Quote: “She didn’t even seem to mind the answer”. Yup. They rarely try to talk you into it. But if they ever do, tell them you’ve got a used oil filter you’ll need them to hang onto for a bit the next time you’re in the garage. LOL

I was just researching this topic on my own, because I was asked exactly same question just this past weekend. I was asked this question many times before and always had this gut feeling that this it was wrong. This time I just knew it was a shit test, so I immediately refused.

This is clear as water in situations where there are so many convenient surfaces to place the purse on. There was a table at hands reach and this is a friendly situation, nobody is going to run up and grab it. There was also a clean floor right next to her. There was a couch 3 feet away. I mean if you had to place something somewhere, there was room there.

All she had to was just put her coat on. And she was like “can you hold my purse?”. I had this WTF look on my face. I said “No, what do I look like?”. She didn’t even seem to mind the answer, as if she was expecting this response. She just asked her girlfriend instead.

This happened to a friend (you know I’m taken so this isn’t an oblique “friend of a friend” self-reference, LOL):

He’s with a few friends in the bar, and they chat up a group of attractive ladies. A couple of his friends end up on the dance floor with said ladies, and he ends up talking one-on-one to the last one. She asks him “hey, can you watch my stuff?”

He thinks she’s going off to the bathroom, and obliges. A few minutes later he spots her on the dance floor, grinding with another man.

Argh.
