HAVEN'T EVEN LEFT CANADIAN SOIL YET

I've heard that in a lot of foreign countries men find white women attractive. I've never gone to far from Canada so I have never experienced this but it does scare me a little becuase I'm really pale.
Well the weirdest thing happened to me at work last night. I was just standing at my till talking to one of the janitors when this little Filipino (I think) man came in IGA. He came in the exit doors so he was behind the tills. He looked a little lost so I asked him if there was anything I could help him with. He asked me my name and told me his was Russell. I told him if he needed help to ask me and I went back to my till. He just kinda stood there for a while, I think he was looking at me, I never looked back at him but ya know when you can feel someone looking at you.
Then after a few minutes he came over and asked me how my night was, and if I liked working at IGA, etc. Then he asked me what I was looking for in a man.
"Uh, what?"
"What do you look for in a man?" he repeated
"I don't look, I'm to busy for boys." I replied.
Then he tells me he is doing a survey of what Canadian women are looking for in a man. So at this point I thought he was intoxicated. Whatever, I had nothing better to do so I played along. We talked for a bit, then he askes, "Are you sure you do not have any time for just a coffee."
"Sorry, no. I should really get back to work."
"Okay, thank you for your time." He said as he left.
Rather befuddled, I went back to the janitor who heard the whole thing. The janitor told me that Russell was watching me as he left, he was sure that Russell was sober and smitten with me.
Perfect, I haven't even left the country yet!
The weirdest thing though, was this guy didn't come in to buy anything, he didn't even look at any of the shelves. He just talked to me and left.
