..ok I have two people who currently seem to think they have to wink at me one is one of my tutors

so whenever he catches my eye he winks..

so eg i arrive to clas tlater than everyone else he looks at me and winks

in the middle of the lesson i look up and he winks at me...i just think well ermm doesn't this look a bit weird

he has also done it in the refectory

what the f am i supposed to do back

and a guy at the gym is doing it now too for eg he is sat on an exercise bike behind me who is on the travelator thingy.. i get off look up and he winks theatricaaly

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

Offer some Optrex.

the headmaster at my dc;s old primary school used to wink at me..slightly worrying

Are you a babe?

Be grateful it was a wink and not a w*ank

oh no that asterisk was meant to be INSTEAD of the a not as well as!!!

i just find it disconcerting..end up doing a kind of wank princess di look which is probably even worse

I do seem to find it happens quite a lot

not sure why

i guess it's better than that cheer up it mayn happen love which i used to get

maybe i just look more smiley these days

obvs i am noit a babe lol

tis irony

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.

tis an old crones coy look

i am uhuh with a guy 20 years younger..don't think he has winked at me tho

He hasn't just got an unfortunate tic has he?

lol zippi, ask them

definitely not

gym guy is one of those benign used to be a boxer cuddly weight ligfters

does he wear his prizefighting belt all the time, to try and hide his beer belly?

not quite but yep that is the type..he looks quite clean but is like an extra from the bill otherwise

Maybe they wink at everyone? Some people are just winky types...

lol @ the bill

<i have rejoined pof btw>

what was wrong with the french guy

tutor doesn't wink at anyone else..well not the other two women

wqould be weird if he did wink at the others as they are teenage lads

nothing wrong, he was very very nice

just keeping my options open

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.
