Oh God, I'm sitting at an internet coffee shop right now and listening to the conversation a guy in his 40's is having with a woman of about the same age. She's Eastern European (by accent) and he's a regular caucasian guy. She's eating up everything he's saying, laughing and giggling. This seems to be their first meeting (they're now talking about how many brothers and sisters each other has). Here's the things he's saying (I kid you not):
- I like laughing, I laugh a lot.
- I cry. Yes I do, but I'm tough. I'm a union guy and I have to be tough to the guys. But yes, I cry, like at the movies, you know, stuff like that. My daughter is shocked sometimes I can be so tough. But I tell her you have to be tough to guys. That's me.
- I love to give. I give and give. Can I give you a foot rub sometime?
- I just want to find someone to go on vacations with every year. I mean, never mind the money. Forget the money, just go on vacations together. That's important. Money's not important, vacations are.
- I want to start a business with my partner, who ever she is. Be with her every day.
- You're beautiful. You know the other day I was at a movie, and all these young girls. I feel awkward around them. But you look young like them (she giggles), but you're close to my age. I like that.
- You've got a house, 3 kids. You're successful. You're incredible.
- (Looking at photo) That's your sister, right? That's your daughter??? Oh my God! But you're so young looking (again, she giggles).
- I want to share, share my life.
- blah blah blah
Reminds me of the phone dating commercial I saw on TV. The one when they say, "Here's Mack. He's shy except when you talk to him about cooking". Oh sure, they might as well have said, "He's shy, except when you talk to him about vacuuming the house".
Did any of you see "Groundhog Day"? Bill Murray memorizes some French poetry and out of the blue, blurts it out while looking at her. Fuck that was funny.
