"Hello, first of all, I am not romantically interested in you. Do you know if Pizza Hut delivers all the way out here?"

That should go over pretty well.

And I've had at least one stalker-ish person (Now that I think about it, he wasn't full blown stalker) Having a full blown stalker is...ugh.
What he did?

No,that is not working, for some reason some mens ears are taking it as "your place or mine?"


Maybe the speed of sound between Venus and Mars does it..


What comes to being deaf

Some men and some women are either obsessive or stalkers but I feel that men tend to show more violent traits when they become disappointed. Or if not more, at least used violence or threat of it is stronger. Also not all men and women are clear to say they are not interested because they like to gain attention but I am not talking about this type of game.

I talk about this type of situations when I end up to yell my head red on these some guys and they don't understand "the hint". I guess moderation stops me for giving example of angry no with unpleasant wishes after nice no:s are repeated but I trust your imagination. Basicly if you can see her adenoids, that is "the no".

What bothers me is that for example at concert when a guy comes to "talk" to me I would be really glad to talk with any guy who is not in drugs or drunk. But after saying simple hi... Hi seems to equal with "yes I want to go in bed with you".. Well, these same guys after no no:s then might come many times to try their luck at same night.. Maybe they keep drinking more and think that a woman is getting drunk instead them and that is why they keep trying again? After few more beer she says yes?

At the latest concert I refused to take any contact with any guy, I had no eye contact, I did not said hello to anyone and I turned my head away from them to enjoy this concert and still this one guy was able to touch me many times, blabber to me without an answer till his touch could not be counted as "accident" anymore and I snapped and his friends took him away.. Yet still he came back and touched me to say he is sorry and stayed next to me even I did not said anything and his friends came and took him again and they left the building..

It is scary when a woman actually needs 6 other people to remove a guy away from her, like my opinion does no matter. I can keep yelling no:s and worse and I am not heard..

I wonder if I would keep continue standing like a statue without any contact on him without even turning on his way ever, he would just take advantage and do perhaps what all without any kind of response from my side? How is ignoring taken as she must be interested of me? Do we always have to scream and kick guys away to show we don't like them?

Like is there a way to a woman to exist without someone is thinking how to get into her pants? I yelled like a lion on his face and he still came back.. If guys can give tips how to say no in a way that guy would understand it I would be very thankful.

How in guys opinion a woman should act to get her message through? "We can talk but I don't want sex" or "we can be friends but I dont want sex" are not working either.

And yes I have met also some nice guys to talk to at my hometown but this town seem to be full of these guys who don't understand difference of talking and having sex.

Agreed, completely.
Sorry, sometimes I exaggerate to make a point, no one says: "First, I am not romantically interested" only someone who's wondering what it would be like to communicate with the opposites sex supposes these silly thoughts.

I get the same reaction as you, maybe we're being too polite? The hostile, sometimes violent reaction, or feel sorry for them-self stalking is why OLD (online dating) can't be taken too seriously either. I may have gotten really enthused reactions, then if that's who I pick, they turn into a possessive fruitcake or crybaby within days.

I don't know the answer, except more experience leads to more knowledge and confidence.

Are you in Chandler?


Like I said, a lot of these types... Even ignoring them does not work. If they want something, they are going to get it come hell or high water.

because men either sink or swim, women pretty much float if that makes sense, men either rise to the top or sink to the bottom, while women exist somewhere happily in the middle

Because there's a good chance the man will have sex with a woman if he thinks she's interested even though he's not, then she gets hurt... Whereas, most women won't lead a guy on if they're not interested... I know women on online dating sites that don't initiate anything, they just wait to be contacted and then decide whether to reply.

Generally I find the highly coveted women have no need and those that aren't as attractive are more assertive.
