People say the stupidest things sometimes

I was just talking to a friend of mine who's in her mid 20s.  She's dated quite a bit, and all kinds of guys.  She is a cute, sweet, smart, funny gal who has her head on straight and it just doesn't make sense that some amazing guy hasn't snatched her up yet.  She usually would let people set her up on dates and stuff, but has recently confessed she's gonna start being a little more picky from here on out. 

We started talking about the guys who have a hard time committing, others who are too eager to commit, the mystery guys who disappear just when things seem to be going great, the cowards who lead us on and suddenly never call again leaving us wondering if he was attacked by flying monkeys or something, there's the creeps who leave messages that include the latest weather report, and then....every now and then, a guy who takes some responsibility, actually CALLS to ask out on a date, AND communicates about his feelings.  Wow.  Refreshing!  And rare.

Well, just when we thought we'd heard all the excuses in the book, this one seemingly nice guy said what is possibly the most absurd of them all.....

"I feel like we don't really click.  I have a hard time relating to your culture."

(He even specified she might be better off with a guy who knows Spanish, how thoughtful!)

HA HA HAAAA! 
Wait a second.
 
WHAT?!?!
Seriously?!

Ok, you have to understand that my friend has lived here almost her entire life.  Most people have a hard time believing she wasn't born here.

His comment caught her off guard, but it took a full 24 hours for this absolutely ridiculous comment to sink in.  She asked some friends what they thought and one guy was like: "Is he retarded?  Latins are hot and good cooks!" another said, "That's just BS sister."

{Sigh}

 It's really sad how incompetent people can be.  Geez. 

I mean, Hello!  Pretty sure EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON THE PLANET HAS CULTURE! Duh.

Oh well.  I guess it takes a really lame guy to come up with that lame of an excuse.
Poor dude.
