A woman followed me off the subway, and quitly asked me if she could come home with me. Since I live with my Girlfriend, I had to walk away. She was about 40 and still had a few good miles left in her, but i'm thinking what the hell?

I'm not sure if she was thrown out by her boyfreind, looking for a good time, or looking for work....... I'm not a bad looking guy, but I also don't look wealthy.

Has anyone had similar experiances in Seoul?

You know, it's odd that 40 year old woman wants to take him home, and it's odd that he can't spell woman. but it starts to make sense if you assume he is 8 years old.

Or maybe a Korean student trying to bait poor unsuspecting English teachers into producing comments that will be used reproduced ad nauseum during the next witch-hunt.

Now that I think of it, in what some may view as synchronicity, I had some guy on the subway try to get me to explain the term "cuckold".

I had a rather strange experience last summer (and I can spell womens reel good...) involving a Korean English teacher. There are only two high schools in small town I live in, and my summer teaching duties included a daily two-hour class at the school I that usually don't teach at. The head Korean English teacher there seemed nice, appeared to be in her mid-30s, and was very enthusiastic about finally getting a native English teacher there. After a couple days she repeatedly invited me to visit her home (which she told me was located right near the school...) after matter-of-factly informing me that she was married, but that her husband worked in another city...(I briefly envisioned a potential "R-rated" scene, but I figured that she wasn't hot enough to risk losing my job and getting deported over - adultury being technically illegal in Korea...)

The next day, I couldn't help but notice that she was tagging along beside me on my fifteen-minute walk home. She told me that she wanted to take me to "French Craippe" place that was near where I lived (though I told her that I couldn't eat eggs...) We must have encountered about twenty students that knew us - between her classes and mine - and some of them were whistling and hooting it up and making what I thought were a few rude comments directed at us...I definitely wasn't comfortable with that kind of public image as a teacher, and I (more-or-less) hoped that she wouldn't follow me home after the cafe stop... She did though, but I left the apartment door open and just bored her with some "shop talk" till she excused herself and left...(I later informed my English dept. head about what transpired, including the students reaction, but he seemed only mildly concerned and just said "never mind, don't worry...")

A woman followed you home hey?

My advice- You're going to need a bigger freezer.
