06/19/2003: "I'm so not a flirt"
Today I was walking through the mall past all the island kiosks they have down the center of the hallway, not really paying attention to what was going on around either side of me. As I'm passing one that sells lotions, the guy working there steps out in front of me and offers me some lotion to try. He was hot, and I briefly debated saying, "Only if you're going to rub it in for me." Then I realized that if I tried to say that, I would end up laughing and not being able to keep a straight face before I even was through the entire sentence, so I just politely declined and walked away laughing.
I guess that's why I'm not much of a flirt...I think it's so utterly ridiculeous. I was reading an article in Cosmo tonight about how to flirt, and some of the things they suggested were like, "Keep eye contact with a guy for five seconds. Then seductively bite the corner of your lips and look down."
Yeah, that's probably EXACTLY why guys think I'm unapproachable. I don't make a fool out of myself with silly gestures and pickup lines. So if you see me somewhere and think I'm cold and reserved, trust me, I'm a nice person. I just like laughing WITH myself, not AT myself.

I hate those goddamned lotion people. They are the bane of my existence. The ones here are extremely persistent and will NOT let you walk away without a fight.melantha, Friday, June 20th
