No one's explained to me why my wife would be jealous over me talking to a gay clerk at a store.


ok
the no returns between 8-9p sounds like he was playing with you, being friendly, maybe even flirting.
she may understand that there would never be anything between you and the clerk, same situation as if a female clerk had been flirting with you, but she still might be a bit jealous. Especially since you were flirting back talking about your biceps
 
Dude, you were one step away from a menage a trois. You were just going about it the wrong way.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
 
maybe she just didn't like the guy? I dunno. Just because a person doesn't mind gays, doens't mean he/she has to love each and every one of them...

😕

Yeah, he said it with a straight face too. If you didn't know better you would have thought he was serious.

Working retail like that can get old...if you let it. Having worked at American Eagle, I should know 🙂. We would have a blast by joking around with the costumers. I actually laughed out load when I read that the clerk said that. My boss and I would say the same thing, except "between 3:00 and 3:01" or something along the lines. And we'd only do it to the cute girls. Lol. So consider yourself lucky? (or not?) Hehe. Anyways, that sucks about your wife bashing him. Sexual Education needs to be taught at a younger age and with a more broader range of topics. We are one of the most open countries when it comes to sex, but yet we almost feel like we need to keep homosexuality under the wraps from kids? Lack of knowledge is ignorance. Ignorance leads to hate.

Tolerance is key.


Edit: I thought I'd point out my 1234 post count 😉 Look at it and enjoy before I post again!

Not all gay men are effeminate, so that's how I differentiate.

Hell, some hetero guys are swishy for that matter!

When I was in hs I worked at this small local supermarket on the weekends. There was this dude who came in there fairly often who was beyond flamer. Dude would have made Liberace blush. Turns out he was straight, married, and his wife was nails. Go figure *shrugs*
 
My wife has at times been very jealous of gay men paying "too much attention" to me (as she put it). I take it as a compliment. 😛
