How do you react when someone approaches you romantically

[Section_31]

Wave my wedding band. That creates an invisible, inpenetrable, protective shield!!.

Though whats scary is ive had 1 or 2 women who used to work in my office who were trying to drop hints with me, i showed my ring, and that only made them chase me more. I finally had to talk to HR because it was getting first scary, then annoying.

I ACT AS NoRMAL AS POSSIBLE BUT IN M HEAD IM literally COUNTING UP THE SECONDS TIL THEY WALK AWAY&neverrrr call them...

Nobody has ever approached me romantically. I had a girlfriend, but I did all the approaching in that case.

If someone ever did, I wouldn't know what to say... so I'd probably not say anything. Which would probably send the wrong message.

I would run away screaming if I didn't think that was rude.
haha
But it would hurt their feelings, so I don't.

I react with mainly shyness but I can feel the fear fill my mind.

Many people want to "find someone", well..... how about "keeping someone"? That's probably the hardest part of all. And in the end, it probably won't work out anyway, not for as long as you'd plan for, so you have to prepare to say goodbye to them one day.

Okay, so that last part was extremely negative, but I think it's true. People don't really stay together. Eventually, it gets old and they move on. *shrug*

Don't have kids. lol

Yea, I have this problem. Over the past half year, I had been out with 3 different guys, with one lasting from a couple of dates (the other person showed explicit interest, I wanted to progress further as well, but didn't know how to) to a couple of weeks to a couple of months. None worked out, not sure what is wrong with me, or what I did that called the entire thing off.


Back to the question of how one reacts when someone shows an interest. It'll depend on who. If the guy is a guy I feel comfortable with, I'm ok with it. I have attracted one or two, who were pretty good catches, and in this case, I became shy and intimidated, so obviously nothing ever happen. In fact, I had to leave one company because I wanted to avoid the guy, unbelivable.

Not too bad. My real anxiety comes with me having to approach people I don't know real well.

I'm fine when people approach me.

I just stay silent and walk away, even if they're in the middle of saying something. It's rude, i know, but i think they were being rude approaching me in the first place.
