Old enough to be my father, part whatever

I had a few experiences in Long Beach with getting hit on and asked out by guys old enough to be my father. I wondered if I had a sign attached to my head that said "Daddy Issues." It was a rare, if ever, occurrence to be hit on by a guy my own age.

But it happened again. I was on the phone with a gentleman who I assume is old enough to at least be my father, even my grandfather, given the tone/sound of his voice. I was fighting a cold, so I had a slight smokers rasp going. But this guy decided that I had a nice voice, which could mean that I am a nice person. And he asked me "are you single because I'm single, do you want to go on a date? You sound like a nice person. You have a nice voice" all in a rush. I promptly replied that I was engaged to be married at the end of the month, but thank you for the thought. I am very happy to be engaged and getting married soon, but for the sake of vanity, why couldn't it have been someone just a wee bit closer to my own age?
