Inappropriate or not?

[Merlion@ 0]

I have never experienced this...the hello/good-bye kiss is not only male initiated...it happens at random, by whoever is leaving first, or whoever leans in first. What does this woman being French have anything to do with this situation? I wasn't aware that the French practice any different hello/goodbye kissing that what is done in Romania...except perhaps that "embrasse moi" is stated before the kissing rather than "hai sa te pup".

I think it varies from region to region. In my experience it's the male who initiates it. He kissed me out of kind of not knowing what to do, not b/c he really wanted to. I see that you know some Romanian

But what about his?

his...weirdness? Which "his"? My his or OP's his?

[Minya's wife 25]

If someone we only just met tried to come dancing with us, I think we'd both think "get away, annoying lady". But I wouldn't blame my husband for her weirdness. lol.

But don't you think it depends on the context. I've been to large new years parties, where the dancing is done in one big group on the dance floor, so anyone can join at any time...and it sounds like this was the case here as well. I wouldn't blame my husband either if some leggy French chick wanted to dance with him...but I would draw the line at junk grabbing...THAT is inappropriate, unless we were in scotland and he was wearing a kilt.

at the time when she joined, it was just me and him dancing. there were other people in a circle, but when she actually join with her husband it was just me and my husband. anyways, it's already too much detail. i think i'll eventually get over it.

Wait a minute....

You mean if I'm in Scotland it's perfectly ok for strange women to come up to me and grab my junk?

Mebbe I should move to Scotland......

Now you're piqued my curiosity...which region would you be referring to? Maybe this was a kind of "you had to be there" to see situation...because the way you've described it does not strike me as inappropriate...and definitely not meriting your continued upset w/ your husband 3 days past the event, especially since he has apologized.

they have ugly sheep, so it's not gonna happen.

The OP's.

[Calypso 464]

Back to the main point, it seems that the OP started this thread to validate her reactions. She wants to justify her angst. If we tell her that what she feels is right, her feelings would intensify and she might not talk to her husband for more than three days.

Anyway, I couldn't care less but I hope both of them get to fix this quick. There's more to 2011 than starting it with what has been done and may not even have any meaning.

Happy new year, Merlion!

Was there any dry humping involved?

I was going w/ what Amby said about greeting practices in scotland...if you do move there, lemme know fer sure if that is indeed the case. I've always wanted to go visit and wouldn't want to offend by not knowing local customs.

Moldova and Transilvania are different. In my family I was raised conservative, but others in other places can be more open (sort of toward West). This is how it is percived that people toward West are more open due to Western influence. So, I see Hungary in your profile. People from the cities neighboring Hungary or the cities influenced by the Austro-Hungarian empire may be more open, which could explain her making the move coupled with some wannabe French.

Was there any dry humping involved?

No. I think overall was okay, except for the good-bye. I still have her number and e-mail but have no intent to contact her.

I think I will google "dry humping customs" to see if that's normal anywhere...I'll report back

Hopefully she didn't slip it to him too.
