This is my pet peeve....when I am asked for my marital status, I have two or
three choices:
1. Married
2. Single
Occasionally there's a third category:
3. Partnered for life
This shit is probably petty but you know what? I am NOT single. But try to
put down married, especially if you're filling out an internet form, i.e.
for insurance rate comparisons or to fill out market research surveys.
I put down married and can't go anywhere because then they want my husband's
vitals. So...do I make like he's alive?
Lately I've been emailing and/or calling customer service and bitching about
it.
Like I said, I realize it's not a significant deal but it does hit my hot
button.
Ya know what? My junk mail from dating services/porn
places/wanna-find-someone-special places has quadrupled. And I'm NOT ready
for this crap, I only just lost my husband and he WAS real at one time.
Grrr...
