Far be it from me...

Girls, how do you deal with childish and immature people (men or women) who approach you for dating or toxic friendships?
Translated from Portuguese by Google.

[Genifer Teal]

Politely decline. No need to deal with them. It won't change how they act. I continue to act like everything's normal and they are the one acting out of order.

[alwayshave]

I have had it happen a couple of times. I just politely decline.

[CarlaWestin]

Hasn't happened often but I usually bend the conversation around to how dedicated I am to my wife.

[Debbie Denier]

Like Carla says. Any mention of my wife or marriage usually solves the problem. Funny how they disappear.

' I'm in a relationship.'
If you pass really well, expect to be hit on at any club or bar. Not passing well, some may assume you're gay. Stay away from toxic environments and blend in at safer places.

[Rochal Tukque]

Childish, stigmatizing, prejudiced, seems to be fully on board for the year and probably a good part of the 21st century. Even though we may project that more feminine self. Best be prepared to develop or retain that thick skin because you will need it.
Hugs Rochal

tammileetilliso - well kind of depends - are you available? If someone asks you out and you are available, why not meet them for lunch if you have good intuition about them?
I mean, if I were dressed en femme and a cis-woman asked me out knowing I am a guy, then I'd probably say yes to a lunch date and see what develops.

When I've told men I'm not interested they sometimes persist! I don't go all crazy, I go along for awhile because being one, I understand men!:devil:

After awhile of me telling them not to touch me and repeating I'm not interested in them they eventually ALL move on to greener pastures!:heehee:

[chrissy111]

Thanks, but I'm married usually works.

[Sandi Beech]

I was just thinking about how many times I told men and women in clubs that I am married, and many said , you are married ? Seemingly surprised , so that is enough to divert some. It also shows the misconceptions out there.

I was out in Houston area LGBTQ?bars on many occasions. Honestly, I was hit on many, many more times by women than men. (I?m 6?2? and fit)

I was married at the time and as much as I appreciated the offers, I demurred. In retrospect, well, I was at least honorable.
