There have been several times in life when there may have been an open door for me to ask out a guy but I didn't; maybe I was a chicken, maybe my brain just wasn't working, or maybe they opened their mouth and reminded me that I have standards. Here are a few recent examples from my life.
As I approached the bus stop, the drunk guy on the bench complimented me by saying, "I bet your farts smell nice." I think I could have won him over completely, but I was tired and chose to ignore him. Will I regret that decision? Probably.
At a friend's BBQ I was hitting it off with one of the guys there. He told me that I was so easy to talk to, and a few minutes later he said that his boyfriend was just going to adore me. That's always nice to hear, but makes me realize I will have no luck with dating you.
I met an absolutely hilarious guy; talking with him was as good as a pilates class because we laughed so much. Then the attraction was lost when he disappeared for a bit, and someone mentioned something about drugs.
Hiking in Yosemite my friend and I came upon two guys who were doing some work on the trail. One of the guys (aka my soulmate) looked up and asked, "Do you like my goggles?" We said yes and then I asked if they were using dynamite to which he replied, "This is the only dynamite we're using...BAM! BAM! BAM!" as he proceeded to jump up and flex all of his muscles with each "BAM!" I'm going to use the excuse of lack of oxygen from the hike because all I could do was swoon with laughter and walk away. Finally I came to my senses and knew that I would ask that guy to marry me or at least for dinner on the way back, but they were gone by the time we finished our hike. This example hurts my heart the most.
