Cause if I asked someone the time, and they responded with 'shut it', I'd kind of think that that meant that they WEREN'T interested in giving me the time. Were you confused by my first post??? I WANT to show interest, but not too much interest.
Interesting aside, remember on "Happy Days" when Fonzie would say "SIT ON IT"?
: : There was this girl at this bookstore or musicstore I don't remember and she asked me for the time and I said "it's 10:30" and she said "thank you" (in response to me saying "it's 10:30".
: : Was that being too aggressive do you think? My friends didn't think so, but I don't really ever give girls the time...I wasn't like THROWING myself at her, and it's not as if he wasn't responding well, but yeh...comments? What is proper time-giving etiquette?
