I think yours is a rare, almost, unique case JJ...You're tall and tatted...yep, I get it...that said (and knowing I've seen your face pic) You're completely beautiful in your own way, of your own niche...If I was on the coast I'd make my best attempts to sweep you off your feet...
Generally, I'm fairly good at projecting "go away and leave me alone" body language and facial expressions, so I'm often able to successfully deter guys from reaching the point of asking me out if I'm not interested. It doesn't work 100% of the time, though.
I suspect I do this sometimes without even meaning to. I'm just reserved and inexpressive and men seem to need some excessive giggly-ness and smiley-ness to be encouraged to make a move.
of all the guys that have hit on you or asked you out, what percentage do you turn down? (e.g. Turning down a date or even inserting boyfriend into the conversation to let him know to stop flirting)
Without me initiating, I've been hit on 2 times in the last 10 years IRL. Both times I turned him down because they both looked like drug users. They were both a lot younger than me but that was not a deterrent. Online I get hit on more but I find the discrepancy between online and real life.... odd.
In the general sense, it makes sense to me that since most women only like dating one man at a time, they will turn down almost all of them.
Stores are a great place. I get approached most often in a grocery aisle. If he just has beer and chips in his basket, he's out.
I like to look in people's carts. I always try to guess whether they are single or married, have kids or not..etc. I try to figure out what they are making or if they are having company or a BBQ or something of that sort. It occupies me while I'm waiting to be checked out.

I think this is true...and I think some people mistake "friendly" for "flirting".
I offered to let a man behind me in line go ahead of me at the grocery store not too long ago. I had a cart full of stuff and he had 2 items. I guess he assumed I was hitting on him...he took me up on my offer and said..."thanks! OH, by the way I'm spoken for". Uhhhh...okay. I was just being friendly.
I have offered the same thing to women, the elderly, teens..etc.
I guess to him that was code for "I want you!" lol

I never turned down a date when I was dating. If I wasn't interested in a romantic relationship I told them ASAP but I would still hang out with them.
