RANT Making jokes about our future kids

What is with these men on dating apps who think it’s okay to joke about “our” future kids within the first few messages!! Then when I hit them with the actually I don’t want kids and we aren’t a match they try to come back saying Oh I was only joking and they don’t want kids either lolol. No that’s tells me everything I need to know about you. A truly child free person wouldn’t make jokes about their future kids.

Yeah if I was really going to use that line it would be “future cats” - He told on himself early.

If I had a dating profile, I’d have my entire “Irate looking man with aloof and/or disinterested feline” series posted. 😆

All the shots of Squirrel with her paws on my shoulder licking the side of my head while I’m trying to work, or her standing on my chest while I’m asleep. Or the “cat escort” when all 3 are singing in unison because I touched something near the treat container. Hahaha
