Have you ever had someone tell you they liked you but did it as a joke?

[Anonymous]

I’ve been there and now I don’t believe a word anyone says if they like me.

[HippoDino]

Did they say it was a joke after you rejected them or said you feel the same? If they say it after getting rejected its a defense mechanism and they actually did like you. Ifnthey said it after you said you like them then they are an asshole, that's also gotta be pretty rare.

The second part

[HippoDino]

Well he's just a dick then, that has to be rare don't assume most guys are like that.

[Asker]

I just have my guard up. I have major trust issues.

[HippoDino]

Its fine to have your guard up, but don't let it stop you from admitting you like them, the chance of another guy doing that to you is so low.

[Asker]

I wish it was that easy for me. I have so much bad luck with men that I’ve decided to keep my distance.

[HippoDino]

Well, maybe try finding a man on an online dating platform. This way you can speak with them before meeting and just be more comfortable on the actual date.

Yes when I was a kid in maybe 5th or 6th grade a girl asked me out so that everyone could laugh at me.

I had never had friends anyways and never did well into adulthood. So I was used to being bullied. But it was the first and last time a girl ever bullied me.

[Radiate143]

No. But flirting to get me to like them then ignoring me if I recirocate. That's happened a lot.

[Jazzy54]

Nope. Guys have always been upfront with not liking me.

[LiamJHayden]

I had third parties do that in middle school. It was annoying. If a girl had ever done that herself I would have just walked away because the type of people who find that funny are not the type I'd want in my life anyway.

Yep. Happened three times to me. Two times in highschool and some years ago in university. Now it makes me really skeptical when a girl tells me she likes me. I didn't even believed my ex when she told me she loved me.

[Anonymous]
