While I was working yeasterday evening, a gentleman came up to me and started chatting withme. He has done it a couple of times since I started my job, so I didn't really think a lot about it. he asked me questions like, where did I like to go, what did I like to do, he teased me a bit, asked how I like Charleston and so on. it was a pleasent conversation from a native to a newcomer. I didn't think to much of it until later when talking to my daughter and I mention it to her. She was very quiet, and I looked up at her to find her staring at me incredilusiously.
"mom," she said flatly. "he was coming on to you, he was most certainly flirting, couldn't you tell?"
Well, actually no.
As my daughter walked away, shaking her head sadly at her not with mom, I am sure wondering how on earth I had enough sense to get married and reproduce. I pondered the whole issue.
How could I not realize? Do we get naive in our old age? I re-enacted the conversation, I really couldn't put a finger on how I would have picked up on it except..he did smile a lot and he was VERY interested in what I did after work.
hmmm, as they say busted.
Next time I will know. In the years since I have dated I am wondering if the man-women relationship has changed a lot.
I noticed when my daughter is "dating" it usually means, he comes over and they watch tv,or a movie and they talk. He never took her out to dinner or the likes...
Going out to dinner is Taboo?
I like old fashioned going out to dinner, walking on the beach, having long conversations about well stuff..
I have to wonder if I am ready to enter the dating market. Well if I can't tell i f I am being picked up...
I think have a problem...
