FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU-

Fuuuu...!.jpg


Yessir, I dun goofed. There's this guy whose been trying to hang out with me for nearly a month now and I have absolutely no desire to do so... ever. So after declining for various reasons I just stopped responding to his attempts at communication altogether. Today, he ambushes me on my house phone (which I only answered at my mom's request) and I end up telling him we could chill for a bit. For once in my life I was unable to quickly come up with a convincing lie to throw someone off my tail :bawl:.

I know I messed up and I'm hoping to whatever omnipotent deities that may or may not exist that I haven't opened a door to unwanted friendship but if that is indeed the case what the hell do I do? Obviously, no more answering the house phone but I need a strategy.
 
Put the moves on him. It'll either creep him out, and chase him away, or it could be the start of something wonderful. Try a little candle light and some Al Green......

I totally agree, man love is a beautiful thing and you owe yourself this experience while you're young - No sense in missing out on what could be a lifetime's enjoyment :)

Exactly what I was going to say.

And if he does fall for the sweet side. Try showing up at his place with a gimp mask for him. I'm pretty sure he'll break before you.

If not, well, hard luck dude!
 
ROFL, you guys suck so bad! I managed to come up with somethin' to get him outta my house so that's that. As of 3 minutes ago I've instituted a complete communication black out. Cutting all forms of contact. With any luck that'll be the end of this extremely uncomfortable episode. Hangin' with him is like having your parents catching you watching porn just extended over a longer period of time :rollno:.
 
hmm....

be as annoying as possible, never shut up about your ex - if you have no ex than never shut up about "this girl", or maybe talk about "strange feelings". I think the best idea is to be REALLY flakey, that would work best with little to no chance of backfiring.

Or maybe just get out the hockey mask and the hatchet...

sorry for double posting, I've been with a guy like that.
 
I wish I could be pestered by a hot chick just once to see what it was like. My record for awkward persistent encounters is something like five dudes and one girl... They're just drawn to me :(. This wouldn't be a problem if I was a complete douchenozzle.

I said it once and I'll say it again -Singers get chicks. Acoustic guitarists get chicks. Hell, even drummers get chicks. Bass players get dudes who want to talk gear. You chose poorly my friend :p
