So there we are in the Art Gallery. Not my choice as a meeting place, dare I say it ‘first date’.
“So what do you think?” he asks.
I think it’s crap but I bottle that feeling. Apart from this
arty side, there is a lot going on with this fella. Think conversations beyond monosyllables and an
ability to dress well.
I improvise.
“It’s fascinating this portrayal of relationship between
postmodern discourse and Jungian archetypes.”
He nods approvingly.
“The viewer is left with an insight into dialectics of lust in
our culture.”
He grins sheepishly, “I thought it was crap”.
The silly season is here again with this post. I am back after a break and what could be another break for a couple of weeks. If you have been afraid to comment, this is your last chance. Blogger does not bite I am told. To visit the other artists this week click here.

DeleteDear Subroto,
ReplyDeleteYou made me laugh out loud. Men are basic. Love it.
Shalom,
Rochelle
We are simple but elegant creatures ;-) Thanks for your appreciation Rochelle.
Deletehonesty is the best policy non?
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed. Thanks for your comments Bettina.
DeleteI love to see things brought back down to earth. Fun story.
ReplyDeleteBack to reality :-) Thanks for your comments Lindy I am glad you liked it.
DeleteHa, I think he's a keeper. Fun story.
ReplyDeletePlus he knows his art. Thanks for your comments Gabi.
DeleteYeah. It was crap.
ReplyDeleteI am glad we agree then. Thanks for reading and commenting James.
DeleteBest to go with one's first reaction, right?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. Thanks for your comments Tresha.
DeleteHa! I have to say I was biased against her already because I think an art exhibit is a terrific first date, even if the art is crap, because in discussing the art, you get a good idea of the person you're speaking with. When she made up her mind to fake pretentiousness that sealed my opinion. His response however was pure gold - loved it. He deserves someone who can be genuine, or this relationship is going nowhere.
ReplyDeletePerhaps his honesty will set the tone for the relationship. Thanks for your comments Rommy.
DeletePsychoanalysis of 1930s shoe art in a Freudian perspective.
ReplyDeleteLoved your take on this one.
Thanks YS I am glad you liked it.
DeleteThis is so funny. Don't be afraid to be yourself. The other guy might be just like you. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteThanks Yuhu I am glad you liked it.
DeleteThat got a laugh out loud from me! That was great. Looks like he's definitely a keeper... or at least worthy of a second date...
ReplyDeleteWait till she asks "does my ... look big in this?" question. Thanks for you comments Dale I am glad it made you laugh.
DeleteI think I heard a “click”!
ReplyDeletePhew! No swipe left then?
DeleteThanks for your comments Dawn.
In relationships, I think honesty is best. After all, why invest in a relationship that doesn't fit. An interesting take ont he photo prompt.
ReplyDeleteIsadora 😎
