What is the most awkward encounter you've had with another man?

    I read a lot of stories from women on Reddit talking about creepy things male strangers and other guys they know do; almost all of them sexual.

    Since talking about creepy people all the time can be quite draining, I wanted to spin the question and ask if you had an experience of something less distressing like awkward behavior from a guy/boy who you didn't know in your social circle but was still very discomforting enough to be memorable.

    I think it's better not to read those things and concentrate on all the lovely things men do :)

    Remember there is far more good in the world.

    I am struggling a little to see exactly what you mean by 'awkward behavior' in this context. Can you give a few examples maybe?

    The most awkward encounter is when a guy asks you out and you say thanks but you're not looking for anything right now and then they go on and on trying to get you to go out with them or worse, asking what's wrong with them. There's nothing wrong with you but asking me out doesn't mean you get to quiz me up on my life. Fair play to you for having the nerve to ask but move on without making it awkward for both of us.
