Ways To Avoid Men? by Gracious10: 12:29am On Sep 27, 2012
Often times men approach me, I try to be respectful,friendly and accommodating. They usually leave their phone numbers to contact them which I never call them. Sometimes they insist to have my number which I give them with hesitation and next thing I see are tons of calls a day which I ignore. Not that am being a snub, I really don't know what they want and refusing to give my number may be seen as being too forward (insinuating that they want r/ship with me) or mean depending on who's involved.

So my question is How's the best way to ignore/avoid men without being disrespectful and rude? I just got out of a r/ship and won't want to date anymore.

Thanks.

grin you no serious. It's not a crime to quit trying when you have tried so much. Sometimes peace can be found by just staying a way.

Its quite easy girl, dont give them your number. They will be persistent but as long as they will not steal it from your head, you will be in the safe. You can't continue to joke and laugh about iy but dont leave an avenue where they will be able to contact you.
And if you can't hold out for long, offer to give you e-mail address

Young woman, if it was me i'd hang on till i confirm grin Really defaming excuses isn't a option. You can disguise to be married or something. Things like that could spread and be ref you know.

I have repeatedly done this, I have had a guy follow me about in a mall, I didn't have a choice than give him the number. Our nigerian men understands no as a yes and I really don't want to be unruly. Thanks for the tip, I appreciate it.

Its really a problem. I laugh cos thats the best pill to life. And yes, i have been meaner than you can fathom but i find out i get really offeneded in the process and am trying so much not to get angry over issues i can pleasantly take care of.

Thanks though.
