Do you mind when people hit on you?

Contributor: HannahPanda HannahPanda
Do you find it to be flattering or annoying? I'm not talking about really sleezy guys who walk up to you, or girls, just speaking about people who casually hit on you when they don't realize you're taken or not interested. Is it flattering to you moreso than annoying?

Flattering to a point. As in, it's flattering for the first minute or so. When I say I'm married, that's the cue to stop. When it continues past that point, it's annoying.

It's also annoying when it happens multiple times in a short window of time. Example of course being when you go out to a bar or something and you get, like, ten people hitting on you in thirty minutes. I just want a drink already! The first three were flattering. The rest of them are hinging on my ability to have a nice evening. Thus why I don't go to bars without my husband and why I refuse to let him so much as go to the restroom.

I'm socially awkward and don't know really how to respond but I try to be nice even if I'm not interested.

Its always annoyed me. For me it started when I was around 11 or 12 though, cause I got bib boos EARLY! I would have grown men hitting on me, and its definitely annoying. Still is annoying, and I don't like it.

Any flirtation from the opposite sex is always welcome. It's nice to know that you grab others attention.

it depends on how they do it. if it's a sincere flattering compliment, such as today, this boy hollered at me from across the street 'i like your outfit, and your hair.. you're pretty!' and i was feeling especially unconfident in the moment, so i smiled really big, and he said 'i like your smile too!' that made my day.

but guys just vulturing me makes me want to hurl. i'm not much of a fan of macho men for many reasons, and lean towards feminine men for the same. my boyfriend never hit on me, and i dont go for guys who 'hit on' other girls. it's disgusting to me.

I think it's a huge compliment, as long as it's not done in a creepy way and they realize they need to stop when I say I'm not interested.

I usually like it. Sometimes it makes me feel awkward and uncomfortable depending on how they go about it though lol

Sometimes flattering, it really depends on how you look at it! I like for a guy to just.. give me the compliment and leave me to my way.

I find it a bit flattering, but usually I don't give it much thought.

I really don't mean to sound like a prude, but when someone gawks at my body, I get quite offended. I mean sure, they're looking because they are interested in some way, but it really feels like I am being violated. My partner and I and the 12 year old were talking about this last night. I went in the gas station and when I came out my partner was laughing because apparently they'd caught some old man staring at me and A (12 year old) said "He was looking at her down below and ugh! It makes me SOOO mad!" LOL. That was kind of sad that people have no shame. When I catch someone behind me taking a look at my booty I will make a clear point of turning around so they cannot look or like I told them last night when A got upset, if I'm sure someone is trying to look at my chest I look at them with a not so kind face and I jerk my jacket shut.

I just don't appreciate someone staring at my butt or chest in a sexual way. It makes me think "who the F do you think you are? What do you think I AM? An object? Something to hang up and stare at, violate with your eyes?" That may be a strong reaction, but I do have my reasons. It just almost feels disrespectful like they have some right to just think about you in that way. It just bothers me.

I only get upset if I am totally sure that someone's really mean mugging my butt or chest. Those are MY body parts and I don't want others looking at me like that when I have a partner. What PISSES me off is when someone knows us both and will stare at my butt or chest knowing that we're together and monogamous. It truly infuriates me.

It's not flattering to me, it's insulting. Now, if someone says I am pretty or even the occasional "she's beautiful" is nice and I don't take any offense to that. It doesn't make me feel violated. It's the hard "I would F you" looks that make me feel violated.

I don't get hit on, but I'm not out and about to get hit on either. IF I'm alone, its at Wal-Mart and one could look into my cart and realize I have kids (diapers,kids bubblebath etc.)I don't care if my best guy friends make a comment about me being cute b/c I've known them forever so that's ok and they're just being nice.

I love it but that's because I'm an attention whore. I get hit on a lot so I just smile and go along with it. sometimes it even turns into a successful first or seconds date

Actually I don't mind and I provoke it. I am a flirt, my boyfriend knows it and he either enjoys it (he has, is with me) or he ignores it.
It is annoying when a guy under the influence will just not get lost.

I'm a flirt. I won't string someone along if they seem genuinely interested and don't know I have someone, but if they know I'm with my lover and they still flirt, I assume they know they aren't actually going to get anywhere. Sometimes I don't even notice that I'm being hit on until someone else points it out... I can be a little dense, I guess. But really, I don't care if people hit on me, it's an ego boost, and I like to think of myself as art when I take the time to look stunning, I should be looked at and appreciated, even though like any art, there's a no touching policy.
