Hi Qatarisun I am not saying that a man has never asked. All I am saying is I was blown away by the way in which it was done and after the interview and the policy of behaviour that was explained to me just did not correlate. Other men have tried to make eye contact and smile of give me a napkin with a message on yeahhhhh I am not dead or boring,but bombastic, arrogant and so self absorbed just dont do it for me and no I have seriously not missed out on life,in fact I am a well travelled female and I am culturally aware.
