I’m saying this mostly in response to the comments on this post. When men have shown an interest in me and I wasn’t interested in them, I’ve both hinted my lack of interest and also flat out said I wasn’t interested. With both methods, I’ve had men get more insistent and/or flat out angry. I’ve been called a bitch. Why bother asking if I’m only allowed to say yes? Skip the whole pesky asking part and just forcibly carry me somewhere. Or rape me, you stupid assholes. Why not? It’s scary, the thin veneer of normalcy that instantly fades after you dare to say no. Whenever that happens I’m thankful the red flag waved so early.

DUDE. You think a 6 hour delay in texting means you can call someone a bitch?

Are you also allowed to smack someone for not getting dinner on the table on time cuz she was talking to her mom on the phone?

I mean, like, how nasty are you allowed to get if someone doesn’t behave the way you want ‘em to?

Dudes like you give us all a bad name. Here’s a hint; someone behaving poorly doesn’t give you a right to threaten ‘em. Or call them names. It’s threatening.

HA! Not me!! Both of my sons are married.

I’m not training any more men!

Good for you, Canthz_B. Now go out and convince other men to grow up, so women will have less reason to drop hints and not be direct.

It’s not just the implicit test of your honesty. If a guy does that he’s essentially telling me that women give him fake numbers all the time. It’s kind of pathetic to make an admission like that to someone you’ve just met.

His very quick descent from “Hey, wanna go out” to “Fuck you, bitch” makes it pretty clear he had gotten the hint. In my experience, many men pretend not to understand not-so-subtle hints in an attempt to wear women down. It doesn’t work.

By the way, Chris, women are conditioned to be nice and never say “no” to a man. And when we are assertive, we’re sometimes verbally or physically attacked. In short, shut your trap.

I never went back to check this but Lauren’s comment totally made me LOL. Essentially lying and being rude is part of dating and is perfectly acceptable. Gotcha. Being mannerly and honest and saying “I really would prefer you not call me anymore” is far too much to expect from a civilized human being.

I cry for you kids and the future where “hints” are a totally acceptable way of communicating.
Wait, not only acceptable but should be EXPECTED.

I need to go home and make sure my son isn’t such a fool but I know I raised him right so I am not overly concerned.

Again, the guy was an ass but where is the personal responsibility of the girl who gave her number and then did not communicate that she wasn’t interested? Apparently, she has none.

Now THAT is a fail.

And so marched the surprisingly attractive and downright sexually magnetic PAN feminists, leaving a trail of snide remarks and immasculating any asshat who laid in their wake. After that day, the woman’s burden of phone numbers was no more.

clearly he is psycho and sexist, that is why she is too scared to respond. Dumb too

That’s not fair to say she handled it poorly. What’s better? Diplomatically avoiding a scene with a psychopath by giving him your number or telling him flat out you’re not interested so he can go nuts right there in person? If there’s someone she really dislikes she should have given that person’s number – otherwise she did the best she could.

Wow, what a psycho. I often (usually) forget to change my phone from silent or to turn it back on after class or a movie or something. I don’t remember until I need to call someone, open it, and see like twenty messages. I guess that would get me hacked apart by this guy.

Who says women are irrational? It seems to me they can rationalize anything!
