Sab presents "How I'm a loser"
 

Preface this by saying I don't like salt-water taffy. I'll eat it from time to time, but my instant reaction to salt-water taffy is that I don't want it. Also preface this by saying I hate people, I avoid eye-contact with strangers at all cost and anytime I'm in a situation, I do whatever it is that gets me out of having to talk to people I don't know the fastest. It's my instictual reaction.

I go to the bank today as I usually do on Fridays to deposit my check. This time I happen to go to a branch I usually don't. My bank is Commerce Bank and they have a Penny Arcade (coin counter) machine next to the teller counter. Important that you know it's on the left of the counter (Much like in poker, person position is important to this story)

They have this girl standing there. Yes, a hot one. I don't get the best view of her face (I don't want to look like a stalker or pervert) but she's cute and has this totally bangin' body. long legs, nice ass, waistline, breasts, neckline (I've learned to analize a woman's body in mere seconds). The works. Such a nice body.

A guy walks up and she helps him with the Penny Arcade. Now...I get to stare. :) And I'm thinking, "I have no chance with this chick. None whatsoever. Here I am, fat, there she is, bangin'. As I stand here fantasizing about all of the things I could do to that body, I am fat and unattractive."

My turn. I go up and hand the teller (3rd over from the Penny Arcade, there are 4 people being helped) my check and checking deposit slip. Out of the corner of my eye I see the hot piece of ass walk up to me. She hands out something and she asks "Would you like some salt-water taffy?". Since I don't like salt-water taffy and my instictual reaction is to get out of being talked to as fast as possible, of course you all can see by now what my instant, "didn't think about it for even a split second" reaction was. I say "No thank you." as I look up to see her smile, say "Ok" and walk away. It was then I realized that she did not go to the person to my right and ask them if they wanted any. It was then that I realized that she did not offer to the 2 customers to my left. At that INSTANT I realize that it was me. I was the destination of her short trip over from the Penny Arcade. Me. Within a second of her saying ok, I realized I had made an awful mistake.

Anyone looking directly at me saw a small grimace come over my face at that moment. I get my receipt and head out the door. I sat in my car for a few minutes replaying what just happened over and over in my mind. This hot chick, who had a body that at this moment I'm still thinking about, came up to me....

....and I said "No thank you."

I hate myself.

I'm guessing it wouldn't do much good to ask for pix...

More people than are likely to admit it have "been there" too.
Not that you are likely to find much consolation in that right now ...




You fuckin' loser


:D

My life (not necessarily dealing with a hot girl, but just about everything in general) in a nutshell.

Cheer up. I'm sure that you weren't her sole destination; it's just that your rejection crushed her soul, and she lost the will to offer taffy to anyone else in line.

Or maybe she was just trying to get rid of crappy taffy and thought "the fat guy will eat it. I bet he would eat anything."

Good, because next week I'm going to that same fucking branch at the same fucking time and hoping that she's there again and I can get a second chance.

Well even if you had handled this situation smoothly and actually got her number or gone out with her, you would prob have f*cked it up like i do quite often lately ...

:(

LMAO. I needed that. :)

LOL LOL LOL

We are all collectively pissed at you, however, for dropping the ball on this one. CW's thread needs some company.

The important thing is not to spend your time regretting how it went down.

The important thing is, how long will this girl be good fantasy material? ;)

Didn't George have a similar incident on Seinfeld?

My hero...

Whats wrong with salt-water taffy?

George didnt go up for coffee.

Sab...you're not fat....just big boned....at least that's what my mom always said to me:D

How about going back and asking for her number? Think of it as a training course.

How cute women often end up being stalked Ver 1.1

OK class, how should Sab have handled this situation differently. I wouls especially like to hear from some of the girls this time.

I think you should go back ASAP and try and get her number. If she says no, what the hell, its not your normal branch, you just never go back there again.

Bring her some salt water taffee and offer it to her.

Ask her if she's down with rimjobs.

Tell her you've got some Taffy that needs pulling, its very salty i hear...

Ask her what he thoughts on a players volatility rating is.

25 posts and not one "Cocky and Funny" remark.

This board is slipping.

The good looking ones just end up cheating on you.

Ask her if she's a middle school teacher...

stand in front of her, then spontaneously ejaculate in your pants. Smile creepily at her and say "you made me do that." Repeat as necessary.

That's how Cam met his wife.

If it makes you feel any better, in today's youth culture "salt water taffy" is slang for "oral sex".

No, wait, I suppose that wouldn't make you feel any better...

oh man this thread is gold. Keep it up, everyone.

Aye, that they do.

I think at this point your only recourse is to return to said branch with $63,992.50 in change to exchange.

The amount is important because it will give you enough time for nature to take its course. After several days of watching the machine make little to no progress, she will give in to her earthly desires and become your slave.

That, or she will shove the change up your ass.

However, if you look at the bright side, getting $63,992.50 in change shoved up your ass by a hot woman could be considered kinky. :)

hey, at least my wife doesn't call out the names of Duran Duran members in bed. :)

You guys are so cruel! Sabotai is not a loser...he acted and did what any of you I am sure have done on at least one occasion. You see someone who you think is out of your league, and when they approach you, it doens't even dawn on you to think they have ulterior motives.

It's a little late now, but you should have either gone back in and made up an excuse to get in her line (forgot to make a deposit or withdrawl, have a question, whatever) (NOTE TO ALL OTHER READERS - ABSOLUTELY NO JOKES OR OFF COLOR REMARKS ABOUT THE "DEPOSIT OR WITHDRAWL" LINE IN THIS POST!!!!!) and tried to start a conversation with her. Even if it's just smiling and saying hello. If she answers back, take the lead and ask her some questions, mention that isn't your usual branch, etc...see if you can find out any more info about her.

Being that it's too late for that, if you know her name, even first name, you could call the bank, ask to speak with her - tell her who you are and then say she had the best smile you had seen in a long time and you kept wishing you'd asked her for a drink. See what she says - the worst she can do is say no thanks, and then there isn't really any humiliation b/c it's over the phone and you don't bank there anyway.

LOL

Mine does this.....i have to wear Duran Duran concert t-shirts to bed:)

:(

Sab, in all seriousness, this should make you feel better.

I've been in that situation (smoking hot girl way out of your league starts hitting on you for no discernible reason) once before. Unlike you, I din't choke. I rolled with it, flirted back. A little bit cocky, a little bit funny. One thing lead to another. You know how it is.

Here's the thing: I ended up marrying her. Ten years later, I have never scored with another woman again, and know that I never will.

There but for the grace of god...

I'm going to ask my wife if I can make a "deposit" in her "slot".

Thanks, oliegirl!!!!!

Obviously some sort of food maven, my guess. She sees a guy who looks like he enjoys food, and she tries out her special new salt water taffy recipe. I think you were looking at four, maybe five months minimum of absolutely fantastic meals. With benefits.

And all you had to do was humor her by pretending to like a little bit of syrup and sugar.

i worked on a rock tour this springr (stay with me, this is going somewhere). for the last 2 shows on the west coast, the usual merchandise guy went home, so the t-shirt company sent a smoking hot 19-year old 'part time' italian model (they exist, apparently). anyway, every roadie took his shot with her, and got shot down.

the guy i was closest to on tour just talked to her about the doodles she kept drawing, ended up getting her phone number as a friend, and the tour ended. he went home to florida, she stayed in california.

long story short, 5 months later, they just had sex on the beach two nights ago. my friend now swears he will never not talk to a hot girl again. you just never know.

Front Office Taffy speculation in 3...2...1...

Okay, this is getting more trite than even the trout comments.

Do you have this phrase painted on your bedroom walls as the Canadians do in their dressing room? :D

Can anyone explain to a 35 year old what this means? Does that mean they shared a meatball sandwich or something?

Even worse, you posted 4 times and no mention of the Ladies Men. I am truely disappointed...

Before I opened this thread, I saw the thread title - Sab presents "How I'm a loser" and thought:

Longest.Post.Ever.


:)

And this was supposed to encourage me to go after this girl? :D

Thanks for the serious replies (and the humor ones. I can have a sense of humor about this. :) ). The bank she works at is about 15 minutes from my house (as is the one I usually go to, it's just in a different direction). So it's not like it's 100 miles away. I'll just start going there every week instead of the other one and see what happens.

Good decision sab !
