Upon returning from a year in Holland, the Netherlands, I shared a condo with an old friend. We had gone out to a nightclub one evening, just to have a few drinks and listen to the band playing. My friend ran into a man she had known in the past and hadn't seen in years. Since they were just "friends", she introduced me to him. We talked for a while...he seemed friendly and 'normal'. He asked me if I'd like to go out sometime. I suggested that he come over to the condo and I would fix a steak dinner with all the trimmings. He agreed and we set the date.
On the evening of our date, I wore a black and white print dress and patterned black stockings with heels. I had everything prepared for dinner, except the steaks. I was waiting til he arrived to grill those. My date arrived right on time and we had a cocktail in the den while the steaks were cooking. We were having casual conversation when all of a sudden, out of the blue, this man asks me if he can wear my black stockings and polish my toenails! I was so shocked, I don't think I said anything for a moment...then I said, "No, I don't think so." He said, "O.K., it was just a suggestion."
We ate the steak dinner, which was perfect! Then I politely told him I had an early appointment the next morning and needed to go to sleep early. He left and I've never spoken to or seen him since.
