So the guy behind the deli counter
paid me a compliment... my sister said he was flirting....

any way my number was 60 and when they called it I wasn't paying attention...
so they called 61.... I turned around and said I'm 60....
and the guy next to him said with a smile, 60?? honey you don't look a day over 42.... which to this old lady was very nice to hear... the only problem was....
I didn't get it right away I looked at him with a blank stare.. then as I was turning to leave it dawned on me... I said thank you
he said with a smile..... your welcome....
I have no idea about these things.... my girlfriend had to tell me one night
that someone was hitting on me.... I just thought he was being nice

:shrug: :shrug:
I guess I'll have to learn all this crap all over again.
so I can say politely "no thanks"

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

3. LOL
the other side of that is when men think you're coming on to them when you're only treating them like you'd treat any other (female) person.

This guy I was seeing told me that these other guys he knew said I'd ignored them when they hit on me. So I said.. oh, they were hitting one me? I thought they were just being nice. I really never assume someone is hitting on me.

I used to joke around with a couple of younger guys a lot because I was so much older than them that they knew I was joking and they just laughed too... I guess the role reversal was fun for them. They used to come to see me at work so I could tell them how pretty they were, and how I had to remind myself I was too old to chase young men. In fact, weirdly, over the last... decade? I've found I have more in common with guys, as far as taste in music, movies... doesn't mean I want to go out with someone, but it's nice to be friends and talk about the things that interest you.

oh, and I just got off the phone with my credit card co. because I wanted them to reduce my line of credit. The guy asked me why I wanted to do this because, he said, he was "very impressed by my line of credit." :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I said...oh, you know how to woo a woman...compliment her line of credit.. ooooh, baby, oh baby, yes, oh, yes. (okay, I didn't say that last part) ... but then he wanted me to state why I wanted to reduce my line of credit and I said, well, it all comes down to the fact that I hate George Bush, I suppose. (It really has to do with closing that acct and getting another one, but don't want to totally have no credit during the transition...but I'll never tell... :)
