[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need to set some standards here, being hit on propositioned or flirted with is a gigantic gray area. What isn’t hitting on someone: A man giving a polite smile while you pass each other in a hallway, street or grocery store aisle is not hitting on you. A man making polite conversation in a waiting room is also not hitting on you. a man holding a door is not hitting on you. What is hitting on someone: You are beautiful, are you free for lunch? I have never been so fascinated by someone so quickly, please God tell me you’re not married? my flight doesn’t leave for four hours, would you like to come up to my room to relax a while? That necklace lands in the most perfect spot on your neck, I’m sorry but I can’t concentrate on anything else. So what’ll ll it be girls, are you being hit on or are these just everyday social situations where people are being polite to you? [/quote] Yeah, I agree. i earlier answered this thread saying as a married male I had never been propositioned, but then reading some of these other comments... sure, I've been out at a bar, and a woman I didn't know will start talking to me, and maybe something complimentary, and I'll smile and say thank you and chat for a minute and then walk away. A couple of times, I've thought, she was nice... and then it dawned on me, she was trying to start a conversation—but that's a far cry from offering me sex. Another time, I was riding my bicycle and a man rolled up next to me while we waited at a light and started chatting and was extremely friendly, complimenting my bike and my interest in bicycling and he very solicitously suggested he would be happy to bicycle with me sometime. I rode away thinking the DC bicycling community REALLY IS a friendly place... and a few blocks away, I remembered it's really not and the dude was flirting. But still not an offer of sex. [/quote]
