This is so true! The receptionist at the doctor's office always wants to know why you are there. And she expects you to answer in front of a room full of other patients. It's wrong and almost always embarrassing.
Many of us have experienced this, and there is another way to handle it. An 86-year-old man walked into a crowded waiting room and approached the desk. The receptionist said, 'Hello, sir. Can you please tell me why you're here to see the doctor today?'
'There's something wrong with my d**k,' he shouted.
The receptionist instantly became irritated and said, 'You shouldn't come into a crowded waiting room and say things like that.' 'Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told you,' the man said.
The receptionist replied, 'Now you've caused some embarrassment to all these other people. You should have said there is something wrong with your ear or something and discussed the problem further with the doctor in private.'
The man replied, 'You shouldn't ask people questions in a room full of strangers, if the answer could embarrass anyone.' The man walked out, waited several minutes and then re-entered.
The receptionist smiled smugly and asked, 'Yes?'
'There's something wrong with my ear,' the man shouted.
The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken her advice. 'And what is wrong with your ear, sir?'
'I can't p*ss out of it,' he replied.
The waiting room erupted in laughter

I THINK YOU'RE THE FATHER OF ONE OF MY KIDS
A guy goes to the supermarket and notices an attractive woman waving at him. She says hello. He's rather taken aback because he can't place where he knows her from.
So he says, 'Do you know me?' To which she replies, 'I think you're
the father of one of my kids.'
Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife and says, 'Are you the stripper from the bachelor party that I made love to on the pool table with all my buddies watching while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery?' She looks deeply into his eyes and says calmly, 'No, I'm your son's teacher.

Just thought of something else redsox, If a man says he will call you and he doesn't, that means he isn't a man of his word. Do you really want someone in your life that isn't a man of his word? I don't. Cheer up sweetie 
No, I don't!! I've already given up!! Thanx! |

I went out on Halloween nite with a local guy. After the party, he said he had a great time, we exchanged phone numbers, but he will not call me!! I hate that!!  Why do guys do that?? It burns me up! I feel like I was just a one time thing for him, I hate that!! Sorry, I just had to vent a little!
IF--
if he didn't like the date, how many people do you know have the guts to tell you that at the end of a date?
just keep that in mind
He told me he had a great time! |

Hi sweetie, same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago. Went out to dinner with a guy I met on here and after date he never contacted me again. But on the same hand, I didn't contact him either, so I guess that means we weren't that interested in each other. More fish in the sea, don't let it bother you. That is why I put on my page, If you have a problem with people in wheelchairs, let's not waste each others time. I know it sounds *itchy, but what can I say, i'm direct and to the point and too old to waste my time with someone that has "hang ups". And men say they don't want a woman that "plays games", what he did to you sounds like a game to me, hmmmmm?
Problem is, I called him, no answer! He should have at least let me know, right? |

I know how that feels. It feels like a one night stand without the benefit of sex!!! 
Although it upsets you, try to think of it as God looking out for you by weeding him out for you ahead of time, before it's too late!!!
I do hope for you that he's a good man and still calls and has a reason. I've noticed that sometimes people have such a nice, easy time with someone and it SCARES THEM!!!
Oh, I've never thought of it that way!! |

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy getting a promised call myself. But if I don't, I always have my job, my daughter, or my everyday life to keep me occupied. I hang on a string for no one.
Me either, it just ticked me off, that's all! |
