Yesterday I was eating an apple during break. I noticed an older colleague (a teacher of Dutch as well) staring at me. Suddenly he came to me and asked in a shy way...

"Uhm, Marie, do you like to eat apples?"

I said: "Uhm yes, at least three a week."

He answered: "I like apples too. I've been thinking about it, and I think that you have such a beautiful, slim body because you eat fruit. You're always eating fruit during break."


I thought that was such a funny conversation. One of the other co-workers heard this and started to laugh.

He got a red face, mumbled 'sorry for this remark' and turned away.

Did you receive funny compliments lately?

he sounds like a perv

That's kind of creepy actually.

"I've been thinking about it..."

He sits at home and ponders about your lunch and body every day.

At school he's a very shy man, sweet but a bit boring.

Another co-worker told me he turned out to have a dirty mind when drunk on a school-trip.

So I think he's at least frustrated, maybe a bit perverted, but not that harmful.

I was told I was "the most intriguing mix of masculine and feminine".

I quite like that.

Someone once called me 'the perfect mix of an angel and a whore.' I still don't know how to take that.

shausler said:

Oh God, I feel like defending this poor guy now.

MarieLouise said:

I think that's a fantastic mix.

MarieLouise said:

A guy once yelled out at me from a car "Baby...I got what you NEED!"

"dont think I'm a perv or anything, I just like to watch them once in a while"

You have big toes,,, I want to suck them.

I remmeber when I was growing up in Alabama.

Teachers and classmates would alway "compliment" me when they found out I was Asian saying, "You don't look the least bit Asian--you look normal."
