Attempted wooing in Walmart

[Zellie Crescent]

Lupo you were too nice to the guy, I would have gone into full on bitch mode. When guys come up to me like that I hold nothing back, I make them want to not date me. Sometimes I have to get a little gross or crazy, but whatever works.

Then who am I to speak, I was brought in by an email from my now boyfriend saying that we were meant to be and he had put a spell on me to insure it (little did I know that he's Wiccan and he really did put a spell on me )

I hope you mean that you were "bewitched" by him, and not "be-spelled"

one means that he asked for his mate, and *poof!* there you were; the other would be him asking for "smileyeagle" specifically, and that violates THE RULE....



I met a guy, it wasn't supposed to be anything... just a little fun, i didn't even get his number before i left, but i saw him again the next weekend, and got his number this time, and now, a week after that, he's my BF.... i'd be and going but i'm too happy to care right now *sigh*

I was thinking the same thing. Although I'm not Wiccan (Druid, tyvm, but I will answer to "witch", too), you don't do things that violate free will.

He did not remove free will, he did a spell to strengthen feelings I already had (whether they be positive or negative) to remove uncertainty.

Its still bad. You dont place spells on others. It'll bite him back in the ass three times worst.


Oh wait.


BIG EDIT: HEY! That was my 1000 post! HUZZAH!

[smileyeagle1021]

Plaidman, I did kind of give him permission...

Moving back to the actual topic of the thread - The worst pick up I ever experienced was at a school dance. A little guy about 2 years younger than me (which is a lot when you're 16!) jumped in front of me, eyes squarely on my boobs and said with a little TOO much enthusiasm "You're MY KIND OF GIRL!!!"

I just turned around and walked away - I had no idea how to respond!

"Too bad that you're not any kind of man."

[chainedbarista]

lupo, it is official, you are cs' patron saint of pwnage!

gah, what are the odds that you find yourself in these situations (while funny here, not so funny there ) almost every time you go out? you truly are a chaos magnet...!

[Seshat]

Okay, that's it. I'm turning in my Y chromasome, putting a bag over my head (Both of them) and living as a eunich. I can't turn around without seeing another reason to be ashamed of being male.

*hands back the Y chromosome*

YOU have a forebrain. THEY apparently don't. It's nothing to do with the chromosome or the genitalia.

It's because THEY are reptilian throwbacks and YOU are a proper mammal of the Family Hominidae (great apes), the Genus Homo (all types of human), and the Species Homo Sapiens (us - homo sapiens sapiens - and homo sapiens idaltu).

Okay, okay, I'm being snarky. But honestly, there's a difference between a 'male' and a 'man'. You're a man. They're males.

I so did not think of the pretend boyfriend calling ploy!! I'll have to remember that next time!

Some phones come with a button on them that if you press then 10 seconds later it rings, useful for getting out of awkward situations sometimes.

[DemoDiva]

Nobody's gonna say it? Okay, I will then.

I have SO wanted to go Erin Brockovich on somebody's ass, using her schpiel with the numbers the way you did, and have NEVER had the chance, and for that, I am SUPER jealous.

Also, I met my now DH on the internet, all thanks to his persistent PMs when I was an admin of a now defunct forum about a book series we both liked. There's nothing wrong with persistence, if it's coupled with restraint, charm and civility. He won me over with his love for the Beatles and science fiction. I won him over with my pretty avatar.

I won him over with my pretty avatar.

I can see that happening. There are some pretty hot avatars in this forum.

[lupo pazzesco]

Mine's not a hot avatar. It's just honest...

Virgin Mobile in Australia has an SOS function equipped with their SIM Cards which means that if you dial a number under the table, a minute later someone will ring and get you out of those difficult situations. There's also a setup to avoid drunk dialing.

and my personal favourite...the reject number. This one can be used by anyone, and basically says something along the lines of "The person who gave you this number never wants to see you again." I wound up giving it to all the girls who work at night. (one is management and therefore unlikely to be hit on, there's only one single female and the rest of us have boyfriends or are engaged)
