He has always been the best part of the rangers or flyers. That man has no filter.

G,

It is a bit of a play on words. Doux is the sweetest of all champagnes, which I am partial to. I do like to serve my champagne with a pun or two as well. Hence my command of the somewhat misspoken phrase. If you're talking about a smooth talker and a phrase people actually use, I do believe its is beau-parleur. And contrary to what LH might suggest, plenty of women won't go for this type of approach regardless of other attributes. It tends to be very hit or miss and quickly so. Quite a few women prefer the demi sec man to the doux.

I think I might be slightly uncultured. I think I might be a Demi sec woman.

However, I bet when this approach does work, it works WELL!

You’ve mastered the art of romance thrown in with some funny and the triple 6’s.

Forget 3% man. You are a 1% man!

Most people in the USA are more likely to like the sweets.. Its our diet..
Go to Europe, not so much. Its frowned upon as sugar is added to get "sweetness" like some here like.
I say, drink what the hell you like, its your palate.
Red with fish, who cares.. Its my dinner I am paying for..
Make her laugh, and we all have a good time..

Sometimes referred to as a used car salesman. Of course it depends on the delivery but these types are often found outside of dating as well - in business, certainly in politics and most often on the used car lot.

Ugggg! That should have been included. It’s obvious in hindsight yet I somehow missed it. Correct you are Spiral.

Or perhaps I have a different definition of a 1%er. Or I’m not as gullible as some. In truth I question most things and that’s in real life. I question even more when it’s online. However, I am always the first to admit I was wrong when presented with irrefutable facts, and will do so again if that happens. Heck someone texted me wondering if Spiral is really Traveler in disguise - which I don’t think is the case but there you go. Everyone has an opinion as the saying goes. I have mine and you have yours LH. Everyone needs a hero.
