I got hit on by a 10-year-old.

Think that’s bad? Read this.

Meh, if it makes you feel any better, I apparently look about 15 years older than I am. One of my co-workers, who had started at the same time I did, was recently perplexed when I told him I might need an extra $35/day to rent a car, being under 25. All the time I had been working there, everyone other than my boss (who had my resume) had thought I was about 35-40, not 23.

Fast living and loose women will do that to you, I suppose.

HazelNutCoffee, be assured you definitely do not have the look of the Middle-School demographic. Maybe the kid just has good taste, but a really, really BAD sense of timing (as in, it’s off by a decade…) Or as mentioned before he just likes the reactions.

…or …y’know …maybe …he has been watching all the news reports about Debra LaFave-type incidents and he’s randomly trying to see if he can find one of those women! :eek: :eek: :eek:

(…hmm… I’m always told** I **look considerably younger than I am, but so far no co-eds are throwing themselves at me. And besides, if a gal of the under-16 set tried that with a guy, he would absolutely KNOW it means she’s wired and the NBC-News van is across the park with zoom lenses :stuck_out_tongue: )

After viewing the OP’s pic I’d say this kid needs to be given a “high five”.
Way to go kid…
Disclaimer: I no way do I condone the misogynistic treatment toward women.

:dubious:

It’s a boy. Why would you be even remotely surprised? We learn earlier than you realize. :slight_smile:

I thought that was the case, since you originally wrote:

I guess kawaiitentaclebeast thought you spent 6+ years somewhere else in between leaving the US and going to Korea, or else did less than optimally on the SAT (either reading comprehension or arithmetic) :wink:

It’s a joke, J. He’s family… and not like see-you-at-Thanksgiving, stand-around-awkwardly family, we all see each other at least once a month. So don’t worry, we’re not a bunch of intermarrying racists :slight_smile:

Indeed. I was at Safeco Field in Seattle a couple years ago to watch the Mariners and Yankees get it on. Between the two teams, there were five Japanese players on the field, and so there was a large contingent of Japanese fans in the seats.

I was gazing longingly at a pair of beautiful young Japanese women when my younger sister gave me a sharp elbow to the ribs and said disapprovingly, “They’re thirteen!” Now, as a longtime fan of the Japanese female form, I knew this wasn’t the case, and informed her, “No, Japanese women look like they’re thirteen until they’re twenty-seven.” She just rolled her eyes, but I was vindicated a moment later when the young ladies in question walked past, carrying the beers they had just purchased from a vendor :slight_smile: It was my turn to deliver an elbow jab and say, “See? See?”

I started hitting on women in their twenties and thirties when I was ten.

It took somewhere between two and three years to start paying off.

Ah. Okay. It just struck me wrong out of context. :slight_smile:

Okaaaaaay, I see now that it could have been worse. Wow.

Anyway, this incident makes for a good story. I can use it to fill awkward pauses in conversation. “So like, did I ever tell you about the time I was hit on by a 10 year old?” :slight_smile:

Again, thanks for all the compliments. My friend was telling me that I should take flattery where I can get it, but now I can tell him I don’t need to resort to sketchy 10 year old kids for that. Hee.

Yet.

runs

Many many years ago, when I was 19, I got a job soing secretarial work in a summer camp in the US.

During the last dance of the season, I was asked to dance by a 13yo who after two songs and some conversation told me it was a pity he wasn’t going to be able to introduce me to his older brother (whom he evidently thought was the Coolest Guy Ever) because his brother was sure to like me.

I still get a warm fuzzy feeling.

Well, was she hot?..

I don’t think you look 10, but you do look young. You could easily pass for a teen, for example.

Makes the time I was 17 and hit on by a 15 YO seem weak in comparison.
And you are looking absolutely lovely in that pic, by the way.

I once knew a 10yo boy who hit on his mother’s friend, who was maybe 28. She told him “We can go on a date when you turn 16.” She figured that in six years, he’d forget all about it. He didn’t. So she decided to keep her promise. They went out on a date. (No sex, unless you consider pizza and a PG-13 movie to be sex.) In the meantime, however, she’d gotten married. I don’t think her husband was terribly cool with the idea, because he was pretty insecure to begin with. I don’t think that was the reason for their divorce, though.

What’s scary is that that kid must be in his early 30s by now.

Dammit! I was plotting a similar spin on this one to focus on the kid in the OP. Who is hot, btw. If I were 10 I would have hit on that. Now I’d be much too shy.

well…

so…

how are you doin’?

:smiley:

CRAP! Foiled again!
