I remember telling Tex (Texas Wahine) in response to one of her blogs about a recent incident of attraction I experienced. I’m not going to go searching her blogs to find what I said, sorry..I’m feeling too lazy for that today, plus I've got to log off soon. I wrote this sometime ago and never got around to posting it.


I was sitting down on a bench in the mall last year, before Christmas, I was reading a magazine, minding my own business when someone sat beside me

I looked up into a pair of the most intense eyes. They were gorgeous and I’m not going to lie, I was a bit surprise and my interest was peaked.

It was a guy, who apologized for startling me and asked if it was ok to sit {seeing that he already had why ask now, I thought} but my response was in the affirmative and a polite smile.

I continued reading my magazine feeling him looking me over. I hate it when guys do that, makes me uncomfortable, But I laughed a little to myself because, truthfully this one was bold.

We started talking about this and that And those eyes, I found myself thinking if I wasn’t married, man this guy and those darts he was throwing……

He left after a while..whew….


I saw him again the following weekend…..he didn’t hide the fact that he had come to see me…..

Then my daughter was running around and I called out to her….he seemed surprised and asked me if she was the only one…I said no, I have three……he looked surprised.

"Wow" he said, "you look good, some people don’t take care of themselves, I can see you do….".

Now here I am thinking oh boy, he’s probably looking at me through rose-colored lenses…hehee, but I smiled and said thank you….

I’m not going to lie, I felt very flattered and very attracted to the guy….but I know I had to put a stop to it and having a feeling that he was the type who wouldn’t thread on another man’s turf, I told him, when I smiled and said thank you, that my husband thinks so too…

He was surprised again to find out that I was married. Yep, I flashed my rings at him…and just as I thought he would, he bid me farewell and I never saw him again.


I tell ya, if I wasn’t married, I definitely would have enjoyed checking him out….LOL!


Hey, that’s the truth…..I am woman hear me roar…

It was nice though to see that no matter how not too good I think I look sometimes, or how much I complain about how fat I am…there’s someone else out there who disagrees with me…besides my husband that is! Thank God for beauty being in the eyes of the beholder!LOL!

It's always a nice, little ego boost to know that someone besides your chosen finds you attractive. A little harmless flirtation never hurt anyone. Actually, I think it can improve your marriage because you start thinking "Damn, I've still got it going on" and that comes across to your hubby.

This is such a nice piece, D. It is always good to have a total stranger say such things about you. And it couldn't have happened to a more lovely person.

Isn't that the truth? I'm so glad Rose has bad vision.

Great story, and I bet he had great vision.

That musta made your day. Did you share it with your husband?

When we first got married my husband would stare down any man who looked at me. It was sweet but embarrassing.

Then after some time he didn't really care I guess unless a guy talked to me. Then he'd get all hot under the collar and talk about "doesn't anyone respect the rings?"

Then after some more time he would shrug when I told him about some guy coming on to me at the store and tell me to be careful.

Then after a really long time, he'd just look at me funny and say, "Are you sure they were flirting with you?"

Buwhahahahahha.

Ok I made the last one up, sorta. He just doesn't care now I guess.

Ya know, Tova, after awhile, it's kind of a source of pride to a guy to "be with" a woman who's being checked out by other guys. It's kind of an affirmation that, despite the years and the potbelly, we've "still got it" because they're still with us.

My wife's 31 and still gets carded when she buys me beer! How cool is THAT!

Thanks for the info Gid. I just figured he was used to me and trusts me so its not a biggie anymore.

Your wife sounds like a hottie!

I told him in an indirect way but not too much details. He still gets jealous which is really nice for my ego.

Do they all do that? My hubby does that too. I remember when we were dating he did it to a guy who danced with me, on the dance floor, he just stood between us and refused to budge. At the time we weren't even serious about each other. I'll tell you the story about that another time. I laugh hysterically now thinking about that night.

"doesn't anyone respect the rings?"


It's good to know that some still do. Unfortunately there are many that don't.

That's funny Tonya!!

I'm sure he still does, he just isn't showing it!

That's a nice thought Gid and true too.

Oh cute is that?! When that happens to me I'm on cloud 9!

Good point. But we still like them to show it.

Sounds like my Aunt.  She was never tall, and always looked young.  So she would get into movies cheap, and then go out for a beer!
