This happened about 25 years back while I was in the RAF...I was visiting a local nightspot, and was getting fed up of being turned down by the locals girls then they heard I was in the Forces...So I gave it some thought and decided the next girl who asked "what do you do for a living?" I was going to throw her a line...
Later that night I starting chatting to this gorgeous girl...and bang out came the question I had been waiting for...to which I gave my practised reply
"Oh, I'm an underwater 'Yak' farmer visiting from South Africa!!!"
"Wow, thats incredible" she said..and I was in...what a result...Grreatttttt.
Things went from strenght to strenght...and I was duly invited to Sunday Lunch 'To meet the family'...I arrive in good time, I'm greeted at the front door by the young lady..."come in quick" she says, we have just sat down at the table.
She enters the Dinning Room and says..."Mum, Dad...this is Steve...he an underwater 'Yak' farmer from South Africa"...as I turn the corner, I looked straight into the eyes of my then Squadron Leader...HORROR!!!!!
I cant describe just how I felt...but bless him, he played along and didn't give me in.
but during the meal he made my life a utter nightmare..with the questions he asked about Yak farming in South Africa...hehe
As you can imagine, he never became my Father in Law and I ended it with is daughter very soon after the lunch....as I needed to get back to my Farm!!!
I sing jazz and my boyfriend is a bass player.. I saw him on a gig, thought he was fabulous (and gorgeous!) so booked him to play on one of mine.
When introducing the band, I said "..I saw Simon play here recently and thought 'if I can't be that double bass then, having him on my gig is the next best thing', so please welcome..".
10 months later, things couldn't be better!
He told me if I hadn't said that he would never have asked me out.. he's quite shy.. so, a success!
Can't thank everybody enough, you've all sent in some funny and romantic stories. (More always welcome, research will be going on for quite a while)
If I can move on the thread a little, what do people think of body language? Any hints or tips? Obvious signs, when the person your talking to likes or dislikes you? (This type of thing will definately be explored in our rehearsals) What do magazines think about body language, what have you read? Or is it a load of rubbish?!
I was in a club a few years ago.
I walked up the bar and rested my hands on the bar on front of me.
Over walks this gimp who had been eyeing me up all night and put his hand straight on top of mine. I pulled away and in a very cocky manner said "don't touch what you can't afford!" He then replied in a very loud voice " Why how much do you charge darlin?" really brought me down to earth with a bump!
Some years ago there a Sunday paper supplement raan an article suggesting some chat-up lines. A lot of them were run of the mill but one stayed in my memory as slightly humourous. The male approaches a female (or vice versa) introduces himself as an alien from another planet recently arrived and asks if he can place his fingertips against the female's fingertips. He explains to her that this is how they have sex on his planet and asks if she will show how it is done on this planet.
D'oh I saw a great one on a t-shirt today. but it's escaped me.. hold on.. no.. darnit! I can't remember
no no! i really tried to remember it too, 'cos I saw it and thought of Mary. well, you know what I mean. aaargh, I'm not going to be able to sleep now with trying to remember it.
Well during my first week of uni a bunch of us played the bad chat up line game. Namely we all gave one another a line to use on some poor unsuspecting girl during the night. And you had to have a witness of you using it. failure to do so would result in a dirty pint being beveraged at the end of the night
Well luckily I got chatting to a girl by normal means early on in the night so I told her all about the game and aranged a rehearsed encounter in which I would use the line on her later and told her not to take it seriously (I hate chat up lines anyway) so I dodged a bullet. My fellow students however weren't so tactful here's some of what I heard;
"Nice legs. What time do they open?"
"Get in the van"
"I'm a possitive person.... hiv possitive"
"Have you got any (your town or city) in you?"
If the answer's no then 'would you like some?" If yes then "would you like some more?"
"There are 230 bones in the human body. Room for one more?"
And finally since you're all dying to knoe the line I had to use was;
