Is it normal that I am rejected by people who flirt with me?

  • "started having guys occasionaly give me attention, sometimes even to the stalker level"

    Not one person who ever says so has a "real" stalker, they are quite rare and don't stop until they are in prison or dead. People confuse "stalker" with a "mild harasser" lol.

    • Yeah...I did exagerate there haha, I'm actually referring to those desperate guys who text you all day even if you don't reply and randomly appear wherever you are and stuff. They creep me out xP

      • I kinda think there are two different things going on here. I think the "desperate guys who text you all day even if you don't reply" usually tend to be relatively harmless but I wouldn't carve that in stone. I basically just ignore their texts but if I thought the person was extra creepy I might save the texts in case I need them for legal reasons.

        When I was in college I had an this stupid jerk who would "randomly appear wherever" I was and it did escalate to the point where he was outside my dorm room honking his car horn, flashing his brights and calling my name. I did end up calling the campus cops and he finally left me alone after that. But the shitty thing is that before all of that there were people who thought his behavior was cute and that he just had a crush on me. Ugh!

        • Wow, that's extra-creepy! My worst situation was this guy who would knock on my dorm room door multiple times every day and kept trying to get inside. He also tried to convince me to randomly get into buses to faraway places with him and brought rape up as a casual conversation topic more than once... My friends say I'm a creep magnet...only the creeps like me.

          • Yuck! I actually think yours has me beat on a creepiness scale. I'm thinking maybe the thing isn't being a creep magnet so much as being too polite to them. Creeps tend to have a certain level of social retardation where they just can't take a hint. Don't be mean but be firm in stating that you're not interested and want to be left alone. Also you don't have to be friendly with everyone just to be polite. Being civil is fine too. If someone keeps showing up at your door you can tell the RA or campus cops. I hope this helps.

      • Say "go away you naughty harassers! Stop molesting me with texts!"
