Robert said to himself, I really like Denise, and I know she is single and has no kids cause I overheard her tell her trainer Irene at the gym that she doesn’t. I really want to ask her out on a date, but I have four kids that I’m raising on my own and I don’t think she’ll like me when she finds out. I’m not sure what I should do. Denise says to herself, there’s this guy I met at the gym his name is Robert. I really like him, he always seems to know the right things to say and is so polite. I’d really like to go out with him. I just don’t think he’ll go out with me. I’m feeling guilty because I lied to my trainer Irene the other day and told her that I don’t have any kids. I actually have three children. I told Irene this out loud so Robert could hear what I said and maybe he might want to date me. I’m not sure what I should do now. I’d really like to go out with Robert. I just don’t know how I should tell him about my children. How do I go about telling my date about my children?
