When Quinn got home from school yesterday, I asked him how his day was. I can't remember exactly what he said but he had a frustrating day. I asked him it was such a bad day & he said that "50 girls asked me out". (There is a 7th grade social coming up at the end of this month) I asked him why & he said that the girls were all playing some game. I couldn't catch exactly how they played it (let alone, when they played it since they do not have recess) but I recall he said something about they would slap each other on the arm. Then whoever lost would have to ask a boy out.
Quinn is in the 7th grade, but he still doesn't have too much interest in girls. I think the reason is because they bother him so much. They get our phone number from his friends & call him to ask asinine questions. For example, when the school mailed out class assignments, he must have received at least 10 calls that week from girls asking what class he was in. 4 calls were in one day.
Anyway...have you gals ever heard of any 'game' like this???

Sorry haven't heard of that particular game and I asked my boys about it as well. Quinn must be a looker because my younger brother sure was and I remember the first year he started middle school the phone never stopped ringing. He loved all girls so of course it was the highlight of his experience with middle school. I swear that at least 4 or 5 girls would call each night. It was crazy. Matthew is just starting to think some girls are "okay" but not enough to be interested in them. He'll be in middle school next year and I already know we're in for non stop calling. He's not only handsome but very thoughtful, sweet, shy and quiet. I'm thinking it might be a good idea to get him a separate line...LOL! Just kidding!

Never heard of that. But it sounds like some kind of a dare game. I would just tell him to ignore them although if they start calling I'd be saying he's not available to talk.
