them1ghtyhumph Hypothetically going to dinner with some one does not make someone a SLUT. Actually going to dinner with someone does not make someone a SLUT. Perhaps in your universe dinner means something different than it does in the real world. Nora has NOT gotten mean with you despite provocation... until page three this thread was fine and seemed hypothetical and then the pickup snark.. … well....

Sir, what DO YOU think the intentions of a man asking a woman on the street, totally unfamiliar to him. out for dinner are? And there was no snark involved. Just total surprise and not understanding how a woman, under the circumstances we live in now, could be that naive.

them1ghtyhumph I read the OPs question as a "hypothetical" … I have re-read it and am still not sure whether it was a "hypothetical" or if it was a "this really happened and I am wondering what you have said in this real life scenario ?"
Sudenly one poster .. way over at the end of page three said Nora, it seems as if you are an easy pickup This judgmental and rather mean statement turned it all personal ! IMO.. no reason to have done this and Nora is handling your snarkiness (intended or otherwise) quite well. again IMO.
EDIT to add... I notice that you never addressed your use of the term "slut" in relation to eating dinner with a stranger.

I didn't start this thread, and I'll post what I think and feel And it's been fun for quite awhile. Now..........................I don't believe I called Nora a slut.

Nora … thanks for this interesting thread which has now gone too far south for me to continue bothering with. It has been taken over by a thrower of f-bombs who I have no intention of dealing with. He seems to need the last word and maybe it's time to give it to him.

So I guess it’s the wrong time to start asking about everyone’s pronunciation of caramel...?

He seems to need the last word and maybe it's time to give it to him. yep. for me the first 3 pages were fun and informative and then the last 3 pages not so much but they had some value too, it was a nice demonstation of how jumping to conclusions or having a bias may derail a person from reality. And as you probably know from my thread on “how much of your reality u think is real” I always enjoy such examples. But now something completelly different - I should finally get out of bed, as I am afraid all the naive slutting is not gonna slut itself!

As someone who actually does this occasionally (though again, not specifically dinner), my intentions are sincerely just to get to know the person better than only seeing them pass me by on the street once in my lifetime.

so imagine you see a girl walking down the street and decide to talk to her. you approach her and say politely "excuse me, sorry to bother you, i dont do this often, please hear me out: I would love to ask you out to dinner, could I take you out to dinner?" the girl looks at you and say "why, why do you want to take me out for dinner?" What do you respond?
I would not respond i would just look at her and just walk away. But before he walks away he would do this...

"excuse me, sorry to bother you, I dont do this often, please hear me out: I would love to ask you out to dinner, could I take you out to dinner?" Red flag right there. Screams pick-up line from a practiced pick-up artist. (imo, anyway)
sorry not to be responding to the actual question but this whole scenerio seems so filled with potential problems and dangers , especially if you are as trusting off line as you seem to be here. Nora You are handling humph magnificently btw ! BUT he isn't there live and in person I could say something REALLY NASTY about Nora's handling of the situation. I'll just say she is handling me by not answering my question. You COULD say something really nasty about her (and actually calling her a slut counts as you already have) ... but, why would you do that? Unless...

I would probably be caught offguard, because isn't it obvious why you ask somebody out? true, but i was caufhr offhuard too, its not like i planned to ask him “why” it just happened to be my natural first reaction. he handled it well though. I get that too.

true, but i was caufhr offhuard too, its not like i planned to ask him “why” it just happened to be my natural first reaction. he handled it well though. I get that too. i was actually completely in my head, on my way to the gym, with blaze foley on repeat in my headphones (man, thats a true power of the movies, had it not been for the movie Blaze I would have never known about this artist and now I am completely in love with a few of his songs). And the last time someone approached me on the street with a request starting "excuse me, i dont do this often but…" was that time the guy told me his sob story about how he is new in new york and people are not nice to him and could i give him some money… so when this guy stopped me, and by that made me take out my headphones and come out of my inner world, it was a really genuine reaction on my part for a sec, I was like, "wait, what, why, where am i, whats going on". i kinda wish the guy would know he truly was a very attractive and interesting sounding guy and i did like how polite and human his delivery was and that had i not been attached i would have gone out with him at least once to learn more about him. i mean we did talk a bit about what he does and who he is and what i do etc, and the exchange was pleasant and interesting enough but yeah, wrong time wrong place. but i dont enjoy thinking he may think i turned him down because he sux as it may negatively impair his future behaviour/feeling of self worth. oh well. such is life though.
