When people say they get checked out/hit on all the time, what does "all the time"

[tanbark813]

Were having what I like to call a converstation, lol!

 

What's a "converstation"?

Yeah. We...um...were..having a conversation.

Yeah I know.

[Pyro]

Yeah I know.

 

So what is this idea of yours?

I don't know yet. I have to tinker with a couple of things.

But I will say this, I was looking at shampoos and this girl was about to walk down the row, seen me, grab her bf and said "oh we're not going down there. He was like "why not."

 

I think you may have spotted Rainfall!

I think when people say "all the time" they are definitely exaggerating. What's the definition of hit-on, btw? I don't know personally, how many looks I get, I'm about as dense as it gets.

 

I've gotten a lot of strangers telling me that I'm pretty, beautiful, good-looking, etc. I make a sincere effort to be friendly and approachable. I do find it a bother sometimes when I am approached by men, but only when they don't back off, even after being informed that I have a boyfriend. Either that, or if they're old enough to be my dad. Creepy! Otherwise it's flattering.

I swear that girl grabbed her guy and pulled him away from where I was at.

Guys don't get the equivalent constant reassurance either, we have to rely on our own self-esteem. And if some days it's not as topped up as it should be and we hesitate to approach, we labelled as having "no balls".

Whenever I hear someone say they always get hit on, I rarely believe them. Most people will think they're being hit on just because a cute girl looks at them. Just because someone looks at you doesn't mean they like you.

 

If the same gender person looks at you, do you take it as a signal that they're gay? I highly doubt it. Most of the time people will go out of their way to find a reason why something was a sign simply to feed their own ego.

 

Many people also say that a person is hitting on them because they approach them in class or whatever and start acting all playful with them. Many times that person acts like that with all the people they interact with, or all the people they find decently attractive.

 

It's when you're in a room with a bunch of people and you see this person constantly looking at you or going out of their way to be with you that's when they're hitting on you. And I highly doubt people get this from a lot of different people on a regular basis.

Not necessarily true.

 

I believe that some guys do get hit on or get looked more often than others and it does nothing but inflate their head and can create a big ego (That depending on the person), but for the most part, it is up to each and everyone of us to keep ourselves happy.

The OP defined getting hit on as all of these:

 

...someone of the opposite gender flirting with them, asking them out, talking to them or simply smiling at them.
