I would definitely thank them after I blushed! I actually wore a great coat out to my daughters play and the darn tag was hanging right under the arm. Unfortunately a stranger did not see it...my husband did and proceeded to read the price. BUSTED!

i saw a lady sitting in front of us in church--she had one of those long size stickers on her pants. my husband wanted me to tell her because it would not be a nice thing to let her walk around like that. you see many years ago, while we were dating, he had just gotten a new pair of jogging pants and jogged over to my house, wher my mother and i proceded to bust out laughing, as he had jogged more than a mile with the sticker on the back of his leg.
he didnt want to tell her, as he thought it would seem inapropriate--as if he had been staring at her behind...
so i whispered it to her--i was more embarrased than she was!

Lets say you have a shirt tag in the back of your shirt sticking out and some gal or guy reaches to the back of you neck and tucks it in your shirt without asking how would you respond?

Since I always cut all tags off before I wear anything I don't have to worry about one sticking out

I always say something if I see a tag sticking out the back "excuse me but your tag is showing"
I don't think I have ever tucked a tag without saying something first

My nephew told me that he found it was a great way to start a conversation if he saw a girl whose shirt tag was showing. "excuse me but I just wanted you to know your tag is out"
hmmm lol wonder if it runs in the family

There are several ways to look at this and none of them have anything to do with smacking someone. Why would you even consider "smacking" someone who thought they were doing you a favor? Someone took the tiny bit of time to commit a random act of kindness for you and you are talking about returning the favor with violence. I have no clue where you are coming from.

I have a personal space issue, too, and would prefer someone say something before just doing it, but even if someone did just tuck it in, I would certainly thank them once I realized what they were doing.

I sure hope this isn't a sign that society has become so self-centered that we "expect" others to think and feel exactly as we think and feel.

I do it to close family members out of coutesy and, providing I knew them, I wouldn't be offended if someone did it to me just so long as they gave me some prior warning before groping the back of my neck. Otherwise I might ask questions.
