Is this true or simply an exaggeration? Does it ever get annoying? |
It's true and likely conservative estimate over a decade. Annoying varies depending on setting and the guy. If I am out with group of friends I have to figure it will happen once over the course of an evening. It's gone way down since I can flash the old "ring of monogamy", but yes, in my 20s we could just go out on a Saturday and fully expect several guys to try at a given bar or club. It only gets annoying when they cannot take a "no" failing to read body language and social cues. You try not to be mean, but some guys keep "come on baby" and then have to assert you're not interested and get called a bitch. It distorts reality in dating because douchebags can ruin an evening while a desirable guy either doesn't go out or doesn't approach. I met my husband randomly at a book store and it felt more natural because we weren't thinking about it, just ended up striking a conversation and then evolved into the arcade (I won at DDR by the way...) and a dinner date. I doubt he ever would have been at a club or asked me out at a bar.
