Jen,
You are asking the wrong crowd here. We're all a bunch of horny guys. We have no idea what a woman should do to stop getting hit on all the time. We're just trying to muster the courage to hit on more women and make it seem like we're not.
Getting hit on too much is, uh, (how do I say this without sounding arrogant)...not really a problem for any of us.
My advice:
1.) Stay out of bars and other places where men consume alcohol.
2.) Wear uglier clothes.
3.) Don't spend time putting on make up and doing your hair.
4.) In short, the more dike you look, the less you're gonna get hit on.
Don't worry too much though, once you get old and out of shape, the guys who are fawning over you now won't give you the time of day. The odds of you staying hot when you're over 35 are extremely slim. I'd try to enjoy it if I were you.
lmao
Actually, some of us do have an idea... and do have a problem getting hit on to much at times (when my students bring me in to thier set to wing and as soon as I open my mouth the the targets shift all thier IOI's to me... thats a problem)
As for the long time guy friend who just never gets the point... I know some guys who have done this, and I know alot of women who have had to deal with it. It's a hard one because there are a few possibilities, but I've yet to see any that are truly efficient.
Pretty much you have 3 options as I see it:
Ignore the problem, and nothing will change. He'll just keep at it... likely until hell freezes over.
You could let hell freeze over and sleep with the guy... granted I think that would be a kin to someone like me sleeping with one of my sisters friends who's had a crush on me since we were all kids... might not be the best idea unless your ready for some serious clingyness.
Lastly if you want it to stop, you need to put your foot down and explain that. Let him know you are just friends and thats all you'll ever be, and that it makes you uncomfortable when he hits on you. And also that if he refuses to respect your feelings on this that you can no longer even be his friend.
So as you can see each way has a plus and a minus... risk vs. reward. This guy is likely what we call a "plower" he just keeps plowing ahead no matter what the resistance... some guys think this is the way to attract a woman. Honestly those are the only 3 ways I can come up with right now to change the situation. The choice of what to do is now up to you.
