This post is so spot on. For example, no sooner had I entered an Ulta store last Saturday, a woman about 30 rushed up to me. Uh oh, I thought. Now this is just inside the door, what does she... She LOVES my heels! They are cute medium-height black pumps I'm wearing with skinny jeans. Got them at Kohls, they're called Christinas, it's so warm today! Good day to be a bit sexier, etc. etc. I had a half-dozen other conversations like this--about my ring (like three times), my earrings, a different pair of shoes, it's so warm today!, etc. I have a lot to learn about likewise starting conversations with other women.

It felt great to be accepted. <br />PatioUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13515067841933524825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-44752539905752634292016-03-17T14:21:00.662-04:002016-03-17T14:21:00.662-04:00When I finally grew my hair out, I discovered the ...When I finally grew my hair out, I discovered the same thing happens at hair salons. It is one big conversation. The stylist next to mine was commenting on my hair, my stylist was breaking into the conversations next to her, women were commenting on my hair style, how cute it was, how it made me look younger, how it was was so light, etc. I was amazed. It was like a completely different world. The other thing that struck me was how supportive and affirming all the women were with each other. I loved it, and want to be part of such a world as much as possible!Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03739376283579811973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-40007941992959980832016-03-17T04:10:06.521-04:002016-03-17T04:10:06.521-04:00Yes, that's exactly what I'm missing.

It's hard to explain the difference in approach - but once through that glass dividing wall, I found a whole area of communication that I'd never experienced before with a woman (rather like being backstage in a theatre). I miss that a lot. <br />Michelle is so right - that kind of dialogue and the freedom to talk to strangers is entirely absent in the male world.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
