Awwww shit, you shoulda said she was ITALIAN!!!!
Things different over here in the states. Can't let your women rub up on men, women have even been fired for calling people "hey honey" or "hello sugar", much less the cheek kissing nonsense you euros still do, ewww
I get flirty waitresses a lot, and even when you KNOW its just for the tips, there is a deep hardwired part of the male reptilian brain that says "go for it old man, you got a shot at her!!!"
Hell, the entire OF model is based on this male weakness.
