Sweet vs. Creepy

Sweet vs. Creepy - Round 1:

Sweet:

When an adorable 6th grader says hi every morning with an eyebrow-raise or a wink.

Creepy:

When your fifth grade student talks about your ass with another student in a language he thinks you can't understand.

Sweet:

When your lady next-door neighbor gives you some homemade pasta sauce and veggies.

Creepy:

When your dude next-door neighbor looks you up and down then gives you a thumbs up before hiking up his pants that are already too high.

Sweet:

When the girls from your volleyball team tag you in a photo on fb with lots of hearts and smiles in the caption.

Creepy:

When the boys from your eighth grade class tag you in a photo on fb you were not aware was being taken and comment with, "Oh, le le!"

Sweet:

When a nice guy offers you a ride to the next village so you don't have to wait for the bus when it's cold outside.

Creepy:

When a car full of not-so-nice guys slows down while you're waiting for the bus to stare at your weird winter outfit that may or may not consist of several articles made out of various colored yarns.

Sweet:

When a student gives you a high five after they do well on a test and thanks you for the help.

Creepy:

When a boy-student gives a girl-student a slap on the ass and tells them thanks for walking by.

Sweet:

When you run into another volunteer.

Creepy:

When you run into the baba from a couple towns over who yelled at you the last time you saw her for not giving her 20 leva cuz clearly you are Russian and wealthy though stingy, which is why you're pretty sure she put a curse on you.

Sweet:

Colleagues wishing you a "Happy (insert American holiday here)!"

Creepy:

Colleagues telling you to watch out for the bus driver. "Just say no to coffee. Always."

Sweet:

When nice people on a train or bus give up their seat so you can rest.

Creepy:

When someone on a train or bus moves seats in order to stare at you more conveniently as neck strain is a real issue.

That's all for now but trust me when I say I am nowhere near done with this particular topic. Also, this is a list just as easily created for Americans - PC volunteers even. Creepy is everywhere.
