I do understand though, H2 and H3 had the same name, I was asked out by a guy recently with the same name. I told the guy sorry you have the same name as two of my exes and it would be hard. He said I have a middle name. But I couldn't date him.
Haha Vanilla - I'm facing a bit of a similar dilemma.
Before I dated Mr. Tall Dark and Handsome (my now-ex BF of 4 years) I briefly dated another guy, who I am now casually seeing again. The first (and present) guy is named Marcus and is tall, African-American, and has a shaved head. The ex-BF is named Mark and is: tall, African-American and has a shaved head!
I'm teaching at a professional conference next month and that means a few days of "free" lodging at a nice resort. I took my ex BF Mark to a couple of these events. I don't have anyone to bring with me this time and though about inviting Marcus, the guy I'm casually seeing, as it's just a short drive from where we live.
But I just can't see me showing up with another tall bald black man with a virtually identical name! I'm sure the people running the event would mistake him for my exBF, or they might think I have some weird fetish! Neither option is appealing. It just sounds too awkward.
