Was I wrong to say charity sales woman could have been a model?

[Gusto Brunt]

Okay, so normally I never answer the door to people I don't know or am not expecting.

Today I was expecting a parcel pick-up, so when a young lady rang the doorbell and looked like she was the courier I answered the door.

She said she was collecting on behalf of an Irish charity and could I donate on a regular basis. I said, no because I was skint.:hee:

I then went on to say I could tell she was Irish because she was a good-looking lady and, indeed, she could have been a model. She had striking features. :nono: I wouldn't normally talk like that, what with today and everyone being offended by the slightest thing. :fist:

But she rolled her eyes and walked off.:joker::joker::joker:

In my dad's day, ladies would acknowledge a compliment with a smile. Nowadays, paying a compliment to a lady means you're a pervert and offensive.:joker::joker::hehe:

i think i am correct in saying you have just committed a hate crime

Do you need to be that Forward?

[user104658]

"Wrong"...?

:shrug: I would say it's ****ing creepy but I know a lot of older fellers think it's fine.

That said, an old chap in his 90's once told me I "could have been a star on the silver screen" and I was quite flattered :flutter:. He also then turned to my (at the time) boss and said "......you could maybe have been an extra or something HEH HEH HEH" and walked off, which was heard by all the regulars and he never quite lived it down :joker:.

[bots]

i think it has to be in the right setting, or you need to know the person really well :laugh:

I just dont answer the door, i find that much more appealing

[Niamh.]

You should have told her to cheer up and smile for you, that would make things right :eyes:

I know you meant it as a compliment, I suppose its not much different to the agency scouts who approach people in the street and try and sign them up :laugh: its a bit of a random thing to sat though

I wouldn't say anything like that nowadays tbh lol. I did see a strikingly beautiful woman in Sainsbury's the other day. It kind of knocked me back, she could tell too, but she was professional when serving me, she just kinda smiled and carried on scanning my food. It was quite awkward actually, sometimes we do see people we are instantly attracted to. But yeah, i wouldn't say anything like that in future.

She sounds good at her Job and nice she was polite to you what was you buying because she can tell a lot from what you buy

Im sure she is Micheal, and i dunno, i very much doubt it went that deep for her lol. She could just tell i was attracted to her. She smiled it off and got on with her day im sure.

[Oliver_W]

What makes her think someone at home during the day can afford to give anything away? Maybe she has the brains of a model, if nothing else.

It all depends, but knocking on strangers doors asking for donations is opening a can of worms in my opinion.

I went to advertise a car once in auto trader and ended up going for a drink across the road with two girls from the office

For Some people it comes easy.

[Gusto Brunt]

:shocked:

Could be. It's a very serious offence to make a compliment. :shocked:

[Gusto Brunt]

[I then went on to say I could tell she was Irish because she was a good-looking lady and, indeed, she could have been a model. She had striking features]

Haha. Well, the thing was she was very striking. Like I say I haven't said something like that for years.:hee:

very true. I didn't come knocking on her door. She's putting herself out there.

And it was an off-the-cuff comment. I've done the same to guys. Nothing sexual in it. :hee:

But as I said it was a compliment. You had to see her. I was thinking why is she doing this job? :shrug:

[thesheriff443]

I’m just on the way back from London, you see a lot of talent up there

I suppose you do. But where I live, you see a lot of very average faces, but when you see someone who has a perfect face, and you could see it being on telly, or on the front of a mag, then you're taken aback.

:hee:

You should of said it in a different way like, I don’t mean to be rude but I think you are a stunning looking woman.

I know what you are saying, Its called being drop dead gorgeous

[Gusto Brunt]

I wasn't salivating from the mouth you know. It was a quick comment and then I shut the door.

Totally.

It’s not about standing there with your cock out, it’s about saying something in a way that will be received as a genuine compliment

[Crimson Dynamo]

When i had a paper round as a kid I used to aways hope an attractive woman would open the door and her desssing gown would fall open giving me an eyefull.

Sadly it never happened

Wait a minute. .. she tried to con your bank details out of you and you're the one that feels bad?

Charities don't knock on doors its a scam, you should told her to take her pretty face off your property before you called the police.

I'm conflicted, my feelings on whether you should have said anything about her level of attractiveness if I'm honest. It's a totally innocent comment don't get me wrong, but to a stranger I can see how it could make them uncomfortable.
In this instance I'd say the rolling of the eyes was just frustration because her con hadn't worked so it was time to bail.

We get charities knocking .. giving their convincing chat then saying they can’t take a couple of quid cash and ONLY a Direct Debit will suffice

When I was a teen and going round collecting for the Red Cross a lady opened the door to me wrapped in only a towel with one breast hanging out. Unfortunately it was a saggy one and she was very elderly. :)

There use to be a few 'charities' knocking on my door,and in the area .. even at night after 7 & I think even 9pm one time . Claiming to be 'British heart Foundation' , ' Bernardo's ' etc.

We always told them we're not interested. I don't understand why they'd be knocking & pestering people so late in the evenings.

I was suspicious when one lady was on her own knocking on the door, and she was asking people if she could use their loo :suspect: .

In that situation we're both at risk , it's like the driver & the hitchhiker analogy.

I actually told a young the other day she had amazing eyes.
She smiled broadly and thanked me for the compliment

You can tell if some one finds you attractive instantly
