When someone interessted in you, isn't your type...

[Catta]

I'm old fashioned, so I'd probably sleep with them then not call them.

Old-before-the-phone-was-invented-fashioned.

[Maggoo]

Haven't experienced it in years, but when I dealt with it I considered how far away from "my type" they were, as "my type" was filled with unrealistic expectations, then proceed from there, tell them I was not interested in them. I don't feel empathy for people so it was quite easy actually.

[Namarus]

Being an Englishman living in America, I have a lot of American girls who make a play.

Honestly I give them a fair go, I don't see any reason why I shouldn't. I may not be attracted to them physically but they may have a personality that I may end up liking. So generally I never instantly reject, I will go out at least once before gently letting them down if things don't work out. There is no reason to be a douche about it.

Get your MD, join an Army Reserve unit, get an instant promotion to Captain then reap the rewards.

Bitches for everyone!

[Khaza-R]

Be stern, honest but empathetic. Don't leave any ambiguity on how you feel, the worse thing you can do is give that person false hope.

I usually tell them "I'm not interested." in the nicest way possible. Sometimes they are just too thick to understand when they're getting rejected and that's when the truth comes in handy. It isn't very nice but it's necessary to get the message across in some cases.

You impregnate the woman and then turn her down. As a male it is your job to spread your glorious genes.

Except for the chair force, those poor bastards never get laid.

[Coombs]

If you're a guy tell her you're not looking for a relationship but treat her like gold and get the occasional BJ. If you are a woman giggle and say you aren't looking for a relationship and get him to buy you things while sleeping with men you are attracted to. Seems to be how it is mostly done lol.

[Lady Tygry]

Honest, but tactful. I had this come up a couple times during my college years. One was someone that I dated for a short while wanting to give the relationship another try-- I assume he was on the rebound as the e-mail he sent was out of the blue. I simply told him that I didn't feel the same way and that all of our old problems would be back to haunt us. Never heard from him again.
The second was someone who genuinely wanted to get to know me but I suspected we had nothing substantial in common. I told him this but when he pushed, I went on a few dates with him. He was a nice guy but we really had nothing in common and he was looking for someone else-- maybe he thought I would change, I don't know. I tried to let him down gently, telling him we could try to make a friendship work but he couldn't really handle that so I ended up severing all ties. He respected my wishes.

MD's must not make shit in England, because the garbage you make at drill once a month even as a Captain is just a huge waste of time.

Shhhh, we don't want to hurt their feelings though I'm pretty sure PJ's and CC's get laid all day (when they're actually home that is and I have no idea what the British Special Ops are).

I'll just go up to every chick and say, "Yeah I'm Special Forces", doesn't even matter if I'm lying, I won't even see her the next day. No but seriously, I'm not that shallow.

[Sainur]

Never had any luck with women, but my reaction would depend on who it is / what kind of personality or style she has and it would also depend on the situation.

[Deleted]

Other, bang her then tell her you aren't interested. Standard procedures guys cmon.

[Deleted]

It does not bloody hurt, thats for sure.

If you're uniform hurts then maybe you didn't remove the label, nasty things those

Also the firefighter uniform is probably a lot more succesfull then a soldiers one...

.. brb, joining the fire brigade!

[bayushisan]

You don't have to use avoidance tactics but polite rejection isn't a bad thing. You can be honest, and be polite about it. The two aren't mutually exclusive.

[Stir]

Of course I'd sugarcoat it. But I wouldn't lie about it, either. I'd tell them I just don't reciprocate their feelings, but leave any kind of 'you're not my type' OR 'not looking for anything' out of it (in the hypothetical scenario that I'm single).
Just 'I'm sorry, but I don't feel that way about you' is enough. I don't have to make them feel bad about themselves or lie.

Only if they're incredibly persistent and hard to shake off will I be harsher.

[Skayth]

It does not bloody hurt, thats for sure.

Not the uniform, its the stache. the 70's porn stache.

For myself, I am brutally honest and pretty blunt. Dont get me wrong, I attempt to make it sound polite, but if she is spoiled brat that slept with everyone, I am going to tell her exactly that.

[Zangeiti]

Tell them straight up that you aren't interested and if they make a big scene about it then you are definitely better of with out them.
