Some things stick in your mind, moments where you realize that in the eyes of the world you're an adult, not a kid. For me, one of those moments was the first time a stranger asked if I was married. I was 20, and completely flabbergasted for about a full three seconds-- which is a long time in a conversation in small car. I was utterly unprepared for that question and my brain just about fried on the spot at the very idea.

The last one is tough. The first time I actually got asked out, or the first time I actually went out on a date? Way different numbers. *g*

I was fourteen or fifteen the first time I was asked if I was married. But, I don't think it really counts, because I was asked by eight and nine-year-olds who guessed my age at a million. (I was assistant teaching kids' summer theatre.)

3 doesn't happen often when you live in an apartment with a locked door, so I'm not sure my "not happened yet" answer applies to what would happen if people could come to my door.

And I had a boyfriend for a year before I went out on a real date (with someone who was never my boyfriend.) "Dating" is such a funky little topic because dating doesn't really relate to who you "date," ya know?

I've been asked if I was the "lady of the house" before. Usually I say yes just to save time.
