Do your husband look at you the way that I am looking at your right now? My response: Of course not, both of my husband's eyes go in the same direction.

Ohh boy, I just answered a question like this. Easiest way to deal with it is to just roll your eyes and make a rude remark back and they usually leave you alone. I've known one line since I was little-- "I forgot my library card, but can I still check you out?"
I've never heard it in person though, because I'm not in the library a lot, lol.
Another is-- "Are you tired? Because you've been running through my mind all day."
At least you get a laugh out of these. I only laugh because I think they're pathetic, but it's still laughable!

Sometimes it is sincere and said in a non-leering way. Once I was coming out of the grocery store by my work and a man told me I had beautiful legs. He said it in a matter-of-fact, appreciative way--well, it made my day and I told him so. That was the end of it.
It's when things are said in a sleazy way or when they are so stupid that I have a problem. For example, one guy told me he would "wash my back." WTH? Or "You're so pretty, I'd follow you anywhere." Don't follow me! But the worst is when strange men honk at me while I'm walking to the bus. Just how is that supposed to help me out? Why do they do that anyway???

Honestly, I think some of them are funny. I think, or I sincerely hope, most guys are just trying to break the ice, and make me laugh; I don't think they're serious.
Cute one: I was in Foot Locker, and one of the guys that worked there just popped up, and said "Excuse me, were you talking to me?" I said, no. He said, "Well, then, please start."
Common one: the "Do I know you?" line. Knowing damn well they've never laid eyes on me..
Worst one: "Hey, you work for UPS? Because I could've swore I saw you checking out my package."

At a bar, I heard, "Hey, has anyone told you that you could be a model?" I rolled my eyes and told him to move on to someone dumber.

"your eyes are so bright and beautiful, when I look at them, I get excited, I just want to pee on myself."
