I would probably assume it was a tic, or some dust. Something like that.

Offer some Optrex.

What is a 'wank princess look' zippi? Has it got something to do with f*ck-me shoes?



I got called 'sweetheart' by am aquaintance (I refuse to use the word 'friend') of DH's who is about 20 years younger than me. Being patronised is one thing, being patronised by a child is a step too far. I froze him with a look.

Winking is good I think. A Dad can do it to his daughter in a 'I'm proud of ou/well done' kind of way. A grown man only does it to a grown woman if he fancied her. imo.
