[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 410674, member: 1233"] Beth, it is time to tell the friend that the geezer is a creep. Itsounds like she is trying to get you to date this guy. That is what HER comments say to me. I am not sure why she would think that you would have any interest in a man in his sixties, esp not one who is an alcoholic with bad manners. Chances are he is pressuring her to urge you to "date" him. It is time to tell him that you are not interested in him at all. It is also time to tell your friend that she may think he is a great guy, but you do not think that someone who gets very drunk and then calls women that he does NOT know well to discuss his genitals and what he wants to do with them is a great guy. Be blunt iwth her. Ask if SHE would enjoy being woken up by a drunk old man who is calling to "share" the state of his all-togethers with her and to ask her to "share" them with him? If she thinks that this is appropriate behavior then tell her to give him her phone number - and let her know that if he calls you again you will give him her number and tell him to call her. AS for calling people Hon or sweetie or whatever, It is pretty common around here. The lady at the self serve gas station calls me Sweetie. It isn't uncommon here. I only get annoyed when someone thinks it is an invitation for sex. One day I had a bunch of errands to run to places I visited often - where I was sure people knew my name. In an entire day of errands the only time I was addressed as anything other than "hon" or "sweetie" or "sugar" or whatever was when I went into the school to get thank you. And there they called me "thank you's mom", lol!!! [/QUOTE]
