Strange Reaction

[Sandy Banks]

Went out in Halloween attire last night, while buying gas an old man in a pick-up truck was filling up and refused to look at me. No one was with him either. What do you think about his behavior? Isn't his reaction kind of unexpected?

[GaleWarning]

I think it was the horns which bothered him!!!

[famousunknown]

He 'refused' to look at you? That could mean anything.

[Sandy Banks]

Do you think I "scared the devil' out of him????:devil::devil::devil:

[Beverley Sims]

He probably thought his time had come.
"Don't make eye contact with the devil". :)

[sissystephanie]

As has been said, "don't make eye contact with the devil!" You were wearing horns!!

Well I can't tell how big you are from the picture and I sure don't know how big or old and physically challenged the man was so I can only guess. He saw a "Horny Gal" and wasn't about to become a target for Beldazar or terriblily embarrassed from fear of an overly sexy gurl! So not strange just cautious.

Most people don't make eye contact with anyone when filling their gas tank. Very nice devil outfit.

Hi Sandy,

It could be he did not know how to respond, it could be he was pre-occupied with which beef jerky to get, or it could be he was realizing he had to fill up his pick up truck and did the math on the cost gas. It could be worse...he could have been a pest. Other peoples behavior is exactly that. Their behavior, not yours.

It could be he was doing his best to be polite and overlooking what "should not" be there as he was raised to believe.

he might have just been in a trance, HESE OLD :)

[Cynthia Anne]

Perhaps he thought you were his wife and he'd been caught out again!!!!!!!

[CD_Mika]

I think it's because he was an older man. That's definitely not the kind of think you saw in his day. You were just proof of an ever-changing world and it probably spooked him. Doesn't help that it was devil horns either. If he was a Christian man that would be like the straw that broke the camels back in morally unjust for him, Halloween or not.

As rule I don't gawk at women when I fueling my car...its just impolite, I wait until they can't see me, then I look!

[donnatracey]

I can't tell if Sandy is being serious or not. I never look at other people while filling up; too busy cleaning the windows, watching the pump meter spin, etc.

I think that's it. Most people mind their own business. I have made eye contact with people at a gas station in the past and then they have walked up and asked for money or gas on my credit card.

I just mind my own business anymore. Pump and go.

A typical phobic, ostrich in the sand reaction to seeing something he didn't understand.

Wait, you're bothered by a non-reaction? Honey, if that's the worst thing you ever run into ... well, you know what I'm saying. Let it go gurl.
