    ooh, did you fuck up

    Yes, I said 'hi' to a girl.

    Her response was 'Sorry you don't appeal to me'.

    I just wanted to know what she was drinking so I could order one too. :(

    aww, that kind of sucks

    but at least she was polite. and she wasn't out to hurt your feelings

    where did it happen? if it's a bar, people can be really defensive

    Kagera I am the best male mate

    I can teach you how to be second best

    for a nominal fee 8-)

    Once he learns that, what's to stop him from killing you and becoming the best himself?

    That girl was polite? What planet are you from? He said "Hi" and she assumed that she was trying to hit on him and told him off instantly, for all she knew he needed to ask for directions somewhere. Girl was rude as hell.

    I guess Zombie's idea of polite is not being pepper sprayed or tasered for initiating a basic conversation?

    well she didn't say "ew, get away"

    like I said, it's possible she was really defensive and it just kind of came out. I wouldn't assume the worst just because you can.

    Zombie, why do you assume the worst of Kagera? Do you think he would leave out an important piece of information where she apologized for blurting something like that out? Kagera is a nice guy, you should give him the benefit of the doubt!

    It wasn't polite, but the setting makes her assumption a fair one.

    And if you try to be polite to guys in bars, I imagine that most will use your politeness as an excuse to drag out conversations or attempt to wear down your resistances.

    I once saw a polite girl on the subway put up with a man twice her age as he engaged her in a rambling, too-familiar conversation for about ten minutes. Eventually she pretended to have reached her stop, then dashed out and took refuge in an adjacent car on the same train.

    Girls should be able to cut the conversations off before they start, even if it means occasionally being rude to guys who don't deserve it.

    Nobody should do that. That assholes exist doesn't mean a person should have free reign to treat everyone they don't know as if they are an asshole. If someone actually starts acting like an asshole, that's when you treat them like one.

    You fend off these guys by being dismissive of them, though.

    Also, in a bar setting where you're likely to meet a few guys like that in one night, the wasted minutes add up and seriously weigh on your patience.

    After enough nights like that, I expect anyone would just decide that blunt, immediate rejection is the best course.

    See? I think this is ok. It was a bar, correct? If she did it to you on the street then yeah, she's probably a narcissistic bitch. But if it was a bar, then she's allowed to be left alone.

    I don't know why you keep bringing up a bar, this wasn't at a bar.

    Two, there are points in a conversation you can be dismissive at other than right after someone says Hi.

    I agree with this

    if this girl is assertive enough to cut someone off on hello

    she is assertive enough to cut someone off mid sentence if it turns out she's actually being hit on

    Telling someone off at a bar (not that this even happened at a bar) after they have said "Hi" is not appropriate. Being at a place with alcohol doesn't give you a pass to have no social skills.

    She probably just assumed you were gonna try to rip her off since she was at a gamestop. It's totally legit.
