I have a different problem.

Because of my shy, retiring nature I find that I attract bossy women who think they can walk all over me. They’re the kind who are convinced that I’m in need of (and will happily accept) attitudinal reconstruction.

But the babes I adore think I’m a wuss!

There must be a way out of this dillema, though as yet I haven’t a clue what it is.

Apparently it's all your fault.

If you figure out WHY this happens, please let us know. I have the same problem.

Wear a big, bulky backpack. Sit at a table for two. Set the backpack on the other chair. If someone has the gall to try to move it, get extremely offended.

Only one response can work. At the first comment, say, “I’m reading.” Then return to your book.

No, wearing a sign or a shirt won’t work. Possibly sititng in a booth might, but then it would have to be dark enough so they can’t see you and then you wouldn’t be able to read.

I just fake the fact that I didn’t hear them the first time, so they have to repeat themselves. Then I do the “I’m sorry, this book is so good I can’t put it down.” And keep that up until they get the idea. If they are really desperate they’ll keep talking, that’s when you get rude because you have every right to (at least in MY opinion).

Actually, that sort of thing happens to me whenever I’m out in public reading. It doesn’t matter where I’m at either.

I’m thinking of carrying a large sign that reads: “I’m Reading. Leave me the F*ck Alone!”

Would that finally work? Maybe, maybe not, but then at least if they do bother me I have something nice, heavy, and sturdy to smack ‘em with. XD
