First Impressions

Women dont like me. Most of them that is.
I of course knew this fact since a while back, but it dint matter so much then. for one, i thought maybe i was just over analysing it and so on or that it was isolated incidents.
but.
women dont like me. period.
i am talking strictly first impressions here. they are not friendly, they are simply polite and most of them make it obvious, and i dont make any efforts to get them to like me too.
so we are quite even.
there are some times rarely when i do like someone and i make a lot of effort and it pays off.all my closest friends are girls from college days and we have stuck together for a long time and they will vouch for the fact that i make more than just a decent friend.
i take trouble when it matters but its all very rare.
in any case
i recently found out that the women i work with dont like me.
the couple of girls who have been here before i landed still stick togethere like glue. which is ok.
but there are these women. older.women. supposedly proffessional.
one of them just stares and stares at me.
she gets up from the place where her ass is to be parked as soon as i come in, move to the corner where her other proffesional friend sits, and just stares and each time i catch her eye she doesnt reallly look away.
now, tired i stare at her right back upon which she gives me this bland wide icky smile.
every time a guy comes and talks to me, there she is at it again.
speaking of which, the men.
with whom i get along simply well.zimbly. they are normal, they dont stare! they look obviously but thats what they do. right?
i am sure there is a reason for this, one of which i have discovered.
i tend to find male humor and jokes never offending.and the couple of times they ventured out with some all i did was laugh instead of cringe in unison with my species!
i swear a lot. not quite the sailor sorts but comfortably enough.
this must be it?
i am probably not proclaiming my unity to my side in big boring gossip and joining the shop till you drop, who is having what sale talks!
not that i dislike gossip, am all for it, but its so hard here esp when i find them so predictably similair in discussion and conversation and every damn thing!

pS: First impressions of earth is a song by The Strokes
They have also performed with Regina spektor ( who i louw) btw,and recorded this awesome song: Modern girls and Old fashioned men.

I have this theory. Only few women understand men (simple as they may be ;-)) and men are also comfortable with some women only (they probably like all women, but you know what i mean). So when you fall into both categories, you are doomed to be disliked by women. Cos they always have to put up a face while you can be just you and get attention all the same (may be more). I personally think its not such a bad thing after all. What say?

p.s. Did you try snarling at that woman with the icky smile?

p.p.s.: I kind of like you on first impressions, if that helps!
