    I tend to get on much better with guys than I do with girls and I don't know what it is about me, if I seem easy or something (and I'm not at all). But guys have absolutely no respect for me. Off the top of my head, any guy I've been friends with at some stage have sent me rude snaps or felt me up. My housemate, who was more like my brother to be honest, lads ive trusted to be my friend because they've had a girlfriend and this disgusting old guy who worked with my mother, in his 40s, messaged me when I was 20, randomly asking me if I was up for having "hot fun" with him. There's the middle aged guy that tried lead me into the bathrooms of my dads local one night.

    I'm not giving off any signal, I don't dress like an easy girl, I don't sleep around. It's infuriating that guys (even old ones) just assume ill be grateful for their lewd attempts to take it further. And what's worse is, I'm the one left feeling bad about it. I feel bad that a married man asks me for sex on Facebook, yet he can parade up and down the street, with his wife without even flinching and I feel terrible.

    You're not the first one Lexie and you certainly won't be the last either.
    I've lost count of how many times I have been 'approached' (for lack of a better word) by guys ...married, in relationships and single .... for sex since I was 13 years old.

    Christ. Most of my friends are guys, some gay, some straight. I don't have a group of just gf's. Always hung out in mixed groups. I've never experienced the above and have been besties with 2 of them since I was 12. I was just out last night with a group of them actually. I love them all, couldn't ask for better friends. I only have 3 or 4 close female friends....

    Gawd, I must have a face on me like a slapped arse. :(:pac:

    Not all men are like that Lexie, there are idiots & self-entitled people in all walks of life.

    No need to feel bad.

    Got a punnet of grapes in Aldi this morning & wrongly assumed they were seedless.

    Not as much enjoyment eating them when spending half the time spitting seeds out every few seconds. There is no refined way of removing them apart from that. :mad:

    Stick your tongue in through the centre, open it up and scoop out the little pod of seeds with your tongue

    Lexie you need to work on your bitch face. Though if you have one, like me, you have to expect people to tell you to relax and cheer up.

    I think I have the ultimate bitch face, I hate smiling because I've two massive dimples in my cheeks that make me look deformed and I'm real self conscious of them because anytime I do laugh or smile, people always comment on them. Bleh

    Are you super nice to everyone? I've known a lot of girls who have been super nice to everyone, and amongst that "everyone" you have the desperate guys who can't get laid, and because you're nice to them they mistake it for flirting and think they have a chance with you, so they go for it.

    Just a theory that I've seen in action numerous times.

    Apache Pizza. They're gone shite since they started flogging all their pizzas for a tenner - you think we haven't noticed you've gone scabby with the toppings, eh??? Plus they just whacked a three quid delivery charge on them anyway, so it's not even any cheaper. Fukkers.

    Firhouse, why u no haz decent pizza delivery option? :(

    Far from it!! I'd be chatty, but wouldn't be overly friendly. But it doesn't seem to matter because that married dude in his 40s knew me from when I was a child, knew my parents, knew I knew he had a wife and small child. Wouldn't know him to talk to much apart from saying hiya to if I passed him.

    With my housemate, I used to tear strips off him every weekend if he made noise and woke me up. Even when we were lying in bed that time I asked him if he thought I was super cross and he said no not cross just grumpy.

    Then just people I'd be normal friends with. I'm playful, but not flirty.

    Men's be confusing.

    I also feel more comfortable around guys who I know aren't into me and/or have girlfriends, I'm more at ease and completely myself because I assume they're not assholes. Which may explain why most of the dick pics I'm sent/sleezy messages on Facebook are from unavailable guys. I wouldn't give a guy that's into me the time of day when I know it from the start.

    My white South African neighbours are having a bbq, they do a lot of bbq, must be a cultural thing, anyway I don't know what they cook with but it's rank and smells like insect repellant.:confused:

    It was a many years ago, but my husband used to work a permanent night shift. Once in the early hours of the morning our cat brought home a shrew, I'd never seen one, didn't even know we had them in Ireland. I thought it was a baby rat and that there must be a nest somewhere around the house/garden. I got dressed and went up to meet my husband from work. I was too freaked out to stay in the house with potential rats and wouldn't go into the house until he'd checked from top to bottom and told me it was a shrew.
