  • Creepiest Pickup Line Ever?

    Lately, I've been in random places where I will have a conversation with an older guy and they will offer the same thing to me, "If you need a place to stay tonight, you can always stay with me."

    Can we say creepy? I just met you!
     
    This has happened to me three times recently. THREE! During the worst possible moments. I was in a car wreck during January (wasn't my fault, it was a hit and run) and an older man happened to stop and help me out with calling the police and filing the report on the accident.


    He waited with me on the feeder to make sure the tow truck was coming and so I wouldn't have to wait alone. As we made small talk he then turned to me and said that line. Not only was I totally creeped out but isn't that kind of a weird thing to offer during a car wreck of all situations? 
     
    The second time was at the airport. As I was waiting in line to check my bags in, and the line was going particularly slow, I decided to turn around and ask the older man behind me a question. He began making small talk about where he was from, then he mentioned how he likes to go clubbing, then it got down to "If you'd ever like to visit you're more then welcome to stay with me."

    I ran to the 'bathroom' to hide until the coast was clear then hurried to the end of the line. 
     
    The last was at the hardware store. I like going there to restock my art supplies at this local mom and pop store in my neighborhood. This, yet again, older man was there helping me cut a sheet of plexiglass I needed for a project I was working on at the time.

    As we started to converse for a short period he mentioned how he had a second home at the nearby beach and invited me over. It was all just weird. I grabbed my things, paid, and left.
     
    Well, there ya have it. Maybe I'm just randomly meeting the creepiest people ever? Each of these guys were older then me, around 30-40 yrs, while I'm almost 20. I'm not sure if with age comes less suave one-liners, but these guys really need some help.

    I hate to say it, either that or maybe some lessons from the pickup artist. These guys looked normal until they said that one line. What started as polite small talk turned into creepy, weird, awkward moments which left me feeling uncomfortable. 
     
    Anyone else get hit on by the occasional creeper?
