I just went to buy some flowers and there was this voluptuous chick, an 8-9 maybe, bent over in the doorway, arranging flowers, I said good evening, she answered the same but didn't move out the way.
And then said to her mother who I guess owns the store :" You see mom, why I don't have a man yet?"
It took me a while to get what she meant, but I felt it was too late to give a witty answer, at least to make a joke, was afraid to seem awkward.
I at least could have said "I could be you man, but I'm taken so, we'll have towork it out somehow"
Bear in mind, her mother was in the store.
What would you have said to make it playful?
