    Getting chatted up by guys you don't like..
    How do you deal with that familiar situation of trying to get rid of a guy you do not like? Sometimes they can't they the hint. Then they end up following you around all night and trying to dance up on you. Arghh.

    Just say, "sorry I'm not interested" - easier said than done though, I guess, once they've had a drink.

    I find this hard as well. I've been indoctrinated in politeness so i find it really hard to just be straight with these guys because i don't want to be rude!

    Luckily my friends are very well trained at rescue missions and be relied upon to bundle me away when they see something like this happens and to keep him away from me all night if necessary.

    Just smile formally and make it a bit obvious that you're more interested in talking to other people - it can seem a bit rude but at least it gets rid of the problem

    a swift knee between the legs should drive home your message loud and clear.

    If its in a random place like a club, just tell them you have a boyfriend. If you have a male friend get them to pretend or even get a female friend to pretend they are your girlfriend. That makes them go away quickly enough

    There are two ways for you to handle this situation:
    1) Instead of hinting, you could always be straight with them. Tell them straight up 'leave me alone FFS your annoying!

    2) Tell him you will scream unless he leaves you alone. Scream 'this man is harassing me!' Then am sure he will make a runner HAHA

    Good luck in the future

    I have found that if you hint at lesbianism, they tend to be even more insistent on hanging out with you, on the off chance they get to see some hot girl-on-girl tongue action. Some men are disgustingly predictable

    Sometimes, and I don't like it and always feel bad afterwards but I can be a bit of a bitch about it. It just makes me feel awkward...
    If they seem like nice guys, then I smile and walk away. Maybe have a hug.
    If they are the typical lads I just turn my back and walk away.
    If they are those cocky ***** who think they are Gods then I might frown at them a little or just shake my head.

    I'll try and stop that though because it seems a bit douchey..
    But some men just seem like such ***** in clubs! They don't act like human beings so I sometimes forget to treat them as such.

    Ah I didn't think of that. Literally just tell them to leave you alone then.

    Doesn't really matter; won't talk to them again. (Even if they're on my campus.)

    Like most guys i've probably been that guy once or a million times (no use sugarcoating it)
    and in a polite way tell them your not interested trust me its so much better that way saves the guys a lot of hassle and means he can move to a new prey (yeh we can sometimes be vile creatures), and you can get a good night saving him further embarrasement and stopping you from feeling like a cold hearted *****.

    Or fart.
