A Touching Scene

Submitted by Greg:

April worked as a florist near my house, and I asked her out to dinner and a movie.  Dinner went fine.

At the movies, I picked a seat and she sat one seat away, putting an empty seat between us.  I moved over to sit next to her and she again shifted one seat away.  I asked her what she was doing.

She said, "I know what guys are like in movie theaters."

After a moment of stunned silence, I asked, "What are they like?"

She said, "You know.  You're a guy."

I said, "Remind me."

She said, "I don't know.  All touchy-feely."

I asked her, "What if I'm not like that?"

"All guys are."

Well, so that's how we watched the movie.  And since (to take a page out of her book) all florists are INSANE, I didn't ask her out again after that.

  2. Sweetie, florists aren't crazy. Just the one you decided to go out with.
    It's called poor judgement.
