[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m fine with someone striking up a conversation in an appropriate setting. But if I’m clearly busy, or you’re just giving me a compliment or asking for my number, it’s obnoxious.

Example: having a conversation while we’re at the dog park is fine. Chasing me down while I’m out walking my dog is not.

Basically, I want to know you’re interested because of who I am, not what I look like. [/quote]

If someone is just hitting on me right from the start, I make two assumptions.  [b]1) He is only hitting on me because of something superficial[/b] 2) He probably hits on everyone who he thinks is decent looking which is a pretty big turn off for me[/quote]
Why is this a turnoff? He may be "hitting on you" but that doesn't mean he wants to marry you, date you or even have sex with you. This just means he finds you physically attractive, and this is just one criteria for a romantic partner. He can probably also infer some things about you based on appearance--health, fitness, maybe socioeconomic status. Presumably he'd talk to you  to see if he would want to interact further and possible date to see if he would like to take things further. If he had the opportunity to observe other characteristics he finds attractive, he might want to approach you based on that. In reality, there are few opportunities to interact with someone without physically seeing them.

[b]What's wrong with wanting to learn more about a person based on the way they look?[/b][/quote]
