[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hard to say.  But the bigger question:  are you flirting back?[/quote]

No, I'm not. He's very attractive, yet I'm not really attracted to him in a romantic or sexual way.[/quote]

[b]If you're not attracted to him, then it's sexual harassment.[/b][/quote]

Yep...this about sums up the craziness this movement has taken on. If that is the standard then we've all lost our freaking minds!

How the heck is the dude supposed to know if you are attracted to him BEFORE he gives it a go? Maybe it's nothing, but maybe he's just lobbing a few softballs to gauge your reaction, OP. It's not harassment unless you make it clear that his overtures are unwanted. Before that, it's potentially just a guy trying to see if you are into him.

DH and I had the same (ridiculous) argument the other day. I was like "so if Brad Pitt-looking college guy is at a bar and he goes in for the kiss with a girl he doesn't know, it's cool" because it typically ENDS UP WELL for him. If average-looking guy tries to "put the moves" on a girl, and she rebuffs him, that's unwanted and is instantly labeled as predatory or harassment! But he won't know until he tries! Ugly dudes beware. Better get it in writing or you're screwed![/quote]
