    "Don't be a heartbreaker!!"

    OK. These girls were neither sucky nor stupid, but what they said was just bizarre. I'd estimate they were 16-18.


    Me: Can I help you with anything?

    Girl 1: Oh....ah....no....we're all set *looks at my nametag*.............Dave......(to her friend) His name's Dave!!!!

    Now, it was busy, and once they said they were all set, I had already taken a step away since I had several other customers to get to, but the way she reacted to my name made me stop.

    Me: Yes, that's my name. Why?

    Girl 1: Oh, well, it's just that a guy named Dave just broke my heart. It seems like Daves do that.

    Me: Well, I wouldn't do that.

    (I did immediately regret saying that, since I realized it could conceivably be construed as coming on to her, though that wasn't my intention, and thankfully she didn't seem to take it that way)

    Girl 1: Oh.....ok...well, don't do that to anyone.

    Then they walked away.

    I went over to Jake - our technician - and related this story to him.

    Me: It's not like "Dave" is an uncommon name or anything; you can't paint us all with the same brush.

    He just found it hilarious.

    Not ten minutes later, I hear someone calling out across several aisles "DAVE!!!! DAVE!!!!"

    I looked up and saw these two running over.

    Me: Yes?

    Girl 1: Oh. we're checking out.

    Me:...........

    Girl 1: I just wanted you to know.

    Me: ..............

    Girl 1: Remember, don't be a heartbreaker!!

    Then they ran off.

    Again, I told this to Jake.

    Jake: Are they still here?

    I looked over towards the registers and saw them. They waved. I waved back.

    Me: Yeah, the two I just waved at.

    Jake: Did someone say "sweet statutory?" *laughs some more*


    Seriously though, that was just.............bizarre. I've never had anyone say something like that before.

    AdamAnt316 tells me that shortly after this happened (he works at the same store as me, remember) he found a piece of paper in one of the demo typewriters, and typed on it was "dave dont be a heartbreaker"

    That just makes this even more weird.

      Seeing as they appeared to be 16-18 they may be within the 14-16 age bracket, a 15 year old doing that doesn't appear that odd, as they're all wierd at that age!
      A PSA, if I may, as well as another.

        Eh, if they had called you "Bob" then that would have been me (with the exception that I don't have any gal pals to hang with currently).

          I did very similar things at that age, but just because I liked to freak people out. Maybe that's what they were trying to do.

          It can be lots of fun.

            What about being a dream maker, or a love taker?

            I'm sorry..I had to ask that question. The song popped into my head when I saw that line.

              Good point. That's probably all it was.

                Awwww. I used to behave like that when I had a crush and didn't know how to react.

                I'd try and be all cool, and be cringing inside the entire time.

                  I'd say either they were in that 14-16 age bracket and trying to freak you out, or they thought you were cute but too afraid to admit it. Sometimes teenage girls do weird things when they like guys.
                  Because as we all know, on the Internet all men are men, all women are men and all children are FBI agents.

                        Ya know Dave, my dad's name is Dav[id] too. If you and I ever met up, I'd probably call you Dad the entire time.
