I get flirted with at work about once a week, which is a really weird feeling experience for me, since I have zero interest in guys, and I have my honey at home. But they don't seem to care, even if I mention my partner. Now....it becomes a stupid challenge.
One customer found out it was my birthday, so he says "Oh, what the hell", then plants a surprise kiss on me. UGGG! CHOKE...SPUTTER!
My girlfriend laughed nervously, and thought it was creepy, but thought it was a little funny he unknowingly chose a lesbian. Hehheh....he found out what hairspray tastes like, 'cause I spun my head around like Linda Blair, and all he got to kiss was the back of my head.
Renate:
".....I'm not even sure that I like men. How else am I to find out?"
If it even SOUNDS like an uckie thing.......then you know. I knew before that happened, and had it grossly reinforced by reality.
It seems like most of the guys that flirt with me are much, much younger than me, although I might look a year or two younger than my 58 years.
I had a guy that worked at the grocery store ask me out to his high school reunion last summer, politely said no.
Now, when he sees Marcy and I together shopping, he tries not to make eye contact.
Once in a while, I have a woman express interest in me, maybe a coffee later?
Been hit on in bookstores by women....never men.
I've been married, happy, and committed for so long, it's the kind of thing that always surprises me. I guess after a lifetime of not being in the female social role, it never occurred to me how often men randomly ask women out, who they know absolutely nothing about. It never happened when I looked like a guy.....except when once in a restroom, I politely deflected the attention of a gay guy, who was very, very drunk.
So....I'm a little perplexed sometimes, but careful of the people around me.
Last week's creepy thing.....sitting in the mall food court having lunch alone, and having a guy the age of my son staring and staring, then smiling and nodding his head. I gave him the lesbian sign, and told him he was barking up the wrong tree. It took him about 2o seconds to figure it out, then got up in disgust.
