I feel like I’ve missed some context here.

Oh my god today one of the customers gave me fish again

I work in a coastal town. A couple of years ago one customer was buying some salad and said it was to go with the fish he just caught, and I said “wow, I don’t think I’ve ever had fish that fresh before”. He promised to catch me one and a few months later came in with a whole ass fish he had caught for me.

A couple months ago a different customer was talking about how he and his daughter were going to have fish they had caught for dinner and I told him the story about the first guy. He ALSO promised to bring me some, and a week later gave me a fillet of parrot fish he had caught earlier that day.

Tonight he came in and specifically asked for me, and when I showed up he had another WHOLE ASS FISH that he had scaled and gutted to give to me. I told him he really didn’t have to do that (and thanked him like 10 times) and he insisted he had had extra and had eaten enough fish to be sick of it anyway.

Customers just give me fresh caught fish now I guess it’s wild

What the fuck, Nicola

WHAT I DIDN’T (TECHNICALLY) ASK FOR THIS

my boyfriend is now concerned that fisherman are trying to court me

If it is a comfrt to your boyfriend, this is not courtship behavior but the natural generousity of people who have stumbled into an abundance of something and want to share their good fortune/they’re really sick of eating it.

Inland, this is the same instinct that drives people to leave bags of Zucchini on thier neighbor’s doorsteps starting in mid-july.
