job think because I never talk about women that I don't have one. I have a mother but I don't talk about her either-lol


Then my female coworker actually told me that SPORTS is my main girlfriend and the INTERNET is my girlfriend on the side-lol

That actually made me laugh a little but she can't assume I don't have women in my place.

You need to develop more conversational skills. When was the last time you read a BOOK not about SPORTS or watched a tv program NOT about sports? Do you follow current events? Do you have anything of merit to contribute apart from sports to a conversation?

If I talked about 'sewing' all day, I'd be one dimensional, too.

The guys know I don't have one. So they usually don't ask. Once in awhile they do and get the same answer, not yet. Do you remember that scene in Die Hard 1 when Bruce is crawling through that duct work and says "come out to the Cals, we'll get together, have a few laughs"?LOL....... Thinking of a beautiful women helps you get through with crawling through a crawlspace or some other nasty task. Rugged

You didn't answer the question.
What are you doing to make yourself more interesting? Do you have any hobbies a girl might find interesting? Do you actually tell these people at work you troll the web for women??

What on earth would make her think that?

At least she didn't tell you that the telephone is your nemesis.
