So I was shopping the other night and in my cart I had

1 lb ground beef
4 ramen noodles
1/2 gal of milk
big can of coffee
3- 12 oz canned vegetables
Toothpaste
Bar of soap
1 head of lettuce

This gal says to me "you're single, I can tell'

So I said "you can tell this by whats in my cart?"

"Nope, it's because you're ugly"

DAMN.grumble


rofl rofl :laughing: Happens to me ALL the time.:laughing: rofl rofl


I`ve worked in 3 grocery stores. Two of them were open 24/7. Got quite a few good laughs because of the customers that come in when the Night Stocking crew is working. They only come out at night.:wink:

But, I have had great times with the people I worked with.biggrin

i will say there are alot more good looking guys at lowes then a grocery store ..and ladies we can always act dumb and ask them a question about something at lowe's kinda hard to do that at a grocery store ..so i say go to lowe's and start asking questions :banana:


Playing dumb? Does that really work? huh

with some men it does. some of us like to feel useful. women's lib has pretty much made us men unneeded. so even if you know how to do something or could do it yourself you could act like you don't/can't if you want to talk to a guy.

then again, some guys get turned on buy girls who know as much about stuff as they do. but we can become intimidated when a girl knows more about a subject than we do. especially if it's a traditionally male subject.


. . .


yeah... I'm probably not going to be interested in the guys who prefer women to act dumb in order for them to feel useful.
it's not that we want you to act dumb, just let us feel like we're of some use other than a stand in for when the batteries go dead in your favorite toy.
and you don't have to let him know you're playing dumb.

it would be better if you genuinely needed our help for something, but if you see someone you're attracted to and you want to strike up a conversation ask him how to go about fixing something and as he explains it let your eyes glaze over like you're lost. after that you could probably ask for his help in fixing it.

I don't play dumb well, so probably not. I have no problem asking for help when I actually need it, though.

This is an old wife's tale. I met my husband at a grocery store, he was the store manager. We have been separated for 2 years, don't think I will try grocery stores again! noway

Not long ago, I once saw an attractive, fit mature woman at a local grocery. She was a stunner. I thought we had made eye contact a couple of times, then she moved on to another aisle. I didn't want to continue gawking for fear of being accused of stalking someone. I always feel a bit awkward approaching someone just out of the blue. So I placed a post on the local Craig's List, under "Missed Connections". I described the person & the encounter. I'm thinking to myself, she's not the type to read these. Don't you know she responded, but not the way I hoped she would. She said in essence, that I was describing her & she couldn't remember the exact night but, here comes the wooden stake, she didn't recall seeing any "handsome strangers". OUCH!!! That was fun. grumble sad

My question to the women. Would you be open to someone approaching you in the local shopping establishment? Just curious.

Just like anywhere else, it would depend on their approach.

I guess the "approach" is my main problem. I have been out of circulation for so long, I now feel like a middle-school, acne riddled kid at the school dance.

Imagine at a hardware store the following scenario: Woman standing looking at the hammers & apparently is trying to decide which to buy. At which point I would approach her & ask "so, do you like 16 or 24oz hammers?" Immediately her eyes glaze over & when she recovers she gives me a look that says "Just what kind of geek are you?" I do an about face & try to salvage what little dignity I have remaining.

This didn't actually happen, but easily could. Help, someone, please?
