I like how Lois knows absolutely nothing about Clark's personal life, yet she's jealously obsessing over a possible girlfriend. He seems determined not to tell her anything either way, though. From his perspective, why should she care? She's got a date with someone special, so she's unavailable. She doesn't need to know that he's unattached and dateless only to feel sorry for him.

I'm eager to see Clark's reaction when Lois comes out of her room all dolled up for her date.

"It is a remarkable dichotomy. In many ways, Clark is the most human of us all. Then...he shoots fire from the skies, and it is difficult not to think of him as a god. And how fortunate we all are that it does not occur to him." -Batman (in Superman/Batman #3 by Jeph Loeb)
