    *Guys take notes!*

    I have been mate. It seems if you are any of the following:
    hobos
    A nerdy guy with buck teeth
    Jamaicans.
    old Jamaicans
    guy probably around 35 with a curly mullet that went to his shoulders.
    dancing
    toothless guy
    pretty harmless
    40-year-old double amputee
    overweight bearded men
    a little too eager
    short older men
    totally blank dead eyes
    40+ teacher
    old guys
    chubby chasing scrawny granddad
    too YOUNG (25)
    older, drunk, mentally ill

    your *kitten* is toast in the dating game.

    I love how the mercenary side of women come out in these types of threads.

    Basically if you are old, young, fiscally or visually challenged you may as well just stay at home and eat chips cos you're not getting laid. Dayum. I'm screwed then...

    I'm a freak so how on earth could I not like getting hit on by one?!

    ;)





    Some of the things that are described as a "freak" are absolutely ridiculous...some surely know how to get over themselves, right?!

    I'm cracking up! It just has to be somewhere in between. That's all.

    I get all types of guys approaching me. Old, young, tall, short, skinny, fit, fat, nerdy, jocks, hobos, toothless, creepers, you name it. I take it as a compliment when they say, "you're gorgeous." I'll just smile and say "thank you." If they try to ask me out, I'll give them the "aww I'm sorry look" and say, "I'm married." Works all the time.

    If they approach you with a rag and ask "Does this smell like chloroform?" then I would say probably a freak.

    To me the only time you should call someone complimenting you a freak is if they can't/won't take no for an answer. Otherwise just consider it a compliment.

    Well frankly we really are our simplest form....the sperm trying to reach the egg....in this world it feels like there are over 30 million of us trying to get to the 1 of you, and some of us will wiggle any way we can to get the job done.....

    I was in Chicago this weekend and there were a couple very creepy guys who banged on the windows and tried motioning for me to go talk to them. Aside from being embarrassed by the scene they made I was pretty scared one got up and started walking towards us so I slinked into the bathroom lol.

    So harsh. I'm like dying a little inside here. It's not my fault that I have no teef. That's the fault of tooth decay.

    It's funny though that women who are supposedly the less visual and altruistic sex focus in on looks and success. Who would have thunked it ;)

    The other night my best friend and I were on our way to a party and we pulled up to a gas station. These two old men in a minivan next to us starts asking for our numbers, we proceeded to tell them that we were "together" and they told us to have a good night and drove away. It was pretty funny. :) I don't mind getting told I'm pretty, I usually tell them I have a boyfriend (even though I don't) and it works most of the time.

    Omgosh I tend to call myself a creeper magnet...

    Ok the grocery store one reminds me when I went to the store about a year ago. There was a guy probably around 35 with a curly mullet that went to his shoulders. I turned on the aisle and he started dancing towards me and even did the whole fake lasso and pull me in. It was f***ing pathetic!!! He thought he was sooooo charming. I was like, does this usually work for you??? baha.

    this seriously had me laughing it I cried....the lasso part- oh my gosh!!!! LOL!!!

    Wow. I feel bad for men after reading this thread.

    Maybe it's because I was raised in a very Southern family, but I was taught to respond to flirting with grace. That means smiling and saying "thank you" when a stranger in the grocery store tells me I have beautiful hair or pretty eyes.

    There is a very wide and obvious line between harmless flirting and harassment, and I find myself rolling my eyes at all the women who pretend they don't know the difference and that they are being "stalked" by "creepers" every time they go out in public.

    I suspect "creeper" is code for "confident guy who isn't as hot as I'd like him to be."

    oh I get a lot of weirdos. I guess one of the weirdest was this truck driver at work (not our driver, he delivers to us) asked me if I'd be interested in going on a date. I stupidly said 'yes' thinking DATE MEANS DATE. BEFORE we ever went out or ANYTHING, he shows up with another delivery at my office with a greeting card that said
    ' I WISH YOU WERE HOLDING ME INSTEAD OF THIS CARD' =|

    date cancelled - and thanks for the warning

    I will say for me physical attraction is very important, just as important as other factors. That doesn't mean he has to be the hottest out of the bunch according to all women in the world but he has to be a delight to look at from MY eyeballs. I have a friend who thinks her bf is the hottest man in the world and I think he looks like Waldo from Where's Waldo.
    I've had bfs who my friends didn't think were so hot but to me he was the hottest piece of *kitten* out there!!

    We're all entitled to our own preferences. All I mentioned were the super old guys that look like my dad (or older) and the super young guys.. and they're NOT creeps in my eyes. Just not my cup of tea.

    What's the difference between a creepy guy and a not-creepy guy?

    A: If the woman wants you to hit on them, you're not creepy. Otherwise... you are creepy.

    To some people: please get over yourself. I'd hate it for you if life threw you a curve ball where your physical looks were altered in a way that going to the gym and losing weight couldn't help you. You would be screwed.

    This happened to me over the weekend. I've been told that I should approach more women because I'm introverted and because I don't go out of my way to talk to strangers, that this impedes my ability to date.

    This sounds fairly reasonable. So I gave it a try. Even MFP says that the gym is a good place to meet women because you have similar fitness goals right? Well this goes beyond what I would normally do... but I see a woman who I thought was attractive working out. I was next to her. I said "hey how's it going?"

    Her answer? "**** off"

    \m/

    Women are just as physical-minded as men are.

    You can hit on women. So long as you are physically attractive to her. Otherwise you are creepy. ;)

    Nail meet head.

    People say that the sexes are different when it come to attraction.

    They're not.

    I'm guesstimating that 77.8% of these stories are exaggerated bullsh*t.

    I disagree, I've had friends/acquaintances....who used these same creepy lines.
    Ruins it for the whole group hanging out, automatically we are all assumed to be creepers.

    him: hey baby, what's your sign?
    her: she says her sign
    him: mine's neon.......open for business

    He thought that was brilliant and didn't understand why they would leave quickly. If they stood there in shock
    he would then say "If I told you, you had a nice body would you hold it against me"

    I got hit on by a drunk Marina* girl once. That was freaky.

    * The Marina is where the young upwardly mobile preppy former sorority/fraternity people settle when they move to SF for their first jobs,

    Exactly. It's just that in the world of dating, one side gets to pick from the other, and the side that has to dance has to dance harder, prettier, and better than the rest of the lemmings dancing with him =)

    Dance harder monkey!

    See, I would have dragged that guy to the bar, made him buy me a drink, and spelled out in crayon for him how to talk to a woman. There's no reason these unfortunate experiences can't be educational.

    Walk up to her directly ( no lasso, no creepily sneaking up from behind) and say "Hi, I'm (name)."

    ^^^This, it's friendly without being intimidating.

    It's simple, Say "HI, my name is..." save the cheese for playful banter later. If they're not interested who cares you're not walking away with any less than what you started with.

    I was on my way to the laundromat (looking stlyish in my laundry day atier) when i stopped to filling up my car a the gas station and ran in to get some money out of the ATM, some one comes flying in and says "WHO DRIVES THE RED CAR? IT'S OVERFLOWING WITH GAS" Of corse it was my red car... anyway, i get out there shut off the pump and start taking care of business. there was this guy riding circles around me and the pump area on his bike. he kept commenting on my tattoo, and saying how nice it was asking to look at it, exct. while i am trying to help take care of the gass that has started to run into the street. finally before i am about to leave, the bike guy goes, so, is that guy inthere your boyfriend, i said, no? he was like, oh well... said something and i laughed. i said just becaue i am not here with my boyfriend doesnt mean i dont have one. mind youall i am STILL looking FLY! in my laundry day sweat pants, and ill fitting shirt.

    moral of the storry, some guy on a bike at the gas station was trying desparately to hit on me. yeah, mmm not the ideal situation fella!
  • OK - no exaggeration here, this is a true story. Let me preface this by telling you I'm a 43 year old mother who dresses very conservatively. I've landed in Albequerque at 2am and am driving around looking for my hotel. I pulled over the side of the road to read the GPS one last time and two men in a pickup pull up next to me. They comment that I am very pretty and ask if I am looking for work. I politely said thank you, but I'm fine and close the window. They drive away and I think nothing of it.

    An hour later, laying in bed it dawns on me - they must have thought I was a prostitute!!!!
