An NSV in NYC

Hey everyone! Just wanted to post something that happened to me while shopping in NYC. I was with my best friend and we were walking down 5th Avenue. We're stopped at a crosswalk and a man taps me on the shoulder and says...

"Excuse me miss. I don't typically do this but I really feel I need to tell you something."

Of course, I'm thinking something terrible...food in teeth, split my pants...whatever.

He says, "I've walked the streets in Manhattan my entire life and I have to tell you that you're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen"

HELLO!!??? I haven't had a compliment from other than my husband in years! My friend said I was smiling so wide she thought my face would crack! I LOVE NEW YORK!!:grouphug:

That's a nice compliment but just be weary of people, especially in NY...lots of wackos. Being born and raised in NY it's kind of a defense you build up over the years...but you're from Jersey so I'm sure you know. It's always nice to get compliments in any event.

That just gave me a chuckle. LOL!!! Yeah, being from the NY/NJ area, it's just natural to be wary of people. I just said thank you and kept walking. But heck, I'll take a compliment...even if it comes from a whacko!!!:welldone2:
