Man, I thought back to when I was younger and a bit more clueless when it comes to women, and I received some real kisses of death... I've heard all of the following....
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"You are nice, sweet, loving, guy. I'm absolutly positive that some girl will want to be your girlfriend"
"You remind me of my brother, he was shy like you and still got married"
"But, lots of girls would want to date you, even I would date you!"
"I screwed this guy named....."
"I have a boyfriend"
-------------------------------------------------------------------
But, to counterreact these rejection, I also remembered some things girls have said to me that were blatent green lights, and I didn't pick up on them...
--------------------------------------------------------------------
(About 18 when this occured)
Guy: "Hey, has anyone ever told you you look like someone famous?"
Me: "Yeah, I have actually."
Guy: "I think you might look like [some famous guy]"
(Girl in the back chimes up loudly)
Girl: "Ohhh, he's hot!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(I was 14 when this happened, Imagine a shy timid AFC)
Girl: Hey how are you?
Me: Good.
Girl: Do you like me?
Me: ( scared look with terror) NOOO!
Girl: Do you like guys?
Me: (not quite as scared) no, I don't
Girl: You're gaaaaay...
I just sort of took that one personal and never spoke to her ever again. Figures, I think back to it now that girl was always staring at me with a wild look in her eyes; being the stupid AFC I was I never caught on that this girl had the hots for me. Grrrrr.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Age 19 when this happened in a college computer class)
Girl: Hey, can you help me put this floppy disk in this computer. How do you save stuff?
Me: (Direct her verbally on how to stick the floppy in and save stuff)
[Next day]
Her: So how are you doing?
Me: I'm alright, you?
Her: Good
Her: say, what is your last name?
Me: [says last name]
Her: ( Gets on the local online yellow pages website to look up my address)
Her: Is this you?
Me: No
Her: Is that really your last name?
Me: Yes
[Next day]
Her: Do you like pornography?
Me: No, I don't.
Her: You don't like me do you?
Me: I never said that
Her: Naw, I think you don't like me!
This chick was physically hot, but she acted desperate and annoyed the crap out of me, which was a real turn off. Also, she dropped the class I had with her in college after missing like two weeks worth of classes. Who knows what she was doing.
