I'm not 50 and I was just trying to be nice! OS, if a woman starts coming on to me that I don't like...uh...wait a minute...that never happens to me. I'm too easy. Sorry, can't help you.
Omega...this is an easy one. To nip it in the bud, at first be polite and kindly let the person know that you are not interested. If they persist, you must ratchet up the pressure until they finally get the picture. For me, using bad manners and a few bodily noises usually do the trick. The idea is to get the person who finds you attractive to immediately find you unattractive. I suggest 3 methods: 1. Picking ones nose and eating the boogers 2. Farting and/or burping...perhaps simultaneously 3. Constantly picking at your butt to get the underwear out I am not gay, but when a particularly unattractive woman comes onto me at a bar, usually one of the three items listed above does the trick to drive her away (after she doesn't get the message when you politely tell her that she looks like roadkill and you wouldn't f*ck her with your best friend's d*ck).
867-5309 you're coming along next time so that you can be the "pretend partner". there was a brief scare after i gave the dude my number. he pulled out his cellphone and i was like... oh schit... either he's just gonna program the number into his phone or he's gonna test out the number right on the spot. luckily he dropped the phone and got sidetracked somehow. anyway... i tried the subtle hints by not saying anything when he was talking the whole time, mentioning something about a partner that really doesn't exist, and leaving for about ten minutes (no cover charge)... but the guy found me again damnit. i felt like an idiot with all the compliments he was giving me, so i felt that i had to give a few back. if i were to simply say "not interested"... people usually get offended and take it as someone that has an attitude problem. the "impotent thing" sounded like a good idea, but if the word gets around... i just don't want to seem like an arsehole after moving back here on a clean slate. fadeaway, i do matrix quotes when i'm at home by myself and i have thing bamboo stick that i use to reenact the whole neo/smith park fight scene (i'm really not joking when i say this. pretty much a loner after college), so i guess i'd pretty much be acting like myself. sounds like bad manners wouldn't do any harm. lord knows i try to hold in the burps/belches after drinking a beer if i'm talking with someone. should have let'em out i suppose. i'm the type of person that won't blow my nose until i can make it to a restroom. well... if any of you want to see a good karaoke show, go to jr's on thursday. some pretty decent singers. good renditions of train's "drops of jupiter" and donny hathaway's "this christmas" and a few other christmas songs. i would have gotten up there, but i takes a few more drinks. i've done some pretty good versions of devo's "whip it", lauryn's "killing me softly", the verve pipe's "freshmen", fastball's "the way", and marvin gay's "what's going on". fattyfatbastard, if you thought my calls were disturbing you could have just told me instead of blurting it out on this board.
lauryn's "killing me softly This is like a popular song in the gay scene. I went to a gay party with my wife and all the gay guys there new all the words. Very funny when they were singing while they were drunk.
I don't know if all the things you do to tell women you're not interested would work on gay men. I think a better method would be to copy things that women do to tell men they aren't interested.
I remember there was this really aggressive girl who works at the paper with me (there are a lot of women who work there) and she took a liking to me even though she was about 21 and I'm 35. She'd pull on my ponytail, flirt with me constantly and just generally bug the **** out of me because....she was hot. Even though I plainly showed her my wedding band, it still didn't deter her advances, but in fact, it increased them. One day after I was done with my radio show, I was working on story and guess who was working late. She started rubbing my shoulders and then she kissed me on my ear and then......I let loose the fart heard 'round the world. It was like an explosion, so loud it rattled the seat I was sitting in (which required a few days to air out, in someone else's office ). And it was a stinker!!! She recoiled in horror and I never had any problems with her again.
Welcome to Houston, OS! Let us know your kareoke night. I'll come out and cheer for you. Why don't you sing something different like "My Favorite Things", or "How do you solve a problem like Maria?". I think you coulddo the Sound of Music thing. But perhaps that's not a JR's tune. My wife and I used to go there with our dance teacher a few years back after class. The big thing then was the Selena show. I guess it was a few years ago. Sounds like you missed your opportunity to grab that cute guy you'd noticed and say "Sorry, I'm with him (or at least want to be"). "Sorry, I'm still shopping" also works, along with "I haven't found anything I like yet". "BYE" helps, too.
This is a good thread OS As far as getting a suitor to back off, being direct is the only way, but I suppose it may be different in a man/man situation. Quite often from what I have seen in the very gay Hamptons is that even amongst gay couples there is usually a dominant "man" figure. there is also the softer "woman" this is even more prevolent in all female couples. I dont know your position, but as the fasionista, you are likely to be dealing with more the aggressive man figure. This is something I have no experience with. as a man, when I have an un-ionvited woman taking up my time, I usually just finish my drink quicker than normal, act nice, but not too nice. never throw out direct compliments. like she says I am handsome, I say I like her shirt/shoes, something not direct. I also look around the bar alot. it is subtle and it is a death nell to actually maintain the eyecontact. after all it is eyecontact that gets you laid. or you can figure a way to join her table and make eye contact with her hot friend. but as I was saying, if all else fails, finish that drink and go to a part of the bar where it will take you a while to get a drink and you might be able to strike up conversation over there. regardless, you are free, and you can go back to "operating" another thing. Here in NY we cant smoke in bars. I dont smoke, so Im fine with that, but if I want to get away, I will step out to get a breath of fresh air and make conversation with a random smoker as they are always talkative people. if she comes out with me and lights up, I get cold real fast and go back in while she finishes her smioke. by the time she is in I am already talking to someone else and ugly people are usually intimidated by another woman. now if anyone is interested, one of my many"I didnt realise I was getting hit on story" Went to StonyBrook University. 20k students. As always I knew most people. Some of my best friends were involved in the athletic program, and had some friends in Theatre. 3 mutual friends had an apartment together. 1 tennis star, 1 Intrumural director who did theatre, 1 Theatre girl on swimming team. they had alot of parties. First party was Halloween. I had one of those cheesy $20 Cow costumes as I was poor an unimaginitive that year. So Im at this party and after talking to this group of people for like 2 hours in the dining room I realized it was me and 4 other guys, and they were so damn nice. oh no, they were flirting and they were all gay. It was funny because I realized it all at once, and Immediately realized I needed to get a beer. They were at every party after that for 2 years, and we eventually laughed about it. They were embarassed because apparently the femenine qualities of having utters and a cow costume did something for them. We had a great time at the next party when the theme was disco, and I tie died the cow and wore it again. they got the humor of it and that is when we had our laugh. ehh whatever, felt like typing
