Addendum to Fear of Rejection

A friend of mine posed this alternative to shut down the unwanted gentlemen callers: Wear a ring on the finger reserved for wedding bands.

Well, I tried that when I was a waitress. It does not curb the convos you don't want to have, they just go like this:

"Wait, I know that's not a wedding ring...is it? You married?"
You: "Yes, I am."
NOW THIS IS WHERE THEY KEEP TALKING TO TRY TO ASSESS WHATEVER ADVANTAGE THEY MIGHT HAVE:

"Oh, for real...You happy? Is he treating you right?"
You: "Yep"
Them: "Oh, damn, the good ones always taken...make sure you tell him he's a lucky man."

Ummmm, my n*gga dont wanna hear that sh*t! I'm supposed to come home and say, "Boo, this dude at the store said to tell you you're a lucky man."
...what is he supposed to say in response? I know what I'd say, "Tell that whack n*gga f*ck you."

And let's address this, "Is he taking care of you?" question. I haven't had a dude yet to bankroll my weave :o( but I do KNOW that A lot of guys consider this to mean, he pays for you to get your hair done every two weeks and pays for your visits to the nail salon. They do this in place of things like, say, hmmm...being loyal, for example. If that's "Taking care of your woman," I guess I'll keep rockin with what I got.
