Have youmet any weird boy/girl that tried to pull you?

hey everyone, i just want to share my experience and hope someone that have similar experience would post what had happened to them.

here we go:
on Friday, i went to the bus station to get a bus to Edinburgh for some reason. I saw 2 guys wearing the same jacket and a lil bit weird looking like. one of them saw me. when i went to have a sit at the stop, he sort of say hi when i looked up, but i was meant to look at somewhere els so i only glance at him for 0.1 second lol. so he thought i didn't notice and was like "damn". after a few seconds, he came closer and i knew he would try to talk to me but i was not i a mood to talk , especially to HIM. so i pretended to look at the ground and he kept standing infront of me to wait till i look up but i just kept looking down till he turned away. so i looked up after that, i saw him sort of make face expressions to his friend and his fried was like "go on mate!", then i kept staring at the ground again, when he turned around, till he went away lol. when he was standing close to me i thought "damn you, F*** off u weirdo, who do u think you are, trying to pull me huh:rolleyes: ".

i thought that guy was F***ing hularious and thought this should be shared. Anyone have another story?

thought i'd share wot happened to me yesturday:
i was crossing the road when this wierd guy started saying hello and thinking he was speaking to someone else i ignored him and walked off. he then rode passed me on his bike waited for me to get to him and then tried to speak to me. i had my headphones on so couldnt really hear what he was saying but i think it went along the lines of "wots your name" i just ignored him and walked on but its a bit hard to get away from someone on a bike! at this point i became convinced he was just going to steal my bag so walked along holdng it closely (had all my revision stuff in he was not going to take that away from me!) next he started to ask me to go and see his house so i told him i couldnt hear him with my earphones in. he actually tried to take them out so i started walking even faster and after a couple of minutes got to a busier road and crossed over.
now i think it was quite funny but it was actully a bit scary at the time but some people should just realise when you are definetly NOT interested!!!

Yup I get all sorts at work - part and parcel of being a barmaid. Someone tried to get to me by coming behind the bar the other week so I shoved him back off and the door-staff kicked him out :biggrin:

this is why the girl always has to ask me out....
im too afraid of getting my hopes up for ppl like u, only to have them thrown back in my face.

well if he's a guy that i know it wouldn't be a problem, but he's the person that i never met and was really creepy looking so that's what most girls will do. IT shouldn't be a prob to ask a girl u know but if u're trying to ask a stranger out....erm...good luck then.:rolleyes:

u wouldnt do the same if he was good looking would you?
i dont think its about him being a stranger...(thats just what i think)

if he's a good looking guy he'll not try to pull me anyway cus most good looking guys are emo. no offence but this is what i thought. i'll do the same even if he's good looking( who would want to speak to a strnger when u have to wake up at 6.30am to catch the bus?! NOT ME)

I think you're spot on. Do people honestly think that nobody is willing to be chatted up by "a stranger". How do you think people meet each other for the first time? I met my last girlfriend because she randomly approached me near the bar at a club and we started talking -she was a random stranger at the time and I didn't think "freak, how DARE you try and pull me" like this arrogant girl who posted the thread did.

The problem a lot of girls have is that they expect to be approached exclusively by males they find attractive, but the world doesn't work like that. Everybody will have to deal with the situation in life that somebody who they do not find attractive will like them and take the courage to approach them. You aren't obliged to go out with anyone but people do deserve respect even if you don't find them attractive.

lol just happening too often now for my liking :rolleyes: still its only ever a good thing if someone comes up to you, even if you dont like them

Frankly, why would you want to pull some random. God knows where they've been.

Reply 16

lol i dont mean "yeh ok, i dont like you, but lets just go along with all of this anyway for a laugh" just mean that you should try to just take it as a compliment instead of being freaked out and irritated

Yeh once in the SU a girl came up to me and said "hi can i pull you"
I said sorry your not really my type and she started crying and ran out.

I was like err sorry?

I don't think the problem is with unattractive strangers asking people out in itself, but with where and how they do it. Being chatted up in a bar is flattering whoever it is.

Being approached by a stranger while you're on your own at a bus stop/on the street can be threatening. If I'm on my own in a quiet place for whatever reason, I don't care how good looking he is, I just want to be left in peace.

I once got off a train in the dark and a guy followed me trying to chat me up. After a little while he gave up, only to reappear in the car park I was headed towards where fortunately I was meeting my dad. I found the experience very scary indeed.

Obviously following a girl in the dark is not on but before I came to uni I used to live in Wythenshawe in Manchester and people always used to talk to randoms there at bus stops and so on. When I came to uni I started doing the same thing and got mixed reactions with some girls looking quite offended that I'd attempted to strike up a conversation with them, although I wasn't sleazy in any way. I've stopped doing it now but I think it's sad that people aren't more friendly. I don't know whether its a southern thing that people want to mind their own business.

But again I do think a lot depends on the attractiveness of the 'random', I certainly wouldn't take offence if a hot girl started chatting to me and I doubt many females would try and get rid of Brad Pitt if he met them in a random location.
