    Someone recently told me I wasn't their type. Has this every happened to you and/ or how do you feel about this?

    Hasn't happened to me, but if/when it does, I'll just have to take it in stride. Attraction is a two way thing, and if it's not happening mutually, you have to build a bridge, move on, and find the next person. :slight_smile:

    I've had a guy tell me that. Was my best mate actually. He went on to tell me my flaws... Oh... we have issues...

    You see every word dripping with bitter hatred that can only bloom with love. haha

    There is apparently a member of EC who finds me to be flat out ugly. And fat.

    I find him to be as deep as a puddle.

    Been told by millions of people that I'm not their type, their loss, I already found my partner so no need to hook up with people who will find me unattractive and ugly, fat, you name it.

    It hasn't happened to me, but I guess the only thing to do in that situation is to just move on, and start trying to have fun again to kick it out of your mind hehe.

    yeah its not that big of a deal. some people just arent attracted to other people as much. atleast they arent lying and leading you on.

    I haven't ever had anyone say that to me, but I've told someone else that, the guy actually wasn't really happy about it and I got a pretty nasty email after I did. I more or less told him because he wanted to go in a different direction than me, so I thought I would tell him how I feel, but I kind of backfired.

    I haven't ever been told that but I think I'd accept it if I was. There are some types of people/styles that I'm just not attracted to... eg that "spikey dykey" look just turns me off even though about 75% of lesbians seem to do that X( So if someone told me I wasn't their type, that would be sad, but it's life. You can't expect everyone to like your look. Although I understand how it could be discouraging and painful.

    but the best you can do if it happens is to move one cause you might be someones typr
     
  18. How rude! Just brush it off and don't let it get to you :slight_smile:

    Anyways, the whole "not my type" thing? To be honest, I think it's ALL a bunch of nonsense.

    I've used it.

    Mind you... it was to a girl. So I think it was justified...
