FabSwingers.com forum: Talk to people like they've got a cute puppy....

....so I've been out today with my girl and our 13 week old puppy (who happens to be exceptionally cute in a tiny,scruffy, fluffy kind of way). Pretty much everyone we passed stopped to talk and ask questions or at least smiled at us with genuine happiness. Maybe 40 or so ppl over the day and it was really pleasant....!

Usually we go completely unnoticed and nobody would even look up or acknowledge us let alone smile or make conversation....

So my fab friends, I'd like to suggest maybe have a think when you're passing someone normal looking (without a cute puppy) in the street or wherever you are and just flash them a quick smile or say hello and make their day a little brighter....

Hope you're all having a fab Saturday

Much love

Nip x

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon

Already do smile and greet strangers.... It's pretty normal living in this town.

Felt weird for the first few months after moving from London though.

But yay, Nippy! Good call

I wish I could but I think it would be a little weird to approach them with the same energy I would if they had a puppy!! I'd definitely scare them a little.

I do like to smile at people though and occasionally say hello!

I remember taking my doggo for a walk as a puppy. A lab too, so everyone would go bananas and stop to talk.

My work sent me a bunch of plain white masks the other day and my girl and I drew all sorts of funny mouths on them with a black marker - some are proper scary but we're gonna use them.....

I've got the cute grin down.

No being a bit more serious, people in my town often say hello when out walking etc. There's a really a nice community spirit and smiling is infectious I think.

I don't think I've ever seen your cute grin.... I can live in hope!

In that respect I wish I lived further north, ppl are so internal down here and I think we invented self isolation before the damn virus....

Dogs are unbelievable for going on the pull (obviously not at a nightclub or anything like that).

I was walking the dog round the local park one day and passed a group of women doing one of these fitness sessions they do there. When they saw us coming they started going "Isn't he lovely!" and "He's so adorable!" etc., obviously referring to the dog. I just grinned at them and pretending they meant me I said "Thank you. I do a good massage too," and gave them a flirty look. I got a good laugh from that.

Dogs are a good ice-breaker.

I'd heard about dogs being fanny magnets but my little April has had more success in a few weeks than this old bugger has in over 40 years....
