I am recently single, and have found that although I am now ‘available’ and ‘on the market’, I most of the time hate men’s approaches.

Ironically, when they disguise their motivations with innocent conversation starters, all I can think of is ‘when are they gonna switch to creepy?’

I prefer when guys come outright and say they think I’m cute or something, so long as I have a way out.. If I don’t have the option to walk on and smile in response, and instead feel cornered into responding, with no easy escaping the guy, it makes me very uncomfortable, even if I am interested.

I’m wondering if anyone else feels this way about getting hit on, or if I’ve become prudish or too frightened.
