Anyone who has been around the block in the singles and dating scene these days knows all about single dating woes; so do these adorable kindergartners, apparently.
In a very clever YouTube promo for Matthew Hussey's book, 'Get the Guy,' three very cute kindergartners take viewers for a big surprise when they start talking about adult dating problems related to the school yard. It's pretty funny, because anyone who has gone to friends who are in relationships for advice while single themselves have likely heard every single line coming out of these little girls' mouths. The main plot deals with one girl who has a crush on a "more mature" second grader, Tommy. Before long, she's fretting about the friend zone, what his intentions are, and what her next move should be.
It's very funny and adorable, if not slightly oft-putting to hear these kids talk about adult dating woes.
