Do You Have a Boyfriend?


The other day, one of my clients asked me this question.  He's an older, slightly intimidating gentleman and we know him and his wife well.  I believe they think they are entitled based on their affluence, which is a character trait I absolutely detest now after having to provide customer service to such people for so long.  But I can tell he thinks I'm smart and has respect for me.  Thus, he's not as bad as the others.  So I answered his question honestly with a no, I do not.  He then asked why not?  You're pretty.  And I said I know.  :)  I immediately realized that I probably sounded conceited and so I followed up with a thank you.  Then, I proceeded to explain that I am selecting someone carefully and that can take a long time.  And he said, "I like that."

I thought about it later and I decided that I like that too.
