I hate when guys stare at me and look me up and down, and then when I return the flirt they get all nervous and look away. To the guy in Starbucks this morning…I was practically taking my panties off and handing them to you….you totally could have had me…oh well…your a wimp.

He probably wasn’t as big of a WHORE as you!
Some of the treatments for std’s can be enough to make someone nervous.
Fuck people, easy on the OP. Just because she flits with someone in starbucks doesn’t mean she is a whore. And she tells a hard truth.
Men in this city need to grow a pair ( not all, but the ones who i am talking about know who they are ). Just check out the Pssst section. its full of guys who couldn’t find the guts to say HELLO!!!!!! to someone. Yet they take to the internet begging for another chance at love.
However there are the guys at the other end of the spectrum who are just as bad. The yelling out of the car window type.
There has to be a happy medium in there that men can, well “man” up to. Walk up to someone, say hello, introduce themselves and wait to be rejected based on looks ;-)…okay maybe thats a little jaded of me, But i digress.
now from the guys side of things. OP – most women have such a stick up their ass when they are in public I am sure he was just a little surprised you actually flirted back, its hard to get some women in this city to even make eye contact let alone flash a smile. He was probably like, “wow, never got this far before. What do I do now?”
So hang on, if you took your panties off, that means your pussy was hanging out…
Been there..I say you girls should give shy guys a chance..otherwise the message can seem like you do want the douchebag who hollars out the car windows because he’s ‘confident’..whatever..you’re probably hot as fuck, and that can be intimidating too. And guys, frigging go for it…these city girls are gorgeous. They have alot of competition.
I think some people just stare at others to make them uncomfortable, and then when they get a dose of their own medicine, they get all bashful suddenly.
I am totally into this bitch for some reason.
lovinglife – i agree totally. the personal touch is always that much better.
however, you’d be surprised with the mind frame of some local ladies in HRM. i was actually once told that, “guys don’t do that. its not normal.” what did i do? i saw someone attractive, walked up to her and introduced myself and started a short chat.
some guys do have the balls to go up and speak to a woman, but apparently its not normal for us to do that!
i asked if sending a text were easier but that would mean i have to acquire their phone number first…
Maybe they were staring at you for reasons other than wanting you, and then you just creeped them out by staring back and trying to have sex with them in public from across the room.
Maybe they were looking at her hairy foofoo valve
Interesting concept… Usually the bitches on this site indicate that every halifax male is some sexually aggressive wacko… kudos to OP for being receptive, as oposed to the usual dirty look. His loss…
I should clarify, some are the above mentioned wackos and deserve said response, but not all of us!
I love it when men flirt with me. Makes my day. I don’t always flirt back but I’m always friendly.
Not normal NGF? Fuck em! If not literally, figuratively. Keep doing what you’re doing there’s nothing wrong with introducing yourself to someone you find attractive.
However,
“Hi, my name is Bob and I find you attractive”
…might not be the best opening line.
“your a wimp” and YOU’RE a moron
He was probably scared of saying the wrong thing or doing the wrong thing. So yes, he fucked up.
Then again, How was he supposed to know you’re easy? Here’s a crazy idea… give him YOUR number. I know, totally not logical at all.
haha, thanks fizz! beezneez you’re great for a chuckle 😀
I agree that you should give the shy guy a chance. I was just like you 5 years ago, but decided to try a shy guy. It took a tiny bit of effort on my part but now I’m married to him! He was a keeper 😛
Shy beats sly hands down.
That’s catchy TTFN
And, it doesn’t take that much to land a “shy guy” or gal for that matter. I’ve always been more attracted to those not attracting attention. It didn’t take long for me to figure out how to strike up conversation with these gals. It took me a little longer to figure out how to avoid “the friend zone”, but once you get the balance, I found relationships with the shy gals a lot more rewarding.
Yeah, ya know alot of shy people deserve just a little more push..not much just a bit..its a thin line, but its harder for shy people to do that. Just a little more work on your part if you’re comfortable with doing so, and it could easily be worth a lifetime of happiness. Otherwise date the loudmouth, overconfident, douche. No wonder so many girls ask themselves, ‘why aren’t there any good guys left?’ or ‘why are all men such pigs?’ C’mon, if you’re so extroverted, then help someone out..instead of getting your kicks out of trying to embarrass some introvert online or wherever else, so his friends take notice..or maybe you’re too abrasive, or get a kick out of picking on boys..or maybe he just saw something he didn’t like in you.
maybe he noticed a pack of smokes hangin’ outta your purse? The man doesn’t have what it takes to please you anyway. Move on.
Guys can’t win. We move too slow = we suck. Wanna move too fast = we suck. It’s a psychological game full of hits and misses and in between is a river of rejection. Yay.
Good for you. I like your style.
fizz: I TOLD NGF that. The whore he chatted up was just a stuck up bitch.
Unless she’s completely socially inept and a huge bitch, most women like it when a polite gentleman comes up to you and introduces himself. Shows that a) he has manners, b) he’s not a pig (because he’s not whistling at you or yelling some lame pick up line) and c) that he has confidence.
and d) he thinks you’re smokin’ HOT! 😀
