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

Do you need to be that Forward?

"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:.

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

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

Swing and a miss

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.

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.

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.

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:

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:

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