How do I spurn a girl's advances?

[Tora Ziyal]

You really only get two chances at that, don't you?

Just 3 times for me. One time the girl was a little drunk and took the gall bladder instead.

"... and that's where the term galling came from..."

This thread needs more tales of spurning.

Agreed. He should show her enormous quantities of spurn! Its really the only way.

Change that from "spurn" to "Sperm" and it will do the job nicely.

Perhaps bottled...

I had to spurn someone once. I'm afraid I was so concerned with making sure the answer was absolutely clear that I over spurned.

"Absolutely not. I would never EVER even consider.."

Yeah, that was me, BTW. Message received, loud and clear!

All you can do is be honest. Tell her honestly, but be smooth about it. Something like you're happy just being friends and you're not ready for a relationship yet. Dunno. The last thing you want is to have her spreading ridiculous rumors about you all over the office.

If it was you and you have actually braved the high tech world of a computer I will have to take out a restraining order..

Just say that you're not looking to date anyone... or that you are already seeing someone. As long as you do it kindly, try not to hurt her feelings. She will feel rejected, but you can cushion the blow a bit. Just don't say anything about finding her unattractive... that would hurt a bit.:P

Nicely played, sir.

No, you're not being an ass at all. You're doing a favor for both of you. I would contact her friend who talked to you and just tell her that you think she's nice but you're not interested in her that way. That seems the simplest. Or, just be upfront with the girl and tell her the same. You can be nice about and just say that you don't want a relationship at this point. In other words, you can make is less about rejecting her. I guess talking to her directly would be best but at the very least, tell the friend.

Mr Awe

Yes, short and sweet. "Thank you for asking, but while I love talking with you, I am not interested in you that way."

I once got a similar message in textspeak. My response was something to the effect that "Given your lack of actual words, I am not certain what you are asking." Never heard from her again.. I am sure she told all her friends I am a stuck up ass.

Really want to spurn a girl's advances? Just come right out and say you were born with both sets of genitalia. And that you once killed a guy with a hammer. If one doesn't get the job done the other almost certainly will.

Some women like danger. Others like experimentation. But none of them like hermaphroditic homicide.

I need to get my eyes checked. My first read through I thought you typed hamster.

Killing a guy with a hamster?

Oh, trust me my friend. It can be done. It can.
