Today, I pulled up to a McDonald's order window for an afternoon Diet Coke and snack for Hazel. I placed my order and pulled up to the payment window. The following conversation transpired:
(Young) Guy: hi the- (big smile) wow...you are pretty.
Me: (taken by surprise from the compliment from a clearly teenaged guy but managed to say) wow! Thanks!
Guy: hey, want to go to grad with me? I don't have a date but I have a limo booked. I'll pick you up? Please?
Me: (deer in the headlights)
Guy: (smiles and leans toward the window seeking a response)
Me: (cough) uh, wow. Thank you for the invite, but...I'm married and have children. I don't know what my husband would say. (Awkward smile)
Guy: you have kids?!? (Now he appears to be in shock - his eyes then light up and he adds) Do you have a daughter?
Me: (annoyed now...I just want my diet coke!) yes. I have three. They are 8, 5 & 3.
Guy: ooookay then. Have a nice day.
Me: thanks. Hope you find a date.
