She Says She Doesn't Date Customers

“Newgirl, was that when Clinton was visiting Billings?”

“Twigeater, something like that. But any man worth his spit will know when to back down, as demonstrated in what happened to Newgirl. What a jerk that guy was! It can be difficult to know when enough is enough sometimes, but a little common sense will usually dictate when it's time to fish in other waters. Newgirl's right, a little class goes a loooooooong way. Too often that is forgotten. Acting like a pr!ck always gets you nowhere.”

“LOL @ Aero! No, that was actually in Butte. That guy was one of the biggest jerk-offs I've ever had the displeasure of turning down. It still makes me mad to think of how he tried to make it look like I had pursued him, even though he was married.”

“Obi, watch the movie "Amelie"

Has anyone seen this flick? Most excellent!”

“Newgirl, there's a guy in our office like that; he's always on the prowl. If he wore a plaid, polyester suit with an open collar and carried one of those little breath freshener cannisters, he'd have the whole package. The amazing thing is that he actually get's some women to go out with him! At one point he was divorced and living with a woman and having a fling with the girl across the street from their apartment. He'd go out for a "walk" at night, the other woman would pick him up in her car around the block and he'd hide in the back seat. Then she'd sneak him out once they got back to her garage!”

“I think I remember reading that 70% of married men take off their wedding rings when they go out friends and without their wives.”

“mine's tattooed on.”

“Wow. Guess I'm in the 30% club...lol...”

“How blond would a woman have to be not to notice a bright band of white flesh around a man's ring finger?”

“Oh man, Aero, you've got to be kidding me. The other girl actually knew about the woman he was living w/ and still went through w/ all the riga-ma-row?! Dumb. Some women are so dumb. It's one thing if you don't know and get burned. It's a whole other story if you do it knowing the whole truth and nothing but. That just screams desperation. "You're such a cool guy, that you can do me and all the women on the block too, Johnny! I just looooove you." Sick.”

“Blonde doesn't have anything to do with it, plausible deniability does...”

“Is that the same thing as turning a blind eye ...?”

“Why's he gotta be Johnny? Why can't he be Tommy or Philburt or something?”

“Essentially...”

“I wave my ring around so I get left alone. ;-)





j/k of course. I was so bad at picking up women that I had to meet my wife in the dorms.”

“Sorry, Indiana. Let's call him Rupert.”

“It's a miracle that I'm married. Really.”

“I should also add that I am also part of the 30% club. Believe it or not.”

“We believe you bit.”

“Thanks for that vote of confidence, Violin. I have a really hard time convincing people of that.

My wife is a saint. Or should be, anyway. Where the heck do I file those canonization papers?”

“I haven’t worn my ring in several years.
Seems I’m allergic to it.

Heh heh.”

“I wasn't sure if I could get mine off, just checked, I can. LOL”

“Really Santartex? Well if I were that waitress I would expect the guy to quit bugging me, not send me flowers (that would make me gag anyway lol, but I'm not the cards and flowers type). Like newgirl I've got a few stories about pesky men - including some dolt leaving flowers on my car - NOT appreciated one bit, believe me.
BUT - I don't like to be chased (I guess some women do) so to me no means no.”

“I met my wife while lending moral support to a recently seperated buddy. We were at a bar and I let him take the lead on choosing which of the two women at the next table he would ask to dance. I like to tell people my wife was leftovers LOL. I can't understand why she doesn't like that comment.”

“Mine comes off very easily. I rarely remove unless I absolutely have to.

When I was newly married, I used to take it off to shower in the morning. One morning, I forgot to put it back on, and one of the ladies at work kidded me about having already stopped wearing my wedding ring. After that, I just left it on all the time. I take it off if I'm changing the oil in a car, and that's about the only time.”

“My wedding ring that is...lol....”

“A friend of mine and his wife both have rings that were actually several rings that fit together like a puzzle. He was us showing his and then couldn't get it back together. Man was he sweating!”

“His wedding ring that is...lol....”

“Indiana I saw Amelie...that was the most excellent movie!!”

“I haven't worn my ring or my watch for approx. 20 yrs. I had a job where wearing them could cause you to lose a finger or a hand. It got to the point I never even wore them to work and took them off and put them back on afterwards.
Even after leaving that job it just bothered me to have my ring or watch on.

If you do it this way you don't have that white flesh section on your finger and no one knows.”

“Don't give up, Obi! She probably gets hit on all the time by customers. I used to waitress and believe me, I know.

Be creative in your gestures, but don't be too pushy or she'll be skeert!

I once had a guy write a poem for me on the check...of course, I received incessant riddling about this for many weeks after, from the entire kitchen staff. Don't do that! The guy was cute and the gesture sweet, but I was tortured afterward!

A small vase of flowers would be sweet...maybe try leaving it on the table without saying a word. She won't know what to think, but will wonder about it (and you!) after you've gone.

Good luck! :o)”

“She wouldn't much like you telling people that you met her in a bar, either. You should reinvent the past, and tell people that you met her in a train wreck or at a gear store liquidation sale. Or add some drama to the story and say that just as your friend was going to choose your wife, the other girl turned and winked at him.”

“OOppps that was for Hyway.”

“Changing the oil is the only ring-removal time for me, too. Feel sorry for those who feel the need to take it off when going out with the guys. No desire for me to do that - too happy!

BTW, my gay friends get a kick out of a couple of stories I have of gay guys trying to flirt w/me, and me having to make casual comments about my WIFE - pretty funny! Hmmm, funny thing - I don't really have any stories about women trying to pick me up....”

“Big Foot hit on AmyG?”

“Lindy, funny you should say that because it is almost exactly like it happened. My friend was telling me he liked my soon-to-be wife's hair, when the other lady looked over at our table and casually smiled at him. Of course, his being without sex since god knew how long, he took this as a "come-do-me" look and forgot all about my wife's hair.

And I do tell people that this bar gave dance lessons early on before switching to a live band. My wife and a few of her friends would go for the lessons then leave before the hound dogs came in. I, being a hound dog, used to go there after the band cranked up chasing recently seperated women anxious to take out their sexual frustrations on anything breathing that wasn't their ex-husband. (plenty of them it seems and a fresh new supply every few weeks. I know, I was shallow back then) Anyway, I was getting tired of that scene and we happened to go early that night. That's why my wife and I had been going to the same bar for months without ever running into each other. And if I had been in my hound dog persona she wouldn't have had looked twice at me.”

“LOL @ fiddle dude!

Nope, had I, she`d be mine and poor dare would be grasping at thin air;)”

“I missed that.

Wait till Svetlina and Dare hear!”

“Obi,
Lick your eye brows. She'll change her tune real fast.”

“I should add that I don't know anything about anything lol, and some (including my family) say if you want to know what I want, think whatever would be the normal thing to do and do the opposite. =}”

“Yeah, the flower on the car deal should probably be reserved for when there is CONFIRMED interest. :-)”

“Yeah, I agree w/ Saa . . .screw it . . . Artex. I would be bizarred out if some customer that kept flirting w/ me at work, also knew which vehicle was mine. Skeery.”

“The way to fix that, newgie, is to leave your last kill in the backseat.

That oughta send the message reeeeeal subtle-like...”

“Yeah, that might make a guy back-off a little, Bit! LOL!”

“BTW did you try the cheesecake recipe?”

“TT True confessions thread!”

“Noooo! I totally spaced it out. I went home and packed and then we left early in the morning. When we got to Denver it was enough just to survive the freakin' airport. Thanks. I'll look it up and use it sometime.

(You know where I went while I was there . . . that's right . . . The Cheesecake Factory. Yum city.)”

“lol...ok...skully did give it a try so my labors weren't for naught. She said it was good, so you know I didn't put a fake recipe up there for fun, lol...


I bet that place was reeeeal yummy...”

“Yummy isn't really the best word. It was disgusting how much lovely cheesecake they had. I was in paradise!”

“I have a recipe for a really good Amaretto cheesecake too. Very rich and tasty. And somewhere, a mint chocolate cheesecake I think I've made once.

Now you know why my wife married me, lol...”
