When I was young I was a bit shy around women. I was at a New Years party talking to a girl I knew who was quite attractive, really nice, and I definitely would have been interested in. She asked what my New Year's resolution was going to be, and I joked that I was going to resolve to chase more women. She replied "Well, you should give me a call sometime."
At this point my brain completely shut off and instead of doing anything sensible, I went into wise-crack mode and said "What, you want to chase women too?"
It was several days later that I woke up in the middle of the night and realized what I had done. Unfortunately too late by then since she pretty much never spoke to me again.
