I’m so tired I seriously doubt I could come up with anything remotely witty, but this needs to be said.
I managed to learn a while back and learned again today that I am attractive, and contrary to what I use to believe, I do not scare away the unassuming male with my physical disability. It used to be a lovely excuse, but woe is me, I actually scare them away because of my sarcasm and as my father would say, feminism is just not appealing (not true). I also tend to be painfully shy. This of course does not mean that you should do the following if you are of the opposite sex:
Sit across from me on the public bus and oogle at me with your 70’s teacher hairstyle that reminds me of my father when he was in college.
Drop a folded note in my basket with the words "Hey Beautiful," as you mischieviously grin and get off the bus.
Expect me to go out on a date with you after your note pronounces you to be a Bible lovin’ student with a minor in stupidity if you really think I’m going to accept a date with someone who saw me on the bus and didn’t speak a word. As if telling me I have a nice smile is going to make me swoon in my seat, or figuratively speaking, at your feet, make me say yes through small pants. What a lucky day this is for me. I get a date.
I’d rather die a nun.
I’ll give a guy a chance if he tries to get to know me first, but not like this. So he’s shy. Sure, not shy enough to write a note and walk away with that ridiculous look on his face.
The "Hey Beautiful," was a nice touch though, even if it was a bit freaky.
Why can’t I attract the nice guys for once? Just once? Ok, so I’m an attractive woman, but I’d like to draw my counterpart to me and not the opposite, and I would like for the weird ones to stay away. Please.
