Help! I'm being hit on by a pedophile!

Mood: cynical

Listen...
I know when wearing baggy clothes I tend to look 16 or 17, if not even younger. I'm 22.
Dressed in major baggy clothes, I went to Barnes and Noble to do some sketching. Real life style practice is good for me.

Started drawing this one guy who's sitting in the cafe. Full color and everything. Turned out not too bad considering I was trying to do it pretty quickly and he moved a lot.

Then some guy comes in and sits about 2 tables away, starts drawing too. I smile at him and laugh a little at the coincidence.

I finish the drawing and pull it out of the noteook. The guy I was drawing turned around and commented that it was "pretty good". I'm not used to being confronted when drawing people at random, so I sputtered a bit, said thank you and told him he could have the drawing if he wanted it. He turned it down, saying he did the same sometimes.

The guy from a couple tables down then comes over and asks to sit at my table. Sure, no problem. We make some small talk. I have a summer job up here and am leaving soon, he's drawing a gitaur design and is an ironworker. He looks mid-thirties to fourties. Then he asks me if I'd like to go out sometime.

WTF? I look, if not am, half his age. I suppose I brought it on myself? Polite small talk results in me getting hit on by someone twice my age?

I politely turn him down. He makes some more nervous small talk then gets up and leaves.

Weird. I called Ashley and laughed about it on the way back to the K's house.

But really.
Is there something wrong with me? Am I only attractive to guys twice my age?
Good gods... I'd like a boyfriend...
But i'd also like it if he were relatively near my age group and someone I found attractive, both mentally and physically.
Don't get me wrong, it's not that I only go for really cute guys or anything, I just believe there should be physical attraction as well as mental for relationships to work. A guy and I could think just alike, but if there's zero chemistry there, I see no point dating. Ashley and I have had this conversation.
But really... Am I just not attractive to most guys my age? And is it a looks thing, or is it my personality?

*snickers*

I hope I don't get called in to work tomorrow. There's a chance I will, and I already put 42 hours in this week. Stupid rush to finish a ccle for BMI and SCICOM... And to prove Callidus is or is not doing what they've promised.

Geh...
Well, I picked up Cresent Moon volume 2 at B&N. I think I'll read that and crash.

LotF readers, I DO have the panels drawn, but not scanned colored or lettered. Sorry.
