Default I gotta quit phrasing it this way...

...or "Babies are the biggest chick magnet ever"

So I'm in the local Barnes and Noble with my daughter. We get the belly button book, and the a new Baby Einstein DVD. The cougar behind the DVD counter instaprowls over to me when I buggy into the media area with the little one. "Can I help you with anything? Oh, she's so cute! Where's her mommie?"

"Mommie isn't with us" (d'oh!)

"Oh gosh, you're so good with her. Single dads are so hot!"

"Er, mommie's not with us in this store at this particular moment "

<embarassed silence and blushing>

I gotta stop phrasing it this way. I go to the bookstore like once a week, often with my daughter. Everytime she's with me, I get hit on by either an employee, or a random customer. I guess if I ever am single, it's going to be book store chicks FTW.

You're telling me the second thing she said to you was, "Single dads are so hot?"

Yes. Our B&N is like a Cougar outlet store. It's very odd, and the women are very aggressive.

walking a dog has the same effect. my gf has a yellow lab, and lives near a college campus. sometimes i end up walking him alone on the campus. pretty much anytime girls walk by they start talking with me, but only one time did i feel i needed to awkwardly end it by mentioning it was my gf's dog.

No I think this belongs in the cougar brag forum.

This is confusing me as well. This woman thought you told her that you're a relatively recent widow and your child's mother is dead and her reaction was to tell you you're hot?

Struck me as super bizarre too. But sometimes even regular people have a brain fart.

Women are nuts for dudes with babies. I don't know if it's physiological or psychological but the reaction is nuts.

OP - it's also fun to respond with things like "We're not together", "Oh, well, I have the baby"
