gone fishin' instead of just wishin'

Working at a music store has taught me more about men than I ever thought was possible. Before, I thought I was pretty fluent in 'male,' but I've come to realize I had only scratched the surface- talk about complicated! (Except that it's really only complicated because I'm a woman & apparently that's how we like things).

Last week I was helping a regular customer while bantering with a co-worker. I made the comment 'I'm a lover not a fighter' & my customer said 'I'm sure your fiance or husband loves that,' to which I just smiled & said nothing. Later I told my co-worker 'see my ring (worn on the appropriate finger) has done it's job'. he told me 'no...he was totally fishing'.

Fishing. There's a new one! See, here I thought I'd figured out a way to avoid awkward advances & I'm just making the game much more interesting. How annoying. Well, now that I'm wise to it all I figure it's time to bring in a story...perhaps I could be a real stinker & make it a familiar love story just to mess with them a bit.
