Well go figure...my first blog ever. I've honestly no clue what to talk about but in times like these you just kinda go with the flow I guess. I'm having an issue at the moment that is really bothering me. I tend to be tactfully straight forward about just about everything. The problem is that a lot of women don't really know how to respond to me. I met this lady today at work. She's very pretty by the way as I tend to reach for the stars when it comes to that sort of thing. I compliment her eyes as well as her amazing figure and she took it as a sexual advance. I have the utmost respect for women and simply wanted to let her know that she was beautiful. I'm a sucker for pretty eyes. So much so that I have to really concentrate on a conversation or even look away. Also, a woman that takes care of herself is even more attractive. My compliments were in no way disrespectful. The exact wording was as follows..."you're eyes are so beautiful and your symmetry is simply astounding". After explaining to her what the second half of my sentence meant (and being turned off by her lack of vocabulary), she said that she doesn't appreciate being verbally molested. First off, i'm not one of those extremely intelligent people that use big words to project my ego onto other people. I simply make it a habit to pick up a dictionary every now and again to expand what vocabulary I do have. Second...was that really such a bad thing to say to a woman? Maybe I did cross the line and was simply unaware of it. Maybe I simply insulted her intelligence. Needless to say...back to the drawing board. Thank God I have tomorrow off cause only he knows what's going to become of that situation...go figure

I feel you on the complimenting tip. In Chicago where i'm from the women here (mostly the sistas) don't even know how to take a compliment. If you tell a chick she looks good she mean mugs you. I don't even bother hitting on women here. It's frustrating and unless you're an athlete, music producer, or a drug dealer, they don't want anything to do with you. Nothing wrong with having a vocabulary and being able to articulate. Not only using big words but knowing what they mean. I'm no MENSA myself but i like having knowledge. If these chicks don't appreciate a dude that has a vocabulary, FUCK EM! It's their loss.

My thoughts exactly but it honestly does work a number on your ego when you see some idiot use some retarded line from the 80's and it works...
