Bol' face ppl

[serenity]

You know, this has happened to me many many times before, and yet each time I'm a little surprised. How is it that ppl have no problem asking you your business? Point blank with no apologies?

Yesterday evening a guy who I've seen around approached me and introduced himself and offered to take me to lunch. Cool. I figure the easiest way to refuse was to tell him I have a bf and dont think it would be appropriate. You know he ask me how long I in that relationship?! If is something that now start or is years now. :shock:

Ah mean come on! Where u going with that? So if I start that relationship yesterday, would that change the fact that I already said no?

An acquaintance asked me last week, 'so where u working now?' I told her. 'So how much money yuh making dey?' :shock:

I feel I does smile with ppl too much.

[Falcon]

it is so crass to ask a non-partner how much money they make.........shhesh!

the man was trying a thing. waz the big deal???

[snowbird]

I think you may have opend the door to his line of questioning :)

he simply asked you to lunch which is a normal social activity, you volunteered to share some very personal information with him; by your response he naturally realized you took his invitation to be an 'application for a new boyfriend', so he walked through that door you opened having received the invitation. :lol:

Eh eh. Nice try eh sb. He started about how attractive he thought I was etc as a prelude to the invite to lunch. It was very clear to us both exactly where that was going. :lol:

[strombo23]

[Solachica]

I have a friend who does ask how much things cost. When we now met 1st day she asked me how much my glasses cost.
To this day she does just in casual conversations ask people how much things cost.

Bold face people does come and stare when yuh eatting and some does want to come take from yuh plate too. Some does tell u next time to bring for them to.

:) Then you could have tried a two part response i.e.

You: "Thanks for the lunchon invite but no thank you".......... if he insisted, then

"Truth is, I have been banned from every restaurant in T&T since that unfortunate event"

Him... "What unfortunate event" ?

You (with an evil look) ....... "THE ONE WHERE I CHOKED THE LIVING HELL OUT OF SOMEONE WHO COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT NO THANK YOU MEANS " :lol:

[Solachica]

If someone ask me for lunch like tht a No wud be the 1st and last thing you getting from me if I not intrested. I not a grumpy person so you wud get your no pleasantly and then I'll ignore u.

[serenity]

:lol:
SB, u eh easy nuh!
But the fella woulda think I joking with him and persisted. What if he had offered to cook for meh? :lol:

Strombo, when ah get meh visable six pack abs I'll post a pic for sure!

Sola, you will jus tell de fella no and walk away? Besides, he asked nicely, the disturbing part is hwat happened AFTER I said no.

So whappen? This does only happen to me? Nobody does jus ask allyuh yuh business jus so?

Then you could have tried this one .......

"I have this life long commitment to my family to always dine with them; as a result do you mind if I bring along my Grandmother; my father; my two little sisters; our two year old nephew (ah promise tuh replace anything he breaks) and my uncle (he's ah little off, but he quiet).

[serenity]

Buh SB, ah didnt know u was a Tommy Joseph! :lol: :lol: :lol:

[bluenote492000]

What is up with boldfaced people? Went to my youngest brother's parents day he's 14 I'm 23 but have a real baby face so I look alot younger than I am. You would tell me one of the nosy mother's walk up to me and say "Ah don't mind being fas but you is Randy mother?" :o :shock: I was like "What the hell!! When was I suppose to have him?" :shock: My brother laugh about that all the way home yes.

[snowbird]

Buh SB, ah didnt know u was a Tommy Joseph! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ah eh kno who is Tommy Jospeh, buh at least ah tak it yuh eh sayin in odder words ah shootin off me mouth like Tommy Gun :lol:

[SSDD]

my approach was sum like this
him: ms u have husband n thing already
me: yea
him: so um, you love him? u don't horn him
me: no
him: (rather confused) why not

i just started laughing and didn't bother to answer the only reason the convo went on so long is cause i was waiting to cross the road ppl real god yes

[Solachica]

Yes I wud have said no and walked away.
Well u had to wait to cross the road so if it was me I wudda just ignore him after. No use carrying on further conversation.

[vaio]

sometimes some ppl feel "no" is just playing hard to get... :roll:

Serens gyul, yuh must be a hot mama playing hard to get. Well, the least you could tell us is how much money yuh making.

[serenity]

Lexbarker why u so idle?! :geek:

[Solachica]

But true dey serenity. Smiling does get yuh in trouble. Happens to me to. Especially with the Older men.

[sheppy]

Serenity...de man jus din believe yuh really had a boyfriend...he tink yuh was just trying to play hard to get...
either that...or he just doh take no fuh an answer (d first time around)

[KFCSpicy]

I love to relive farse people questions... I can't stop laughing at some things people does ask yuh. Whey yuh wukking? How much u getting dey? Whey yuh buy that? How much yuh pay? You know he? Yuh was with he?

In the club one night me and my friend hanging and this guy walks up to her and says umm yuh wah dance ah wah? So she who is always smiling and polite was like no thanks I am good. He say well leh we go in de corner and talk nah...she say nah I good thanks...yuh kno dis bol' face loser go turn and say well buy meh ah drink nah :shock:

She and I was on de floor rolling wid laff. I hate when man come up to yuh and pull yuh to dance like u and them come in de party together and they paying yuh mortgage :roll: I does start limping if I in a good mood and saying sorry chah dance because of meh old war injury...and point at meh legs and say is a wooden one and limp off.

I tell men before they even walk up to me "NO!" and end dat right dey! If u brave and persistent is proper buff yuh getting.

When people ask me direct pointed questions I does answer them simply and say now why is that your business? And if they nah like that response well...

[kayt]

You'd think NO would do. I've found when you don't say no right away the questioning starts. When I said I'm busy some say what with? If I say business, they ask what kind of business? :shock: I've told a guy that I have a boyfriend and he asks what's the colour of my boyfriend? My BF could be green with red polka dots the important thing is I'm already with someone.

I also don't like when people who know my mobile number call and ask where I am at that moment? It's obvious I'm NOT in their very presence. The only way that question is tolerable is when I've arranged to meet up with someone somewhere.

[KFCSpicy]

:D ^^^

I think with some men they doh understand NO in any form. No I don't want to dance does translate to not right now maybe 3 seconds from now ask meh again to some of them.

When I am asked out I go out with the person I even suggest going to my bf's club so when he is there working the DJ booth I am there on a date. :twisted: That does cramp lots of losers style when they realise I take dem to meh man's club. I actually was taken out one night and left with my bf and told the guy who brought me out g'night we go talk reach home safe eh! :lol:

I give a damn? Steupse if you cyah hear dat I have a man and u cyah take meh subtle hints of sod offffffff loser i gots a man then I cyah help yuh.

Long time in school some teachers used to mind yuh business jess so jess so, then talk bout it during dey lunch time. I doh like mindin people business, but I does reallllll have gossip and hear things cause I am just in the right place listening. So people does just start saying K yuh eh hear bout so and so? And I never know nothing so is nope. I had a ruff neck girl come into my girlfriend's store and ask me whey i does do meh hair, why I wearing dat shade ah brown powder, if i is de girl wid de man wid de red truck, how she like meh ear piercings and she going and get she own pierced in de same places too. :shock:

A Tad bit sykohtic if u asked me. I does get reallllllllllll uncomfortable dread. Why u so want to be all up in meh beezwax dread? I doh like people copying what ah wear either or seeing meh in something and going and get the same stuff after. I does get nervous nervous like nancy de nanny goat dread.

I realise I too hot and sexy for my own good anyways :D

[Mysty]

I thought it was me alone that notice such things.

People asks all kinds of personal questions at first encounter.
One woman was so bole face to ask how much money my partner earns? steupps
