A weird thing happened to me tonight

[seaglass]

12. That is very weird. I am usually one to be totally clueless when a guy says something suggestive to

me, not knowing what he wants or why he would do it. About 10 years ago I was at our town's library book sale and this young guy came over to me and said I just want you to know that I think you have a beautiful body. That's all. I just kind of looked at him and moved on - had no idea why he would say something like that to me - he didn't pursue me or anything and seriously who tries to pick someone up at a library book sale on a Saturday afternoon.

Hmmm still don't know why he said it, it didn't intimidate me, I didn't leave. I'm guessing it was his way of complimenting me and probably he was lucky that I didn't feel unsafe, maybe I should have said something to him so he would know not to make a habit of blurting that kind of thing to an unknown woman. I told my husband when I got home and he didn't think it was that big of a deal. Probably everyone takes these kinds of statements in different ways and I imagine a lot has to do with how safe one feels.
