So how did you respond?

Sense of humor test. Might as well weed 'em out right off the bat, huh?

It was a moment I'd like to have back. :evil: But, it totally caught me off guard, literally the first thing out of her mouth and, as I got to know her, it became funnier because she is lifelong military, military family, in your lane person all the way and I think it would have embarrassed her? :lol: In any event, this one is going in the buddy column because she loves to ride and is a nice person and has her own scooter. The problem is how to be nice about it because I wasn't feeling it at the end of the day and I think she was.

How do I handle this, Lucy?

Punch her in the face, and she'll never want to have a relationship with you.

And I can totally seeing being buds and calling her saying "Hey, let's go for a ride!" We talked about routes first and she was 100%. I took her on the good stuff I like (top shelf, world class, back roads, up, down, sideways) and at a pace fairly close to how I ride. She was right behind me all day. Chick can golf her ball. So to speak.
 
When I need help with being an ### hole, I'll ask for it. :diva:

Aholes have to stick together!

I was over on Solomons with the 'Wing, getting ready to ride out. A bunch of drunk women came out of what is now the Striped Rock, I didn't pay much mind. Until I heard "...a ride from that motorcycle guy over there..."

I looked up and saw them all smiling at me. Caught me completely off guard. My response WOULD normally have been to hold out my spare helmet, but dontcha know I had taken it out of the saddlebag earlier that day to make room for something else. I was ticked as they all walked by one by one and I didn't have any options....

Moral: Don't leave home without it. A spare helmet, that is...

Why's she going in the buddy column if you like her? Is she ugly?

She's not a raving beauty nor is she ugly. It's not an appearance thing. I said I wasn't 'feeling it'. That happens with attractive women. In fact, it is far more likely to happen with attractive women because an 'ugly' woman can be charming and attractive in all sorts of ways and a 'beauty', at my age, I can tell in five minutes if she's not my style. Appearance count but, what's under the hood matters a lot more at this point in my life. I am not going to spend 5 minutes with some porn queen looking thing that isn't a good person nor is incapable of conversation.

Trying to put my finger on it, I think it is the conversation thing. We had lunch and then hung out some after the ride. Maybe it was just nerves but, you know me, I had her talking up a storm and, well, it wasn't very satisfying.

"Officer, some summbytch stole her helmet. Just trying to get her home."

Why do men say things like that? A woman can be charming, witty and intelligent but if she looks like Yoko Ono you're not going to get past that to find out. If she has an ass the size of an aircraft carrier, you won't be pulled in by her sparkling personality.

Just admit that looks matter and then we can move on.

Looks matter.

Not as much as other things.

Looks are not the issue here.

She's got a nice figure, not overweight at all. Cute butt, takes care of herself. Nice hooters, not too damn big, from what a couple hugs could tell through leather. Nice lips. Cute hair.

So, you tell me, on a first date, how much should conversation matter?
