Do you think this is inappropriate?

Recently a man I vaguely know (but not at all well) saw me walking home. He came up to me for a chat. We exchanged small talk and I said "Well I'd better be going" at which point he hugged me very hard and kissed me on the cheek. I felt that this was odd and inappropriate. He is married too. Am I being over sensitive?

oh, I feel I should point out that dp NEVER has a stiffy.

(snuuuurk)

15????

I still enjoy a hand up my skirt at 40!

How are you Naily? Haven't seen you in ages.
How is life in E'burgh?
Are you back taming recalcitrant hardons nursing?

moondog · 20/12/2007 16:51

He won't thank you for revelaing that Squonka.

A man's self esteem is directly linked to duration and frequency of stiffies.

(What is wrong with me today? I never talk like this.)

someone at work just sent me this email:

WARNING - CHRISTMAS SCAM
Generally I hate the warnings that get sent around, but I must admit this one is important.

If a man comes to your front door and says he is conducting a survey and asks you to show him your bum, do not show him your bum.
This is a scam - he only wants to see your bum.

I wish I had got this yesterday. I feel so stupid and cheap!!

nailpolish · 20/12/2007 16:51

yes im fine MD
back nursing
its shite but pays the bills

edinburgh is FAB and its nice to be back

how are you? i do miss you...

SquonkaClaus · 20/12/2007 16:53

obviously I meant an inappropriate stiffy.

I'm sure that there is nothing physically wrong with him. In fact, I may check for myself tonight

moondog · 20/12/2007 16:54

I'm very well thank you.

Dh has just phoned from Heathrow, about to board his plane for Manchester. We are all dying to see him. He's been away for 6 weeks. I'm still here,just not usually at the same time as you.

I hear that E'burgh has fab winter thing going on in Princes St.

moondog · 20/12/2007 16:54

lol at bum thing and stiffy being appropriate or not.

merrylissiemas · 20/12/2007 16:55

nailpolish · 20/12/2007 16:56

6 weeks? that is long.

ed is lovely down princes st - winter wonderland.

i am working xmas but never mind. have a good one MD

SquonkaClaus · 20/12/2007 16:56

twould be tres inappropriate if it occurred when dp was not with me.

moondog · 20/12/2007 16:57

Well, if it is not welcomed on one's thigh then yes.
I've had to fend off an inappropriate stiffy or two in my time.

moondog · 20/12/2007 16:57

Thank you, and you and the family NP!

nailpolish · 20/12/2007 16:58

men get stiffies all th etime. for odd reasons

dh says he just tucks his in his belt

moondog · 20/12/2007 16:58

lol

sandyballs · 20/12/2007 17:14

PMSL at this thread

My DH used to get an inappropriate stiffy whenever he sat on the top deck of a bus. He was quite young though, bless him, and he has grown out of it.

merrylissiemas · 20/12/2007 17:16

ive obviously led a very sheltered life!

CountessDraculaboredofxmasname · 20/12/2007 17:17

Well if dh has been away for 6 weeks I can see why you are thinking about stiffies....

sandyballs · 20/12/2007 17:43

Tucks it in his belt
I am liking the sound of Mr Nailpolish

Janos · 20/12/2007 18:46

If you didn't like it, then it's inappropriate. Personally I hate it when people you don't know very act 'grabby'. Just avoid him.

Janos · 20/12/2007 18:46

D'uh..I mean people you don't know very well, of course.

micegg · 20/12/2007 21:09

If it made you feel uncomfortable then it is inappropriate but also dont think its a big deal. Everyone has different ideas about personal space and affcetionate behaviour. He probably felt quite embarrassed. I would put it to the back of your mind and avoid if possible.
