Funny Moment of the Day

Setting: Checkout desk at the library
Me: I have a really random question...
Girl: (nods)
Me: (smiling nervously) Are you dating anyone?
Girl: (smiling back) Yes.
Me: (drop shoulders in disappointment) Ok, that's all. (smiling sheepishly)
Girl: (still smiling, looks like she feels a little bit of sympathy) I'll see you around.
Me: (smiling and chuckling) Yeah, have a good day.
Girl: (chuckles back)
I'm glad I did it. I was so nervous beforehand.

(And yes, I do know her name, I just don't want to put it here.)

  1. I had one of those today too, but our conversation occurred via a note and a pair of texts.

    But I'm glad I did it too.

  2. If you wanted to date her you should take a line from Cary Grant when he saw a beautiful lady out on the street...

    Cary: "Are you married?"
    Beautiful lady: "No, engaged."
    Cary: "Great, it's not too late!"

    Later in the movie they got married (I think).

  3. Way to go! You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

  4. I am all about whoever posted the second comment. Be confident about it and say..."hey well I don't see a ring on your finger, so if things don't work out you know where I will be and I obviously know where you will be." Girls are suckers for confident, cute, smart guys like yourself Matt!
