.....Stories to share??
....this morning...Girl @ DonutShop really admired my....
......hair's length...
...guess what everybody's saying is true afterall...
.
Not any "specific" stories to share right off the top of my head, but - like you - am also curious as to if others might have stories. I don't know about you guys, but it seems that married women are often curious with their stares. My little gang and I (during my college days) used to have a joke between us about my long hair...I was the only one in the group who had long hair. Anyway, my friends used to say, "If there's a married woman in this bar, or if there is a divorced "older" woman in this bar, or if there is a woman in this bar with a baby...then before the night is over they will find you." And do you know that almost 7 times out of 10, by the end of the night I would be talking to either/or 1 of the 3 types of women that I mentioned above?! I can't explain it either, but my friends had it nailed right on the head 7 out of 10 times. Of course, the time frame I am talking about here was in the early '90's and all of this happened in the Atlanta area...(which is where I have lived my whole life)...so I don't know if that had anything at all to do with these strange happenings or not...but it was really kind of funny how these women would mysteriously seek me out during the course of the night. That was then...this is now...the bar days have long gone by the wayside - unless my wife and I get together with a few other couples and go out to a bar. Now a days I mostly find that mysterious stare coming from women my own age...married or not...who back in my college days would have been that "older woman" type that I was talking about. My friends and I (I am still the only one of the group with long hair) have discussed the mystery a few times and have come to the following conclusion(s)...the long hair is a kind of symbol that you are a "rebel"? These women are married to guys who have that "IBM/Corporate - suit & tie" short haircut parted to the side and this bores them? The money is nice, but the fact that their husband's jobs come before their wife's do is causing them to stare your way because you have that care-free mysterious persona about you? Help me out?! Like I said, my friends and I couldn't figure it out...this is just some of the ideas we came up with back in those days when we were big in the bar scene. If you have anything to add, then please do as I am curious to know if you guys get that "mysterious" look from women?!
