Had my first negative experience getting hit on this weekend by a dude. I was packing up and out of no where in a low, weird voice he said I look really fit and started to ask personal questions. I kept it short but got to the point, “I’m straight, have a nice day.” The dude was shocked and walked away. If he didn’t get the point he was a about a second away of getting told to “F Off”
I been hit on by gay guys before but it was never in a creepy way. Never been uncomfortable around gay people. It was always admiration and liking the confidence. l know that wearing thongs it’s assumed sometimes but man, if this guy’s angle to is be a weirdo good luck.
Anyone else get creepy encounters? Now I know how ladies feel when guys hit on them.
I’ve noticed that when it happens to me the dude isn’t so much gay as he may be the dude “questioning” or “experimenting”. Every bona fide gay I know are super chilled and proper who although enjoys the eye candy their “gaydar” tells them I am not one.
My wife is very blonde and very vulnerable to the sun so I almost always go to the beach alone. I am darker, tan really well and wear as close to nothing as I can. So I frequently get hit on by gay guys at the beach. I usually manage to refer to “we” early in our conversation and most take the hint. I’ve only had to actually say, “sorry, I’m straight” a couple of times over several decades. I don’t ever remember a conversation with a gay guy that didn’t end up being respectful and cordial. I admit that I do sometimes feel creeped out but that’s just me. Sometimes I am able to go with a female friend, besides the welcome company, her presence tends to encourage the guys to steer clear.
The encounters I had with gay dudes has been good. They hit on me but it wasn’t creepy. I tell them I’m straight and one admitted it was “A damn shame” and we all laughed.
