Add a #6, #7, and #8 as a result of a party this past weekend.
#6 Lady from work…we smile at each other a lot. She almost always says Hi. She was at the party with her boyfriend. She worked her way over to me a couple of times and we talked. Probably blew 2 opportunities…the first of which was when she asked if I enjoyed a particular sports-related activity…I said yes, but didn’t follow-up with a suggestion that we get together some time to participate. Second blown opportunity was probably when I ran into her by the cooler of beer in the basement and she told me she was going upstairs to the (uninhabited) kitchen to make herself another drink…I didn’t follow.
#7 Shy, single girl at the party. Slowdanced with her twice, made small talk…her shyness seemed to tongue-tie me. No noticable signals.
#8 Married woman at the party, husband present. Drug me onto the dance floor for a slow dance. Commented on how good I smelled, how well I danced. Being a little more on the ball at that moment, I was able to respond with a comment about her smelling good as well, and I suggested an additional dance. On the second dance, she wanted to dance a little more intimately, pulling my left hand behind her…hmmm…heck, we were both drunk…
Now here are updates and my course of action for each of the current candidates:
#1 Patronized her establishment this weekend, and I didn’t flirt. Decided the physical attraction wasn’t there for me.
#2 Haven’t seen her since, but the next time I do, I’ll guage her vibes and maybe suggest that we go out some time.
#3 No further updates, and no plan of action.
#4 Physical attraction isn’t there for me…I’ll run into her again though, and I might be open to being buddies with her.
#5 She gave me her phone number…said that I could party with her and her husband any time.
#6 Flirted with her a little at work yesterday…will probably suggest we go out some time.
#7 I’m waiting for feedback from her friends.
#8 Nah. It’s just stuff that drunk men and women do at parties some time.
…until the next installment of 'Will Krispy find a girlfriend?",
Krispy!
Good to see you back here!
I wondered what happened to you.
Apparently, you’ve been working out and using the hair club for men…
There is nothing wrong with a woman being 20 years younger!
Look at Tony Randall, well, don’t.
Anyhoo, let us know about #'s 8, 9, and 10.
Although if some cute lady asks you if you’ve been to Area 51…
But allow me to clear up that there never has been, nor will ever be any shortage of hair…
As far as women in their early 20’s, sounds good to me, but I have to consider the fact that my 16-20 year old children hate the idea.
#9?..OK:
#9 Slim strawberry blonde (single?) woman that lives in my state always notices when I’m around on the SDMB…jokes around with me… Haven’t a clue about the chemistry…have never met in person. What shall I do?
#5 Well…I didn’t act on the first invitation, but the very next weekend, the same invitation was made again. I went to her place and partied with her and her friend, and ended up spending the night on the couch and we went to breakfast the next morning. I didn’t lay a finger on her I swear! Since then I have partied with both her and her husband. I’m not sure where this is going.
#6 Grabbed for the gusto and asked her out. She turned me down. She said that she has been with this guy for two years and that it would be cheating and that she isn’t like that. She did go on to let me know that she isn’t COMPLETELY happy with this guy though. WARNING - Impending corny anecdote I’ve been leaving a single Hershey Kiss for her to find when she arrives at work.
#7 Unchanged
#8 Unchanged
#9 Unchanged - still have not sent flowers and chocolate
#10 Just met a woman via an internet dating service. She lives nearby and she’s an author. We’ve emailed 6 times in the past 24 hours and are just getting to know one another.
“Quite intuitive there, handy, but he could just say, “So, are you single?”.”
Naw, too direct. Some lady told me once, always try to ask woman what her husband does for a living even if you aren’t interested in her, so I do. You know I have to count on lip reading her response or use an interpreter or paper & pencil. Not one woman has not liked to hear this. Some of them have wedding rings but aren’t married.
