Yeah, I have to wonder if there's more to the story and your perspective is just skewed Jet?

I find her story believable. Men can be that insensitive.

I've had this experience with colorstruck black men who will be a gentlemen to every white asian or latina in the room but a darkskinned black woman. They will single you out and purposely ignore you. There's a grocery market in my area where i always catch this black male helping white women load groceries into their car. I have never seen him do this for any black women

Well, we were all standing around chatting, he ordered shots, handed them out and didn't give me one. Maybe he thought I didn't want one, but they waited until I bought one to do the 'toast' so that's the way I took it. It's definitely possible that I misinterpreted it, but from my perspective (and talking to one of my girlfriends afterwards) he just didn't want to buy me one. Maybe he thought I was with someone and didnt want to overstep his boundaries, even though I came alone. No big, I pay my own way anyway

I actually found it kind of funny

I'm the Khloe Kardashian of my group of girlfriends, they're short cute and thin, while I'm none of those things and there have many times where men have gone out of their way to make sure I know they're not interested in me. It really doesn't bother me anymore, they're obviously not worth my time and energy.

as for the weirder experiences? Random people offer to share their food or drinks with me. Usually along the lines of I'll say something like, "hey that looks good, what did you get?" They'll respond with "so and so, do you want some." and then hand me their fork or cup. This happens to me all the time.

Is it flirting or just being friendly? I have no idea.

Can you elaborate on that? What did she say to you that gave the impression he didn't want to buy you one?

Maybe the guy miscounted. Khloe K isn't bad. She has a nice booty and her face is alright.

That's what I'm thinking, that it was an error on his part and not intentional.

She asked him and he said 'I'm just not into her' or some variation of that. So, he wasn't buying the girls drinks to be nice, he was hoping to get in one of their pants. If that was the case I'm glad he ignored me.

If he couldn't count to 5, then we have much deeper problems than just ignoring me

Really Jet! C'mon! This is starting to sound crazy. How is saying that actually going to win him points with the ladies whom pants he wanted to get into? It wouldnt. I know that some men can be dense but not that dense.
