I'm not the prettiest girl in the world. I'm rather plain. However, that does not stop men from talking to me.
I've gotten some doozies in my day. Once a man at a bar (go figure) asked me "What do men usually say to pick you up?" Yes, let me do your job for you. Perhaps I can make it even easier and just get in your car and take off my underwear. Dumbass.
The grocery store seems like a better place to be, less obvious than a bar. But no. I once had a guy siddle up to me and begin discussing cat food with me. In detail. The food his cats would and WOULDN'T eat. It wasn't attractive at all. Get a manly dog or some shit. Don't tell me about your cat.
People can get creative too. This is the best. I went to WalMart (I know, it's like I'm asking to meet weird people) to do some cheap shopping. I'm shuffling through the aisles, doin my thing, when a man walking by kind of eyeballs me and my cart. You can tell when someone is about to say something to you. He started cheesing, inhaled and said "Hey ma, I see you have brown rice. Do you like your men like you like your rice?" I was stunned. Usually I have some witty come back, but I just stood there, slack jawed. I wanted to say "NO"! But would that imply I was racist? I definitely don't want to be viewed as racist. At the same time, I didn't want to encourage this dude. I think I just stammered a stream of "No...well, not always...sometimes, I have, but....."
Best Practice: Just say "I have a boyfriend" or "I'm a lesbian."
