So the dumbest thing happenned to me the other day. I was in Waldenbooks scoping the bargain section, which is something I do from time to time, but this was the first time I did it in a Waldenbooks. I usually go to Barnes & Nobles, they have a much bigger selection! Anyhow, I find this one book that catches my eye... "A Guide to Better Sex". Unbelievable book. It's got photos, not illustrations, of different positions, tips on different kinds of techiniques, info about contraceptive methods, the male & female body, etc. so on so forth. Everything you would expect from such a book with real pictures! Mind you, I am neither a perv or inadequate at performing. Ok, so maybe the photos are arousing, so what. And the tips and new positions could come in useful. But I don't need to explain myself, on with the story. So I'm excited about my new find but slightly embarassed to go to the register person to pay for it. Yes, I'm grown, I'm 22 years old, I shouldn't be embarassed, but I was. I look over at the register, no one was there, but I muster up the courage to go over there finally to pay for the $9.99 book. And to my surprise, a complete hottie, a Jared Leto lookalike, walks over to the register. Even more embarassed than before, I painfully try to keep a straight face but it was obvious, I was blushing. He cooly tells me, "Don't be embarassed, everyone should own one of these." Not knowing what to say, I responded like the biggest dork on the planet, "It's a bargain!" After that, I said no more and continued to unsuccessfully hold a straight face. We finish up at the register, he says "Enjoy!" with a slight smirk, I thank him and run off cheesing like a teenage girl thinking to myself that I should have asked him out. But how awkward would that have been...

"So, uh, wanna try out some of these positions with me sometime?"

At least I'm well on my way to being an even better lover. Maybe we'll bump into each other again. Or maybe not.


Hence, my latest obsession with Jared Leto.

haha. awww roxy.

Ask the people in the store if he is a regular?

hahaha sound like soemthing that would happen to me

LOL "a guide to better sex"

xD . What would've been weird if your crush saw you buying that lol I'll be very embarrassed if that HAPPENED LOL xD

You're so cute Roxanne xD

Oh my god i'm listening to 30 seconds to mars right now!
Matt got me addicted.

But, sure, everyone should own one. Why not? -shrug- I just need to wait a few years till I can go shopping for something like that.

Hahahahaa Awwww. How cute! I agree with Jackie though. Ask if he's a regular :O

And mmmm....Jared Leto.

But seriously tho. How do you try to hit on someone after you just bought a better sex guide from them. He has to have had a really funny impression of me by then and asking him out would have been the most awkward thing to do ever. But would it have been worse if he had asked me out? lol.

Perhaps, but he also may have admired your...enthusiasm towards bettering yourself in an unconventional way. I don't know, but just hearing about him makes ME giggle. If you see him again, try and ask him out. Or at least start some small talk. If he looks like Jared Leto, it's worth it

haha
wow, thats the first thing I've probably ever read on here that actually made me laugh out loud. Would have been rather weird for you to ask him out or something, but hey hes right everyone should own a book like that

haha wow, great story.
I'd be embarassed too....

And he looks like Jared Leto?! Whaaaa? Go back, now. A good way to start convo is to ask him about any books he reccommend you read. That usually leads to spin off convos pertaining to each others interest, and from there, who knows!

HAHAHA. I love you, Roxanne. a;dhgd;fhg I DIDN'T KNOW YOU LIKED JARED LETO. When I met him, he thought I was a hooker or something. Either that, or, well okay that's not really relevant. Hahaha.

^^^ YOU MET HIM!!! Where? When? I'm jealous. Yes, I'm in love. He's absolutely flawless, he's a great actor, a lead singer of an awesome band, what's there not to love?

*dies*

I'd be scared to death to even touch a book like that in public.

Yeah I met him after one of his shows back in March on the Forever Night Never Day Tour. I was up front and in the very middle. It was rather humorous, considering he'd stand on the divider I was leaning against quite often and would uhh well straddle me, so if I ever looked up, I would see his crotch. And when I met Shannon, he said he remembered seeing me in the crowd!

Haha..that made my day. I was literally loling

I would've been so embarassed..it totally seems these types of situations usually happen with the hot guys - it definitely wouldn't have been the same with an ugly guy

LOL Oh god.. I hadn't even noticed that.

Roxy, that is such a cute story! :D Sadly, what I'd end up doing is just casually walk in there and browse every once in a while.. At work, I have a tendency to chat it up with the regulars, so maybe he'd do the same thing. =x

Ha ha, I agree.

Well, I would probably get scolded from the bookowners if I ever did that at my age, so I wouldn't know anything about how that's like...

You could ask the emplyees to give you his name, Waldenbooks keeps most of their customers on their computer. Although it would be kind of hard to get the right guy ...

Hahahahahahah!!! I remember this!

Don't kill me for bumping up an old topic but I thought this would be great for giggles.


And to update you guys on what's happenned since then... I've returned to the bookstore a few times and even recently, but unfortunately, I never saw him again after this incident. But I still think of him everytime I even walk by that place... I guess its going to stand in time as a missed opportunity. *sigh*

As for the book, I actually didn't find it useful for more than the explicit photos, unfortunately. But to be honest, the photos aren't even that arousing, the models are hardly attractive. Parts of the book are actually quite disturbing (i.e. there's a section on fetishes and one of them include crossdressing and there's even a picture of a guy wearing fishnet stockings ). One plus is that I've improved at flexing my kegel muscles with some new exercises I learned and the results have been good...


Uhhhh.... yeahhhhhh.

Awwww Kegel exercises. ROFL

You're so much fun, Roxanne. :)

aww, haha. thats kinda funny and cute at the same time.

Hahaha, "It's a bargain!" Aw, if I was that dude, I would've thought that was the cutest thing ever, haha.

i love there 20% off discounts. it could off been alot cheaper ...but aww your that type of girl lol.

How could I forget the Jared lookalike!

awww..that such a funny story!!! if i ever saw that kind of book i'll probably just walk away & pretend i never saw that book.
