Get hit on much? Do tell...

That must be where I'm going wrong! I use a *real* British accent in the states and no one throws themselves at me! I better polish up my fake one :biggrin1:

Try sounding more like Hugh Grant or Hugh Laurie circa Peter's Friends and less like Prince Charles. :wink:

I never got hit on much in high school, but geez...college has been interesting. American women may be one thing, but it seems college girls are another. And I love it :tongue: Last night my frat had a mixer with one of the hotter sororities on campus and a new record was set for individual "oh you have such nice hair" conversations. At least five. I was drunk and wandering around laughing my head off about it. I mean, I appreciate the compliment, but I've heard it literally hundreds of times since 8th grade, and it really doesn't carry much weight anymore. You have no idea how relieved I was later on when I was hooking up with a girl (with whom I'd done the same the night before). Mid make out conversation went "I had heard about you" "Oh really, how so?" "Well, I mean obviously the hair, but more importantly how big you are..."

I'm marked.[/quote] Dude, Sorority girls are known to be sluts nationwide. So if you are in a fraternity and can't score at least once with somebody in your sister organization you're pretty much screwed...and not in a good way.:tongue:

I gotta see it now! Please post a pic of your hair. :smile:

Is that really the reason? I thought it was because if a woman asks a man out, he will always say yes whether he likes her or not. Like he will just use her for sex.

Are you kidding me? Men can, and do say no, I've seen it happen. You've all been deluded by porn into believeing all women should have perfect figures, faces, hair, etc. It doesn't matter how good we know we look at least 85% of us are not going to approach you first. It doesn't matter if we are at a bar, TGIF's, or a mutual friends barbecue.

I have just had a ships in the night affair with an American woman (I'm a Brit). We were both on business in the Far East. Her hit on me was like a Joe Frazier left hook. Maybe American ladies are more forward if they get the chance to get away.

LMAO, Nice analogy! :biggrin1::tongue: When it comes to vacations or business trips, for many Americans all bets are off. It's pretty much an excuse to act like anyone but who you really are.

Definitely no problem getting sex either online or at the baths - but it seems to take an act of congress to get a nice date, no matter how good of a guy I am. San Francisco is a great place to be gay, and it's easy to get laid, but it's tough on gay relationships.

Ha! Funny, that's the case in other places too.

When I was newly single after my last relationship (of twelve years) ended in 2003, I thought I'd be relegated to the "geeky not-young-anymore" category--because that's how I remembered myself from the last time I was "on the market."

Apparently, things had changed in the intervening years! I was approached all the time. Eventually, I was talking to seven men, including a choir director, a nurse, and a bi man. Just talking.

But here's what was strange: Most of them were ready to go right for the meat and potatoes in my pants without even a token attempt to get to know me. I politely would stifle that impulse and ask (instead) for a date. A real date. You know, go out to dinner, take in some culture, kiss at the door, then goodnight. Four of the seven men actually said to me, "No one's ever asked me out on a date before!"

It was an interesting experience. And yes, I ended up with the bi man.

I get hit on alot and as far as me hitting on a guy...well, doesn't happen that often, but when I want a particular man...there are no doubts in his mind as to whether I want him!
