We were in a family-friendly restaurant, around 6:30pm, and I was wearing a loose-fitting, long sleeve shirt, jeans, and no makeup...so I'm not sure where the confusion arose as to what kind of service you were being provided.

He won't acknowledge it. These douchebags never do. But I imagine that he will get wind of it, and at the very least, perhaps he will learn not to be a douchebag again to someone who can I.D. him.

I work in the kitchen at a bar. I was having my after shifter a few days ago and a regular customer came up behind me and attempted to tickle me. I said don't touch me, and when he leaned in the bar and looked down laughing I did the two fingers and "Look at me when I'm talking to you" and repeated that he was not to…

Republicans are the bad boys. Democrats are the Nice Guys. "Okay, since I got you pregnant I guess I'll let you have an abortion, but I don't approve of abortions personally and I think you should have been more responsible and I sure as shit ain't paying for it. Wait...why don't you want to go out with me anymore? Is…

I know this one, I know this one!!! Mr. Clean makes a Magic Eraser mop that's great for getting smudges and such off of hard-to-reach places. You can also make what I like to call a "swabbing tool" but rubberband-ing a rag over the bristles of a broom. Here's a video of me showing that technique and making a really…

By stark contrast, when my now-husband and I were casually dating and I decided to get more serious with someone else, he simply said it was fine and graciously stepped aside. Truth be told he had been hurt by it, but he understood that I was my own person and if I wanted to be with him, I would (and I eventually…

Laura's employer sounds like a great place to work.

In other news, it sounds like Brian got a little of Laura to go. Just ... not the part that he wanted. OOPS.

I love when guys call you things like "cock tease" because you had your photo on a dating website but didn't necessarily want to date them.

I. In General.

So I think I can translate this for you.

They wanted a no strings, no expectations thing....as long as they were the ones calling the shots.

I've run into this too. It's a classic move by the emotionally unavailable person. Keep you at arm's length, but if you step away...they suddenly want you so much more.

Thankfully…

I once had a friendly back-and-forth with some guy and all of a sudden, he told me I needed to either go out with him or tell him outright that I wasn't interested because all of these bitches made him want to delete his account. I messaged him back and said something like "Why would I go out with a guy who acts like…

This guy emailed me on POF. We echanged maybe three emails. I didn't respond to his last email because all he talked about how can use a hot woman like me on his arm, and will wine and dine me, and take me on shopping sprees. He also made a comment about being a "real" man opposed to the "confused" men of our…

Forgive me, but those kind of guys can rot in hell. I didn't have the exact same situation... I and a guy friend started hooking up, and through a series of direct conversations he *told me* he wasn't looking for anything serious. (Direct quote: "I am not looking for any expectations or commitments.") I eventually…

Today I got a message that read "Greetings, pardon my intrusion and directness but you have great tits, I mean curves ;-) My compliments"

(If this were a true trend piece, the title would be something like, "Men: Are They the New Women?")

I honestly know way more dudes who get this way over relationships/ romance type situations than women. Way. More. I don't understand where the crazy, clingy, overly emotional women stereotype comes from, I really don't.

People should be required to take an online dating etiquette course before having their OKCupid (or whatever) account activated. First lesson: YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO A RESPONSE. No response = other person not interested = move on. Second lesson: THIS IS A DATING SITE, NOT A SERVICE FOR PERVERTS TO INDULGE THEIR…

I once went on two dates with a dude who sent me a few random texts about how gorgeous I was and how glad he was that we met, which, okay, whatever. It was a little weird, but he was nice enough and we had a lot in common. But the night before our third date, he sent me text calling me out for being emotionally cold…

Because God loves you, just say thank you and empathize with the others.
