Would you, for money?
I'm not talking Robert Redford in a tux, offering a million bucks for a night, or Angelina Jolie saying she'd give you the same for a weekend away.Say someone on CS that you'd chatted to via the blogs or forums but never particularly fancied, offered you 5000 to spend a week with them (dollars, euros, pounds, all much of a muchness at the moment, pick your favourite currency)
The offer is genuine.
Would you?
And no, no-one has offered me that
and right now I am unemployed with my whole life on pause and me, personally? Yes I would. I need the cash. But I'm not a particularly normal person, and I'm just wondering how abnormal I am. Much more to the point, this directly relates to something I'm working on.

I'm cheap
Maybe I shouldn't have said 'someone on CS' makes the offer. I did want to make it feel a real question. Like anyone on CS has 5K to spare!
Although if you do -
Listen, I have other questions to ask, can we get this thing rolling?
Actually I am seriously considering putting together an anthology 'stories from shy men' because that's one thing about CS, I've had a few zingers through my mailbox.
I'll just change the title if I get a few zingers from interesting women as well
When you're skint?
Proud of you, girl.
That's the scary part of LDR, getting there and taking one real look at the real person and thinking nooit, no way, never ...
Spoiled a good friendship in the process.
Any guy here who would scornfully turn down an offer to spend a week with a CS hottie at their expense, with 5K added on for your trouble?
Getting a little off topic here. We've got one firm yes and one firm no and no male input.
Serious.
But...... If he is hot and hot enough to make me push him to a wall and hang onto his neck and the rest is just going to be history, I will do it at free will. And give love a one night off.
Not serious.
This is getting interesting! (and I laughed out loud at your second bit
OOh, no, I spot a man!
It's about choices, and that was the first one. Then there's another - do the right thing, which is going to cause all sorts of problems and complications, or take the easy option? And then choice after choice, one step at a time further along a road never intended.
So all these gathering responses against that first choice - oops!
And no, to anyone getting worried, I am NOT going to give title, author or release date. Chill.
This is thrashing the subject through with me peeps. And getting worried!
You live in the land which has half the hotties of CS, pretty much. If one of them offered you 5000 euros to spend a week with them - and not someone you would normally go for - would you be up for it?
I should probably have asked this question before I started writing it
Very rare but it happens.
not such a huge sum at once though, unless he has lots of it.
Anybody else, Nope! I need love, lots of love...and passion of course!
Would you?
So...5500?
or it would just feed the kitties for a while. You'd do it for the kitties? (How's the big bird? You haven't mentioned it in a while, was it delicious?)
Actually if you say yes you should probably stand by for a rush of IOUs to your mailbox as your fans form a jostling shrill queue
