Tricking you into taking flowers and then trying to charge for them is already a Whole Thing, too. Not that that makes what they did any better, but this specific behavior sets off "scam" alarm bells for me.
- sva_ 4y agoI mean they've been doing that in Paris for quite some time when you're walking with someone. 'What you don't want to buy roses for 50 euro? Is your girlfriend not worth it to you?' Luckily my girlfriend told the guy to put his roses some place I may not mention here.
- corrral 4y agoHaha, Paris was exactly what I was thinking of. "Pretty lady, flower for you! You want flower? Flower for you, pretty flower for a pretty lady," pressing the flower toward the woman as if trying to give it away for free, and then if she takes it, "that'll be [insane price for a flower]", hand out for payment, and resisting taking it back. Your best policy in public in a major city is to internalize Tony Stark's strong aversion to being handed things.
- JetAlone 4y agoSounds to me like your girlfriend is worth having self-respect for.
