Tonight I served a table of two gentlemen who were out for dinner. One was quite good-looking and he gave me a lot of attention. All I did was greet them and start describing our dinner specials and he acted like he couldn’t keep his eyes off me. By the time I had their drink orders and walked away, I could feel my body responding on a very primitive, gut level. At the same time my mind knew exactly what this was: this was a married man!
I hadn’t seen his left hand yet, but I have learned that most of the time when an attractive guy in his 40’s gives that much sexual attention in a such a superficial situation, he’s married. He’s married and bored, or he’s married and wants to believe his marriage is over, or he’s married and separated and thinks it’s okay to flirt with other women, but the bottom line is HE’S MARRIED. Gross. Pathetic. Euw.
Sure enough when I took their drinks back there was the wedding ring, fat and gleaming, on his left hand. And there were his gorgeous, flirtatious eyes, locked onto mine like he’d never seen such an enchanting person before. Slime!
He kept it up every time I went by their table until I was so disgusted I told the bartender about him. The bartender is married, so I felt like I was also warning him NOT to try this behavior because it’s wrong, pathetic, manipulative and icky.
I am so disgusted by what some married men will do.
