Was she coming on to me?

    After I parked up in work this morning, a woman getting out of a nearby car called me and said that she'd lost her phone and would I mind ringing it so that she might be able to find it in the car/handbag. So I said, sure, no problem, and asked for her number. She started calling it out and said:

    "This probably seems like the worst pick up line ever! Haha"

    I smiled but didn't have a witty come back! Anyway, we found her phone and said goodbye. I'd never actually seen her at work before.

    I'm a happily married man so, obviously would not be interested, but, my question is: was she coming on to me? Also, what should have been my witty come back?

    She may have just lost her phone. That is possible alright. But I dunno.....

    Bear in mind, she didn't know I was married and may have thought, "oh oh, here's a bit of man candy."

    "Want to see something cool I've got in the boot of my car?"

    Must be hard being you, so handsome :) Your poor missus must be beside herself everytime you leave the house.

    Sounds like she cracked a joke.

    Terrible thing to say! I'm sure the OP is a perfectly attractive man and ladies are falling over themselves the whole time to crack on to him. :pac::pac::pac:

    No.

    It's a little something called being friendly.

    But you tell yourself she was buddy. ;)

    Hey! You've still got it!*



























    *You don't still got it.

    I'm not sure I ever had it to begin with.

    It's probably a strong no on her coming onto you then as unlikely as that was in any case.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,563 ✭✭✭dd972


    No, OP, it was a........j-o-k-e ?: :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 637 ✭✭✭ruthloss


    She must have been waiting ages till she spotted a man with 'Married-Harmless-won't think I'm giving him the come on' look about him.;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    You have her number, send her a picture of your junk see what see replies with.

    Excellent advice. No harm in giving her the 'full picture.'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,376 ✭✭✭Anyone


    Done.


    Text her as well saying "Glad I could help you earlier but I forgot to give you this"

    Waaa chicka waa waaaaaaa('70's pron music)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,345 ✭✭✭The Dagda


    Done.

    By "junk" he means penis and testicles, not household waste.

    Could be embarrassing if you got that wrong!

    must be true, what they say about men thinking about sex every ten seconds or so.

    Listen, women can ask you for help without you thinking they are coming on to you - I'm sure if there was anybody else there she wouldn't have bothered with you. Reality check ;)

    She could have been coming onto him.

    How did you end up married with your obvious talent for reading women?

    Did your wife abduct you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,292 ✭✭✭naughtysmurf

    Give her a text and ask if she was coming on to you?

    what you going to do when she rings you back?

    :confused::D:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,547 ✭✭✭Agricola


    Hah, this is one of the worst cases of male sexual optimism Ive heard of in a while.

    You know when the odd cashier gives you a smile and eye contact while giving you your change? Yeah, shes gagging for it! :D

    Breathe heavily.

    Chicks love heavy breathing. It's got a Barry White-like charm.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,068 ✭✭✭Specialun


    She might aswell have worn a T shirt saying "I want you inside me I heart Internet"..it was that obvious TBH

    It's in my head to the tune of "Total Eclipse of the Heart". Too obvious?

    You were lucky to come out of it with your life. That could have been one of those "can you ring my phone" scams and it's under the car or in the boot and as soon as you go to retrieve it, BAM!!!, lead pipe across the skull, you wake up in New Delhi as a sex slave. The trade ships both ways ya know.

    Better than the one where they ask for the time and you wake up in a bath of ice with no kidneys.

    Lucky Ba$tards..where do these scams occur..for research purposes of course

    it ain't you tho. :P

    Or Alone by Heart.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,385 ✭✭✭Brendan Flowers


    OP, you should have asked her if anyone else knew where is was


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 108 ✭✭JenEffy


    I doubt she was coming on to you, but I find it really odd that she asked a strange guy to ring her phone for her.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,449 ✭✭✭Call Me Jimmy


    If the phone was in her knickers when ye found it then I'd say she was coming on to you

    Aha, that's this afternoon's daydream sorted!

    Well it was a (mainly) a work carpark - so she'd have figured that, even though she didn't know me, I must be OK.

    I think the balance of opinion here is that she wasn't coming on to me. That's absolutely fine. I was just checking. My radar was never the best!

    We'll leave it at that.

    I must have been mistaken. It's just the fact that she was sitting topless in the car at the time really threw me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,231 ✭✭✭mutley18


    Was she hot then? I can't imagine it would be playing on your mind so much if she was a bloater.
