What do you think when you first meet a guy and he has a black eye? Isn't is kinda gross/stupid? Well the reason why I ask is because I am the proud owner of a nice shiner and I just met this really cute girl, but I didn't make any move. I got it from a little rough housing with some new friends. Basically I was jumped. I was a bit embarrassed about it. I let this girl slip away, no big deal.....but I was still curious about my question.

It would be a great opener, so use it to your advantage. She was probably wondering how you got it in the first place. You could tell her something really funny and off the wall and make a joke of it.

When you have grapes, make wine.

Do you work for a shredding company? Quaint name.

I don't *think* a girl would judge you for having a shiner. Some girls might even be drawn to such. Didn't Matt Damon sport one in Good Will Hunting? Not sure. Yeah, don't sweat it.

Sorry you got jumped. Ouch.

It happens. Thanks, I appreciate it. I was just curious what everyone thought. I think I'll try and use it to my advantage, atleast once the scrapes on the side of the head go away.
