Here's to all the GG Ginas of the world, keeping us guy's morale up

You didn't go bitching about being "friendzoned". Emotional maturity for everyone!
Copperbrat
Exactly. But as pathetic as it is, at least bitching about being friendzoned is a step up from some of the vile reactions I've witnessed.
OGshogun
Just don’t ever go for a girl in a relationship regardless if she says she likes you more. That’s where it gets messy, fast.
BreadyStinellis
This shouldn't even need to be said. I know that people fall for that shit, but, oh god, why?
Snoron
Anyone remotely intelligent can easily slip in a reference to their partner into a conversation if they feel the other person could do 1/
Snoron
with knowing that's the case. And then you can continue talking without worrying that anyone is getting the wrong idea. So damn simple.
Islandace
What if she notices the flirting, doesn't have a significant other but just isn't interested?
Snoron
Hmm, tbh doing the same thing might not be so bad in that situation either, haha.

Keeping our morale* up. Not morals. There's really nothing that can be done about our morals, honestly.

Isaypoopythingsbecausemostofyouannoyme
Call her a slut and that you can get chicks 10x hotter than her any day of the week. You think I was actually flirting?! Omg that’s cute.
Burritolover
conversation at work: Customer "you have a boyfriend?" Me "yes." customer "fuck him." Me "I do." end.
cauliflowersweetandsour
Keep that up and you'll have a genuine and amazing girl in no time. +1 for OP being a mature adult.
sckrlfe
I am single for 3 yrs and today i had a courage to text a girl. She said yes that we can be friend and immidiately told me that shes in rshp
sckrlfe
And i thanked for her blunt response.
blueeestarrr28
I'll get a variation of 'Your husband is a lucky man' and the flirting will continue :(

Vespii
My personal fave was halfway through a conversation: 'Before I go any further, do you have a boyfriend?' Said yes, he left, no friend for me
Yobama890sCat
Ouch, that's cold
ApsychicRat
funny one: girl hit on me and i spoke about my wife so she hit harder. then i told her we are in an open relationship and that scared her of
SMODomite
Guy came up to my fiance at the bar said, My name is Bobby, I love your hair. She said, Wow, my fiances name is Bobby what a coincidence!
Copperbrat
That's a great story, Jim.
SMODomite
Dude, I clearly said my name is Frank.
reallyguysseriously
One of the best ways I’ve found is if they compliment something say “thank you my bf got it for me”
Yobama890sCat
"You have beautiful eyes" ... "Thank you, my boyfriend got them for me!"... Just kidding this is a nice way of dropping the BF line +1
somethingsomethingwittyhere
Easy there, Dr Frankenstein!
SeptemSeptem
When guys totally miss that you were hinting you wanted to cheat on your boyfriend...
Yobama890sCat
NaughtButOne
Plenty of women use the boyfriend-drop even while sans said significant other. Doesn't change the result - just wish people could be honest.
rollercostarican
i dont mind being told they have a bf even if they dont,either way they are disinterested, so why would i care? It's a kind rejection IMO
Lill9
Sometimes we have to drop the boyfriend bomb bc they respect another man not wanting me to sleep with them more then me not wanting to do it

LooseSeall
Me too but unfortunately many guys think disinterest can be changed with effort or become insulting
WWisLife
So you’d be ok with a girl saying “I’m not interested in you”. And you aren’t going to call her a bitch, shallow, whore, fat, ugly...etc.
soithascometothiswasalreadytaken
yes 100x better than being lie to
NaughtButOne
Why would I do that? That's psychotic.
LearnSomething
That's real life. That's about how 70% of my interactions with men in bars go.
egbertmoxie
It's sweet you think there aren't people like that. And plenty enough for many women to have at least one really cringy story.
ITalkAboutGoats
But extremely common
somerandomtwat
not extremely common (common enough that every woman probs has a story or two but not a high % of guys)
LearnSomething
I can't even count the amount of times that has happened. It's definitely not 1 or 2. Maybe 1 or 2 every weekend.
JamieSmyth
The fact that half the population usually have multiple stories of that happening, is what makes it extremely common
somerandomtwat
yes its very rare that people would do anything like that
JojaColaTastesLikeDirt
Most women have at least one story of this kind of thing happening... not rare my friend.
somerandomtwat
people get hit on a lot in life. it is rare for someone to be like this but not so rare that its not going to happen in your life
BreadyStinellis
Not nearly as rare as you think.
somerandomtwat
im aware of how rare it is (at least in my area it could vary from place to place)
JojaColaTastesLikeDirt
I think you’re correct on this point bc setting plays a big factor. Imagine a young girl who has to walk in city vs driving in small town.
BreadyStinellis
Yes, setting matters. In a grocery store it's rare, In a bar, not so much.
JojaColaTastesLikeDirt
I do this, too. I will subtly phrase my sentences so it’s obvious I’m happily with someone while keeping friendly conversation going.
MrBodyMassageMachineGO
This is how normal social interaction is supposed to work between two adults.
OKiluvUBuhBai
ozjuggler
yeah, but that's an achievement on imgur. We need role models like Chinpokemon to look up to, to show us success is possible.
BeadyEyed123
I mean, it's kind of her to be preemptive, but she doesn't *have* to say anything. If he asks her out, she can refuse with no explanation.
BeadyEyed123
Nothing abnormal with that interaction either. Guys can't be offended by abruptness, which happens a lot more than we'd like to admit.

I have a boyfriend too. Wanna ditch em and go hang out and do girl stuff?

As a male, I love doing girl stuff.

As a female, idk what girl stuff consists of. I usually just play RuneScape and csgo with my gf.

you don't even let your mom in the basement?

Isn't it further? I know it's a bit random and it's not my native language but now I can't let it go until I know :')
Yobama890sCat
It is further... a rather clumbsy error if you ask me :3
AdrianDunne
Just how subtle? Anything short of being smashed by her boyfriend on top of the bar is going to be too subtle for some.
HonestCommentFarmer
"Oh, I know exactly what you mean! Me and my boyfriend went to X just this past weekend and it was jam packed!"
Yobama890sCat
XD .. She mentioned shes going to see her "future mother-in-law" on the weekend, that was all I needed
FauxErsatz
Would have went over my head if I even had the confidence to try.
ITalkAboutGoats
I think that's just willful ignorance at that point.
tangybreath
... really?? Well, then hopefully you don't complain about the girls that just say "I have a boyfriend" like other people on Imgur
NameNotFoundException
What if she's meeting your mother??
Boopbeepbeep
Told a guy who was creeping on me I was married since my obvious disinterest wasnt convincing enough. He asked if I had kids & kept creeping

It doesn't need to be, some people are just self-involved dicks.

Truth. We were in a photography class, I just had the bad luck of sitting next to him.

That's more than many girls can say.

like @majhi said, I dont even dare talking to a girl I think is hot. You will get there eventually while I lurk and throw rocks at people ;)

That's not a game where you get a participation prize, though.
WWisLife
No it is a game where you get experience points.
Qumefox
It shouldn't be a game at all.
AzgarOgly
True. Though you can't level up without scoring at least once, regardless of how much XP you farm on failures.
Sirxch
Seriously though, make an effort enough times and eventually one won’t be dating someone lol
thegarlicawakens
@OP: your spelling is *clumsy.

Plot Twist: She is lying, but its the nicest way she can say not interested.
egbertmoxie
P.S. Just adding some background as to why this is probably common from a female perspective, not like justifying or... I dunno.
Yobama890sCat
That could be true too, still appreciated though :)
egbertmoxie
Guys can take it badly or hear my 'no' as a challenge or as me being unfair (not giving them a chance etc). It can be easier, although 2/?
egbertmoxie
As a woman, saying no can be such a minefield. I favour the direct approach of 'thank you not interested' but so many ignore it. 1/?
egbertmoxie
It does chafe to have to declare yourself 'claimed' to have your 'no' respected. And even then some don't care but that's another issue. 3/3
HEXADECIMAL
If women took the intiative at all anywhere things eould change, but human nature does not change.
Yobama890sCat
I guess, thanks :)
swatz
Hell maybe made a friend. At least you tried and know. You also know she might not be a cunt. Keep at it bud!
Yobama890sCat
Thats the plan, thanks bro!
majhi
Think of it as practice. Now you know you're capable of the approach. If at first you don't succeed...

Purchase a sex doll and be done with human contact for good.

Try enough times and you'll hit it off with someone eventually! Attracting someone is not an exact science. A little boldness goes far!
AnonOmis1000
You know, I kinda hate that advice. You get burned enough times and you're gonna stop trying.
notQuipster
How many times is enough? Might just need to experiment with different tactics. Try eHarmony or something. I got burned so many times (1)
notQuipster
Before I met my wife. I don't give a shit about any of the girls that came before. I've got one that matters now, and it was worth th effort
Yobama890sCat
Trust me, I've been burned more times than not. Even had girls laughing me out the room, it's all about keeping your head high and mind open
AnonOmis1000
Yeah, well, a lot easier said than done
ScrewHavinAUsername
I do 3 steps: 1. “flash” my engagement ring, 2. mention my fiancé, 3. shut him down ice cold - if he’s still trying, he’s a douche
VirtualChessLessons
Hey, guys are really bad at reading signals! lol jk
ScrewHavinAUsername
Hahahah, riiiight! Lol
VirtualChessLessons
:D
KCBeard
I can never remember which hand the ring goes on, so I'd miss the first step
ScrewHavinAUsername
Lol, it doesn’t help that depending on the country, they wear it left or right... but that’s why there is a step 2 hehe
spiderqueendemon
Guys who are flirty, then immediately turn into friendbros? Yeah. Ladies with mates like them. We have single female friends to pair off.
SyeWatts
Question is, did you carry on the conversation?
Yobama890sCat
Sure, she's fun to talk to and we get on. We work together and it's nice to have another friend, just gotta make sure it stays friendly
SyeWatts
Then you are a good guy as well as a gent :D
AccioHockey
I tried that once. Dude lost his shit.
VirtualChessLessons
Was it a subtle mention? Was he actually flirting?
BreadyStinellis
Why does it need to be subtle? If I'm not single I'm telling you not to waste your time.
VirtualChessLessons
Amusing 7 idiots would downvote simple questions. But no it doesn't have to be subtle, but there is a difference between a guy chatting (1)
VirtualChessLessons
with you and saying you look cute and you bluntly responding I have a bf or just saying thanks and later in the chat mentioning the bf. (2)
BreadyStinellis
I agree. But when that doesn't work, we're forced to be blunt and cold.
BekahBekah
Always annoyed me that the only acceptable "No thanks" seems to be saying I'm already claimed. Can't it just be No? 1/2
gewalt
woman think we like playing hard to get. maybe some of us do. I dont know, I always took the hint, but I guess we all dont
ThrowAwayAcct0000
I found that saying "No" is just followed with lots of questions. Saying you have a man, however, USUALLY makes them back off. USUALLY.
somerandomtwat
also that not the only acceptable reason.its only a small % of people that dont accept no
BekahBekah
Us galz don't demand reasons why a man flirt w one girl, but not the other. Not ur type? No worries. We cool. Dudes u gotta learn 2 chill.
blinblambloo
Ok that’s not true at all rejected a girl and she started screaming at me about how I must be gay to reject her body. And that I’m an idiot
somerandomtwat
if you turn down a girl they get just as upset in fact ive seen it be worse because some pretty women are not used to people saying no
somerandomtwat
because men dont usually turn down pretty women. the only reason this is more common in men is because men make the first move more often
AeternalDreamer
Dangeous move on her part, though kind. Some men still wouldn't take the hint, or just wouldn't care.
somerandomtwat
very few. it not really a reason to be a dick to someone just because they might not take the more subtle hint
AeternalDreamer
If someone came on too strongly with me after I gave them clear hints, I'd shut their advanced down right then and there.
somerandomtwat
yea after you have given them hints. dont just be a dick out of nowhere
AeternalDreamer
I wasn't condoning being a dick out of the gate, no.
somerandomtwat
yea i know im just putting it out there because some people (again just a few) think its an excuse to be a dick to people
