15 Real Stories About Dating Someone Out of Your League

Source: Whisper

I try not to be the type of person who begrudges people for liking what they like, but I gotta say there’s a serious disadvantage to being one of the only dudes I know who doesn’t care about sports.

First of all, everyone assumes I do, which leaves me in awkward situations. Secondly, we build just about every metaphor around sports, and I don’t know what we’re talking about half the time.

We even compare love and dating to sports. Level of physical activity? That’s rounding the bases. Or scoring. And the person you’re playing with sure better be in your “league,” however that works.

Personally, I think leagues are overrated. But let’s see what some anonymous posters have to say about it.
