Watch me work?

Recommended Posts

A lady that I have recently been keeping company with actually said, "I'd like to watch you work on a model." after seeing some of my finished builds. Frankly, I'm MYSTIFIED by this. I imagine that it would be like watching paint dry. I was able to talk my late wife into building a model in (I think) 1988, when we were dating and she was 18. Can someone explain this request from a woman in her late 40s? I reckoned that a woman of that age would know better.

What she is asking is will you share your interest with her. She wants to be part of your life and to bond with you. It may not be the most exciting thing that you can think of, but to her, she loves to spend time with you and she wants to be part of your life...

Craig, I believe Marshall may have hit the nail on the head, hey I would GO for it, who knows she just might get the bug and want to build her own!! ;)

Yep. And don't try to use it as a teaching experience. Just do your thing and let her ask questions if she wants.

Had a friend who's girlfriend turned into his wife after many years of dating. She didn't know much more than how to put gas in her car. She started hanging around Jim, traded her 300ZX for a Camaro, and became a car nut like him and into the car hobby too! She has talked him out of selling some of his collection, stating SHE is too attached to see it go!

Take it at face value Craig- she wants to spend time with you and see what it is about model building that you like and enjoy. As others have said, maybe she just wants to learn and start building herself! You might be able to get some nice fingernail polish from her for some cool paint jobs! :lol:
