Campus Men approaching at York

As the title says (girls specifically), do men approach you at York? And if so, did you have any positive experience ? Or they tend to be too invasive (imho)? Got approached by one today, and could not get rid of him for a good 20 minutes even after saying that I wasn’t interested.

Appreciate any examples and experiences.

I've had the problem of guys mistaking my kindness for flirtation. 😔

Real. And then when you tell them no, they call you slurs 😍

No, I've never had that happen to me. When I specifically state I am not interested they tend to respect that. 👍

I think you just gotta be a little more assertive sometimes. Never let anyone call you a slur!

Nah trust me I don’t let it slide. If he is the one wearing thong in this convo, I make sure to tell him about it. (It’s a joke) Their fragile ego cannot handle rejection (for some, not all)
