Women Are Trouble!

I am sorry this topic has absolutely nothing to do with swimming, but that is the weirdest thing that ever happened to me and who else would I share it with but my beloved swimming community :-))) Anyways, here is what happened to me today.I went to Mall of America to do some shopping.I mean I finally set aside money to invest into something non-related to swimming.I am definitely not a shopaholic, but today I felt the urge to get into some new clothes.Well, afew hours after browsing that huge concentration of temptations I gathered quite e few purchases.To top it off I decided to get myself some cool jeans, so I ended up in one of the clothing shops.I had some trouble finding my size and I caught an eye of A GORGEOUS young lady that was working there and asked her to help me out(well, because she was so good-looking, I obviously had even more trouble finding stuff :-))).She turned out to be a sweet-heart and pretty much guided me through all my shopping experience at this little shop and I finally had 2 pair of jeans that I liked after trying out thousands of them(well, not exactly that many, but you know what I mean).So it was time for me to go, but I kinda felt reluctant to leave without having a little chat with that cutie.So I asked her name and stuff and we had a pleasant little conversation.Man, she told me to stop by some time to say hello :-)))Maybe she liked me?'Cause I surely liked her, lol:)) Anyways we finished talking, smiled to each other, wished each other good night and all those things and I headed out home thinking about nothing but that girl I just met. Ok, guess what happened when I got home?I realised that the girl totally stole my brains at the moment when we were talking, BECAUSE I LEFT THE STRORE WITH THE JEANS IN MY HANDS FORGETTING(I MEAN FORGETTING!!!!) TO PAY FOR THEM!!! OH my GOD!!!I never shoplift or anything of a kind and never ever anything like that happened to me! Should I go back there tomorrow and pay or is that going to look weird?The most amazing part is that the jeans had those magnetic devices but they obviously never got activated or whatnot... WOW, I mean WOOOOOOOOOOW.I must have really liked the girl, 'cause my brain was obviously paralized for that moment...I promised her I would stop by again :-)))She told me when she works.I was trying to be a decent guy and not jump into the whole "Can I have your number" thing right away, lol. Man, all I have to say is : women are trouble , or from the woman's view on the situation it could be: men are so stupid!!!

    Alas, we have not met. I am not a crier. At least not a public crier. Sure I get choked up at the occassional Hallmark commercial, but I cry in the privacy of my own home. I don't publically cry ... I used to never cry ...

    Originally posted by Scansy Yeah, but men don't cry as much!!!;) Some years ago there was a radio commercial for beer that went something like: Women: How come you won't take me clogging? Kathy's boyfirend Evan does. Man: Well.... Woman: And how come you won't go to romantic comedies with me. Evan goes with Kathy. Man: But... Woman: How come you don't think babies are adorable. Evan likes babies. Man: Hey Evan, buddy. Come here a second. Woman: And how come you never cry? Man: Evan does. Now. -LBJ

She also thinks men whine more. :confused: :confused: :confused: I have no clue what she's talking about?:confused: :confused: :confused:

    That's right, dangit! Just like there's no cryin' in baseball, there's no cryin' at swim meets, right girls??? :p
  • Speaking for myself, I have to admit, I am trouble :p I don't mean to be!
  • I'm trouble too. I'm always changing my mind! This is one of my favorite lines from one of my favorite songs by Billy Joel..... "She never gives in... and she never gives out.... she just CHANGES HER MIND.." That's our perrogative...right! ;)

    Beth: When I was a kid growing up in S. Florida we used to go deep-sea fishing in the Gulf Stream. One day when I was about 10-11 years old I was sitting in the fighting chair in the aft section of the boat with my feet propped up on the transom. Their was a saying painted on the transom of the boat that read, “When they don’t, they don’t...Woman, Fish, Dice & Horses….” After reading this saying ten to twenty times…I finally turned around and asked my Dad (who was standing next to the Captain), Daddy, what does that mean? The Captain LOL and said, “Son, someday you’re going to understand exactly what that means!”

    lol .. that's so funny I had the same thought, there's no crying in swimming! Unless, a bone is sticking out of place or you just won a gold medal ... I'm sure there are exceptions to be made. Men certainly whine more!
