I Think a Girl Hit On Me Today

I went to the hair salon tonight and was waiting for my appointment. It's important to the story, and that's why I'm telling you I was wearing cordoroy pants, a t-shirt, and Asics.

Two girls, who seemed very into each other, were sitting across from me. It seemed like they were friends with one of the hairdressers. After a couple of minutes, one of the girls caught my eye and smiled. So I smiled back.

A while later, one of the girls got up and walked away. That's when the other one asked me what struck me as a weird question:

Potential Lesbian: Do you run cross-country?
Green Yogurt Who Is Not Gay, Not That There's Anything Wrong With That: Nooo...
PL: Oh, because you're wearing exactly what I used to wear when I ran.
GY: Oh. Nah, I just threw on something comfortable.
PL: Yeah, that's the only part of running I miss - the comfortable clothes. Soo.... you don't run?
GY: No

Okay, do I *LOOK* like the type of person who's a cross country runner? I don't even know what it MEANS to run cross country! Every time I've crossed the country I've flown. What on earth would make someone look at me and think I might be some sort of fancy runner? I can barely run after a moving ice-cream truck.

Which is why I think maybe she was hitting on me. Because why else would she strike up such a weird conversation. Of course, I could be wrong. In which case I think she's just a little stupid. Not only for looking at me and thinking I'm a runner, but who the hell would wear cordoroy pants to go running?

I told a friend about this, and she suggested that perhaps while both girls were lesbians, they might have just been friends with each other. That would make me feel better - I would like to think the one girl talking to me was not being disrespectful of her relationship with the other girl. I was just happy my friend didn't laugh at the idea of someone hitting on me.

I'm just guessing, but I imagine running in cordoroy would generate enough (static) electricity to power a small apartment. (Not that there is anything wrong with THAT)

LOL!!! silliyak :D

Years ago, when hubby and I were dating, my best friends boyfriend was living in a rooming house for a couple months while he went to college. Everyone got along great and one girl there especially. I felt like I had known her forever.
She called me her "soulmate" Which I laughingly agreed with.

Because I am oblivious to anything that isn't spelled out for me, I was the only one there who didn't realize she was a lesbian (not that there is anything wrong with that ;)) Just me and her were in the kitchen, drinking(drunk) and chatting, when she said its too bad you're taken, which I thought was an odd thing to say, but I laughed and said some flip thing about bf being away for a couple weeks and this Cat was going to play.
Next thing I knew I am pinned in the corner with this girl giving me a massive liplock and feeling me up. I kept trying to push her away, shes telling me she loves me.
I fall all over myself apologizing, telling her I only liked her as a friend, I didn't know she was gay, that I wasn't gay, I liked guys, and on and on and on. I felt horrible, Did I lead her on? was it my fault? Even now I still feel guilty for hurting her.
