What do you do if a person keeps coming on to you? You can let go. I wouldn't blink an eye!

Your post is confusing.

I'm wondering if I've (inadvertently) clicked into the middle of a conversation.

Otherwise, if someone keeps coming on to you and you've told them, "No," they might be scary in a dumb way. I'd get away from them.

Or, is this a joke that I'm missing?

:O

Maybe, you are right. This question comes from my other posting: What do you do if people keep on coming to you for financial help? A blogger read the first part of the question and thought of giving his opinion but stop short. Maybe, I should rephrase the question:

What do you do if people coming on to you for a physically intimate relationship with no string attached?

  I would start going to church. That would make me an instant believe.

  I suppose I would be busy trying to keep my wife from killing her on the spot! And if someone were to do that to my wife? God better have mercy on his ass, cause I won't.

At my age, if that were to happen, I'd probably have a stroke/heart attack. Us old, frail, feeble minded types just couldn't handle that.

Walk away. A person who won't respect your decisions in one area isn't going to respect them at all.

Well, I suppose if this is a recurring problem for you, you could always try going without showering/bathing for a few days. Should solve the problem.

Tell them straight in their face. Speaking about it, I've been attacked by homosexuals as a kid(thankfully, they didn't do any adverse harm to me) and the last time was when I was 20. I told that fellow straight in his face in the public(he tried to feel me in the public) to f**k off!

mellowedblues

It depends. I think there are lots of things to think about when this happens.

Why this person is coming on to you? Money? Some elaborate plot to brainwash you to assassinate a political leader?
Are you attracted to that person?
Are you currently attached to someone? If you are, do you think it's wrong to cheat on your someone with another person? Can you live with it?
Will there be repercussions if you succumbed to the other person's charms?

So many questions.

I guess it depends. How strongly is this person pushing him/herself onto you?

One of my good friends says I have that 'get the hell away from me' look, down pat? I dunno. I thought I looked friendly (not friendly/friendly.. but I digress...)but regardless, I don't have that problem. I used to, until I turned into a cranky old bat.

  yep, there is a benefit to being a cranky old bat LOL! Well unless you get a cranky old codger thinking he can score and tries to pick you up at the church art exhibit and then "it isn't a get the hell away look" ITS the look of horror and disgust that sends them packing.

There is nothing wrong with cranky old bat right; as long as we feel comfortable with it!

[reply]
3/05/08

TheMrs

Oh sure. Everyone should be comfortable with who they are. And if we're being honest, I'm not really *that* old, or batty.. but I AM a crank.

Anyway, so what is this problem (be specific as is humanly possible) with someone pushing themselves on you? You never said, really. Unless my ADD is getting in the way again.

  There's nothing wrong with a crank either. No, it's not a problem at all - nobody is doing any pushing!

If it's a woman, I put her over my shoulder and carry her up to my bed. If it's a guy, I call his wife and tell her he's gay.

Don't wash, wear the same clothes for a week or more, pick your nose in front of them, burp a lot and look very bored. If they don't get the message or disappear in horror, then you have a stalker and need to keep a diary for the police.

Tell them flat out that you're not interested & to beat it (pardon the pun, of course...) If they persist, get a restraining order against them.

calais50

All you can do is say you're not interested and ignore them as much as possible. I do not get a lot of nonsense from men, b/c to be perfectly honest, I am not the easiest person to approach. I've been told I'm scary. Imagine that, lol.

  Heh I'm told i"m scary quite often too....but the way I dress and walk - yeah, - I can see that.
  
  But you see so sweet, and...sweet!

  Lol, I can see that too. ninjas are friggin scary.
  I think I'm sweet, but people who don't know me well assume I'm snobby and not friendly. And some people are afraid of saying something factually incorrect in front of me, like I will think they're not very smart or something, which is kind of embarrassing b/c I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable. If someone asks a question and I know the answer, I will tell them, but I don't go spouting off info like an encyclopedia.

Personally, so long as they're not disgusting or STD-infected, I would use them for a one-night stand and never talk to them again if they kept ignoring the hint that I'm not interested. It fucks with their head.

As for what YOU should do, read up on psychology. (Make them not want you.)

Ah, but if you are attracted to them - what then? Are you just in denial?
