I just got off the #80 bus half an hour ago and this is an apology to the cute girl (red hair, pink nails) who sat across from me. I don’t know if you were upset about the old guy next to you (beard, no moustache, bowling shoes) who tried to give you some Christian pamphlet or the texts you were getting but I’m sorry that I had no way to tell you not to cry and that whatever is going on or going wrong with you will pass. I am married and twice your age so this ain’t no come on, I just wish there was something I could have done or said. —Myself

  1. “married and twice your age” – That’s profiling Painey and that’s just wrong >: )
    Not I, I’m afraid.
    Don’t second guess yourself OP and don’t sell yourself short either. Sometimes it’s the well intentioned small gestures that can make all the difference.

  2. This is really nice! I’m sure she would have appreciated the gesture. I hope so. But you never know with kids these days.

  3. Hey well if you are too old OP, I totally have a thing for young girls in pigtails 😉 Your loss. I’ll cheer her up

  4. I didn’t say she wore pigtails or how young she was and somehow I think you’re lacking what she needs.

  5. It was a very generous sentiment, OP. Sigh, sometimes you can feel really alone, even surrounded by peeps on a bus. I hope she reads this.
