This is quite a story. I enjoyed reading it and got a chuckle or two in the process. I have no idea how I would deal with such a situation but I rather think you look better in your swimsuit than I would, LOL.

hiya,
i think i also suffer from your condition (I hate shopping, no seriously, I do. I'm one of those people who sees things I can't afford when I find them, or can't find anything I like when I can) and i deeply sympathise with you.

left lots with the imagination you have a very particular writing style that is easy to read and a joy to read.
your story was great and i really enjoyed reading it

well done
you

This is a very well-written narrative about an amazing event--series of events. I can imagine that you were simultaneously flattered and mortified!

This work has reached the exceptional level

There's a certain flair to writing that comes from many things: detail, description, word choice, sentence structure and the use of punctuation. When these are expertly combined together it can make even the most mundane of stories come to life.

I mean, what is this story about, really? A woman buys a new swimsuit, posts it on a dating site and draws the interest of lots of guys. Whoopty-do, right? But it's the presentation! The author lets readers into her life with such vivid detail and skill that we feel we know much about her. An intimacy is created, and when a writer can achieve that they can hook a reader and keep them hooked.

That's what happened with me.

Terrific post.
