what people do for money Houston, United States

Today, I was helping out at my church. At lunchtime, a really cute guy my age walked over and told me I was pretty. I was flattered, until I turned around and saw his annoyed buddies handing him several dollar bills. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Same thing different taste

Maybe the bet was that he wouldn't be brave enough to compliment you? He might think you really are pretty.

What a bunch of assholes :/

What a bunch of assholes :/

Don't worry, the big JC is sending their souls straight to Hell!

That's a bit too much, don't you think, 16? Android 16!!

He might have been an ass but keep in mind that theres other guys out there that are dying to meet you.

What are you on about?

Maybe the bet was that he wouldn't be brave enough to compliment you? He might think you really are pretty.

I dunno. I thought that could've been it, but why would they make the guy bet money on saying it? "Hey, I'll give you $5 if you admit you think she's pretty"? I dunno; doesn't seem right.

I never thought of it this way, but you could definitely be right. Don't be so hard on yourself OP. You don't know the full story! Maybe they just thought he didn't have the guts to go compliment a girl because he's shy.

Could be a really shy person? Maybe they thought he didn't have the guts to do it.

Mxij - What an optimistic (read: naive) view. Unfortunately you made the fundamental error of assuming that people are generally good-hearted. Just remember that in general, people suck.

Thanks for the tip Doc, I'll try to keep that in mind.

I agree. This could be a guy who is usually too shy to do something like that. It seems like an odd bet, and far too easy, if it was a "Hit on the ugly girl" situation. That usually involves dating and such. Bet ya $5 their bet was "I bet you, you aren't brave enough to talk to that girl over there" or something to that extent.

Number 2, I think you are correct!

agree with you number 9

There is this fantastic reply button you could've used :)

what a bunch of dicks

The League of Richards is displeased by that comment.

just keep your head held high and think the best. be confident in yourself! don't let people bring you down!

If I were you I would have punched him in the face :|

Because that's totally not assault and the most rational thing to do [note the sarcasm]

Ignore them op, just a bunch of assholes who have nothing better to do than make others feel bad.

If he's going to act that way, OP certainly shouldn't screw him! ;)

Idk I've dared a friend to talk to a really good looking man before, he might have been sincere. But he's sounds like he was probably an immature asshole so I wouldn't care what a guy like that thought about my looks!

"Paid-- you a compliment"

lolololololol so funny -.-"
