Creeeeeeeper

[Krandor]

for the guys saying that dude wasnt creepy, and that hes just playing "Averages" heres the number of things that have happened because I refused to give someone my phone number (outside of work):

You don't know who the true creepy crazies are and "no sorry" doesnt work 75% of the time. (personal average)

Sure there are some guys who don't take a hint and do stupid things, but that is not all guys. No need to be rude or give a rejection hotline number the first time they ask. Now if they don't take no for an answer then that is a different story. It is not easy a lot of times for guys to walk up to a woman they don't know so until they show they cannot take no for an answer it is best to be polite.

Yeah, if they can't get the hint, then they're definitely creepy. I've never been stalked like that (I'm a guy) but would like to say, "hey dude, wouldn't you be happier knowing that a woman has a genuine interest in you because you're nice and approachable to them, instead of knowing that you're thought of as being creepy because you won't take 'no' for an answer?"

I am one or more of the following: stuck up, a bitch, a prude, a cunt, a whore, a slut. This is usually at high volume from someone a foot taller and a hundred pounds heavier than I am.

Ouch. Sorry you've had such sucky encounters.

I've never had those experiences. If I turn a guy down, that's usually always been the end of it.

I've only had one exception, and yes it was scary. Went to a study session in college, studying for a chemistry final (ironic, no?). One of the girls brought her new boyfriend along. Christmas was coming along and I was making silly cracks about the green M&Ms. Later, I decided to go grab a drink. Girl's BF came with me, and started hitting on me. At first I didn't realize he was hitting on me, or realize what was happening wasn't appropriate (I have Aspberger's), but when we got to the door of the building the study session was in, other girl's "BF" tried to convince me to take him to my dorm room so we could have sex!

I tried to refuse, but he put his arms around me and tried to kiss me, and wouldn't let go when I tried to pull away. I finally got away from him and ran back into the study hall, but I was shaking like a leaf. He came in like nothing happened. I tried to focus on the study session, but couldn't. Finally, I grabbed my books and got up to leave. My friends asked me what was wrong, but I couldn't get the words out. The girl who brought the guy clearly knew something happened by her glares . . . at me.

I went to my dorm, and he followed me, and tried again to get me to have sex with him. I had to slam the door in his face (all girl dorm). After that he made several other attempts to get me to "date" him. I finally told my friends what had happened, and they chased him off.

That was creepy.

Since then I've had instances where other guys have introduced themselves, and either asked me out or asked for my phone number. When I've said no, that was the end of it. No name calling, no attempts to touch me or convince me.

I know there are a lot of creeps out there. But just asking for a date or my number doesn't qualify IMHO.

Years ago, I was shocked when I'd get called names when I turned a guy down.

Now I get a little bit of disappointment in myself if I'm not called a stuck up bitch, a snot, or a whore, or whatever if I turn a guy down.

Wait a minute, that bitch was glaring at you because that asshole forced himself on you? WTF is wrong with her?

Her train of thought probably went on the lines of "How dare you be hot enough to spark his interest? HE'S MINE! *snarl*"

Well . . . I couldn't really blame her for being upset in this instance. She was very insecure, and for good reason.

My brother went to the same college I did. One day we were having breakfast together, when he said, "Oh, no, here she comes."

I looked up, puzzeled. "Who?"
Brother: The Queen.
Me: The Queen?
Brother: The Queen of Ugly.

That's when I realized he was talking about this girl. She looked like Yoda, with Caucasian skin. Same hair, same chin, same ears. Only not too bright (I quit studying chemistry with her because I caught her cheating off me during an exam).

She was just happy someone wanted to go out with her, even if they were just using her for sex. We tried to warn her after the creep pulled his stunt on me, but she wouldn't listen.
