"She kept touching me as she talked. I forgave her for that."
Salesmen/Saleswomen know a pat on the back or a touch on the arm can be very disarming. When a stranger touches me purposefully I cannot help but scrutinize the "why?".
- icantdrive55 10y agoMe too. A few years ago, I fell for it. Now--the tip goes down.
- tyingq 10y agoPretty bold of a salesperson to grab your forearm, or other obviously flirtatious moves though. Might even risk the opposite of the intended effect. Is that common, or is it usually more subtle, like touching your hand when passing a pen?
- tunap 10y agoA touch on the forearm is what I`ve experienced most from saleswomen, a breast press on my arm has occurred more than once. Always* during a negotiation when I was the prospective buyer. *Excluding social interactions.
- romanovcode 10y agoThey touch you to make you feel something when they say the words. The pros even touch you at a specific words in their sentence so you subconsciously remember those words.
- nommm-nommm 10y agoUhhh...I find pats on the back from strangers to be incredibly rude, patronizing, and uncomfortable. Do that to me and I'm likely to just walk away but not before saying "don't touch me."
