Welcome to Gaia! ::

I was just thinking back the other day, and I've had a lot of awkward situations when it comes to being hit on. Maybe it's the people that hit on me, or maybe it's my reaction to being hit on and complimented.

So I figured I'd make a thread to see if anybody else has any funny stories about being hit on

One of the strangest times I ever think I got hit on was when I was at work. This hispanic couple came up to me to order some popcorn (I work in a movie theater) and they kept looking at me funny and talking to one another in spanish. Since I can't speak spanish at all, I felt very uncomfortable but hoped it was about the food. Then the guy, who did all the talking to me, asked how old I was. When I told him 18 he goes "Oh, well you are very pretty. Very pretty." and the girl and him both nodded and stared at me. Since I had no clue if they were siblings, or if they were a couple, I was completely weirded out and after that I just thanked them and rushed off to get their food.

The best and possibly most awkward time I ever got hit on was this year. I was in wal-mart at about 1am with my friend and her boyfriend in the toy section when this guy who worked there came up to me and started saying stuff at me really fast and really happy while trying to do some fancy handshake with me or something before walking off to finish his work. I probably looked confused.

My friends and I all kinda laughed about it a bit and then went back to perusing the toy aisle. The guy came back and called me over to him, I was really confused by this point, but I went over anyway. He asked me if my friend's boyfriend was mine and I told him no. When he heard this he said "Hi, my name's Leeroy... Oh wait, no it isn't" and looked down at his nametag, I don't remember his name... it was Teddrick or something sweatdrop But I'll always think of him as Leeroy. Anyway, then he started talking about how he'd been at this place like Bellview or something, and how they had good sandwiches. He said it was a long story of how he got there, involving ninja turtles, power rangers and pokemon. I just kinda laughed at his story and then he asked about me a bit, and if I had a boyfriend. When I told him, yes he asked me Rob's name and then tried to convince me to go on a date with him and not tell "Rod". After we talked a bit and he found out trying to entice me with drugs wouldn't work, he continued being strange at me he went off to do some more work.

I wanted to leave, but my friends insisted on going to the pet section to look at fish, so I went with them. Of course he was headed right for the pet section, and when he saw me looking at fish he asked if I liked them. I told him I did, and he said "I have a catfish in the freezer, you should come try it!" Unfortunatly, I hate fish... at least eating them, so he got turned down yet again.

But good old Leeroy gave my friends and me a good laugh, and he embarassed me a lot. I kinda miss him. I had been wearing a white spaghetti strap top that day, and the next week I went back after doing my cleaning job and I was wearing another white spaghetti strap top and I got hit on again.

I have refused to go to wal-mart in white spaghetti strap tops since then.

Does anybody else have some interesting stories? I'm afraid how I told it didn't do it justice, but I suddenly got a headache and I can't remember half the funny stuff he said sweatdrop

I've been hit on a few times in highschool, the mall, etc. I really like it when my boyfriend hits on me. xp

One of my classmates in high school got my phone number and called me up to ask me out, and told me I have a sexy voice. He was really nice, but really dumb when it came to making 'hints' that he wanted to take things further. Like trying to get me to go all the way, in my living room, with my 87 year old aunt in the next room. I DON'T THINK SO! So, yeah, that didn't last. I also got hit on a couple times in high school, but I could never tell if someone was being serious, so I turned down the only guy who asked me to the prom. I'm not sure to this day if he was making fun of me or not. I would hope not, because I thought he was a nice guy, but I didn't really know him very well.

I'm only 15 so i havnt been hit on to much, but there's this guy i like who i think is really cute, that randomly hits on me, like he'll ask me to go home with him, and just hang his arm around my sholder, that kind of thing, but i think most of the times we hang out were kinda out of it....

I love it. Getting hit on? OMG I think its great that someone can see my beauty or whatever you want to call it. I like it. Makes me feel special and all that jazz. XD Anyways I think that is the girls full proof exscuse, faking your orientation. Me and my friends do it all the time..

anyways, I have this friend from France that moved here a couple years ago so her accent is still pretty heavy. Well we were in the gas station getting something to drink and this guy started hitting on me. So I faked like I knew French and acted like I didnt understand a single word he said. lol

That's understandable, especially with the groping bit.

So, a question adressed to female-kind:
Do girls deliberately make it hard for boys to identify their sexual alignment through playful flirting and friendly groping, or is it just a sometimes pleasant side-effect of natural female behavior?

I think it depends, some of my friends grope me or poke my boobs 'cause they're envious.

Others because they're like me and think it's amusing to make our sexuality vague and to confuse people with it. My friend is very straight, and I call myself straight although I don't really care about a person's gender, it's all about their personality and soul for me. I actually won't really grope my friend, though. I'm almost always on the recieving end sweatdrop Then I have friends who I would never dream of play groping like that, or of them groping me (that sounds wrong gonk )but we're just as good of friends. It's really a personal thing on if you find that funny or not.

But I do enjoy finding out people thought I was gay or bi, since I consider myself straight and have only dated or liked guys.

okay i've got a really good story.

so me and my friend kelcie were in france (im not rich, her mother paid for it) but one day we came out of this place and there were these two guys carring around sketch pads and they are like "you want a Caricature" and were like "yeah sure" the dude who was drawing me was pretty cute and he was like
"you have such beutiful eyes, how long you be in france?"
"not long we leave today" i said
"will you come back to see me?"
"i don't know french, so probably not"
"i teach you french"
Kelcie- ["french somethin "]
so he continues drawing and then he's like
"i give you sexy body"
"thanks?"
he comes over to show me my picture and he's like "you like?"
and the picture has these enormous boobs...and i'm just thinking, well i know where he was looking the whole time. but we didn't have enough money to pay for them so they are just like "here just take them" and then he says "you have camera?"
"no"
"WHAT!? no camera!?"
then some guy walks up and then my dude was like "this is my boyfriend, ha i kid you my girlfriend"
"we lucky he have camera!"
so he comes over and wraps his hands around me and then looks at me and is like "Okay give me kiss"
i'm like okay whatever i'm in france kissing a few boys is no problem, so i give him a peck on the lips.
"op! camera not on! ahve to do again"
so i kiss him again, and he's like "oh, that one not come out well we do again" so i kiss him again. he shows me the picture and is like "give me something to remember you by?" and he has his eyes closed with his mouth wide open and i'm just like "WOAH!, you've had enough kisses for today!" and me and my friend run off and his guy's are laughing at him as we jog away. but hey at least i got free pictures out of it!
