So That's Not "Normal?"

I meet up with a friend of mine for an afternoon drink (or five.) As it is wont to do, conversation eventually turns to our respective relationships (or lack therof.)

"You've NEVER been in a serious relationship?!?"
"God, you say that like it's a bad thing."
"When was your last date?"
(I pause briefly, trying to remember. When I realize it's probably been over a year, I stop searching my brain and decide to concoct what seems like a typical, average period of time."
"Um, like 3 weeks ago."
"THREE WEEKS?!? THAT LONG?!?"

Guess it's a good thing I didn't go with "approximately 14 months ago."
