I guess it depends on who is doing it. But if it's someone you don't want it would be annoying.

Or if she smacks him with a rolled up newspaper. Hahahaha

I would do that. "Get away from me fool!"

I was waiting for her to retaliate. She looked pretty annoyed. He tried to touch her arm and she gave him the death stare and said don't touch me.

He still kept going. And was still going when I got off the bus. I don't know how many more disinterested signals she could give him.

OP: the guy is a teenager, give him a break. you don't expect someone his age to be suave and sexy like james bond now, do you? the kid has shown balls, which most guys will never get around to growing when it comes to women. as he grows up, his confidence will likely improve, as will his game.

everyone has to begin somewhere.

besides, even if his game doesn't improve, if he keeps at if eventually some girl will find it charming.
The problem is, he didn't take the hint. And she made it very very clear she wasn't into him. She didn't make any eye contact at all. She kept turning her head away. And gave 1-3 word responses.

He was stepping into dangerous territory. She could of done many things. Yelled, pepper spray, cursed him out, ect.

Go away!

I don't know. Some guys who really like someone won't take no for an answer.

Persistence. Whether you liked it or not, that's how a lot of guy get the girl they want. Looks stupid from an onlooker's standpoint, but to the guy, he sees someone he wants, and didn't want to take no for an answer, and he's thinking eventually she will take it as compliments and start to turn on to him. Happens all the time, and it might work for her. Then he gets his ego stroked.

Persistence against all odds tends to work in the movies, but not so much IRL. Not as much as guys would like to think.

All part of the chase, and the stories he gets to tell later.

maybe not as much as one may think, but it happens a lot more than people may want it to.
