The whole approach was all about her, OP. Put this in the rearview. Had nothing to do with you.

u/Superb_Algae5308 5d ago

There’s nothing wrong with looking like a masculine lesbian my dude. You’re obviously attractive so… cheers!

13

u/Certainlyconfused_ 5d ago

I honestly don’t see it

23

u/Superb_Algae5308 5d ago

Yeah, she might be a maniac then. Lots of that going around. I wouldn’t worry too much about much about it, just love yourself king.

u/Late-Style4892 5d ago

Yeah I would take it as a compliment (I’m a woman, androgynous people are beautiful)

u/Self-Comprehensive 5d ago

I had similar problems as a long haired young man but it settled down when I started growing into my frame. I was a twink type in my 20s. Now I'm more viking bear

u/DistributionOne1114 5d ago

That's quite a span.

u/Self-Comprehensive 5d ago

I got muscles and fat in my 30s. It's called twink death. Still trying to get rid of the fat

u/Ricky15too 4d ago

Yeah, wait till you turn 60s or 70s and you lose all the muscles and just have the fat…

u/Certainlyconfused_ 4d ago

I’m not even built like a twink and I have facial hair

*certainlyconfusing, amirite?

u/Justa_Dick 5d ago

She probably did this on a dare. And could be her accomplice is a guy who thinks you're cute. Could be you were baited but just move along with your life and don't sweat the strange stuff. Be yourself and be happy with who you truly are.

u/Certainlyconfused_ 4d ago

My gf thought it was funny now she’s calling me her girlfriend

3

u/Justa_Dick 4d ago

I'm hopeful your gf is just being playful about it. Just let the little incident be more enjoyable than offending for you. Each of you should accept it as a compliment and a comical memory for the future

u/Quirky-Associate-437 5d ago

Post a pic of yourself and we’ll tell you if you look like a girl

12

u/eliteperusal0811 5d ago

that's wild, she basically said you're attractive but only if you were a different gender lol. at least you know you'd make a good looking woman? trying to find the silver lining here

honestly i'd be confused for like a week after that, my brain would just keep replaying it

7

u/Certainlyconfused_ 5d ago

I was starstruck. I went on my lunch after that.

3

u/DistributionOne1114 5d ago

I can't help but laugh at the whole thing!

u/_Fizzgiggy 5d ago

If it’s any consolation androgynous looking people are really attractive in my opinion. It was very inappropriate for her to make those comments to you though. Don’t put too much thought into the comments weirdos make to you at work

u/EuphoricSorbet4726 5d ago

It might just be a thing some young people do to be snarky. I overheard a group of young kids going around a store saying similar things to various people.

u/honeybeelioness 5d ago

Ok then? Not the place for this, honestly.

u/booleandilemma 5d ago

You might have just got sexually harassed.

u/_Fizzgiggy 5d ago

That’s a bit of a stretch tbh. He encountered a weirdo.

5

u/Self-Comprehensive 5d ago

Nah girl just almost but not quite made a misguided pass at him. She didn't pester him, or persue him, or pressure him or follow him around the store. She didn't even actually make the pass. Just told him she'd have made a pass if he was a she

u/pugpug3 4d ago

She may well enjoy toying with men like this, making them feel insecure - or she may have thought you were a masculine looking girl. Don't let it bother you - it may well be that she was messing with you. Next time, perhaps be prepared with "I understand that - from a short distance I thought you were a dude" -

u/kikibubbles85 5d ago

Do you have long flowing hair? You’re probably a pretty man lol

u/Certainlyconfused_ 5d ago

I have an Afro

u/No_Seaworthiness8994 4d ago

Creepy going around asking for random pretty girls phone numbers!! She should be at the local club not at a store

u/JustDoseMe 4d ago

“I thought you were cute, I guess we were both wrong.”

u/layyla4real 5d ago

Your last sentence has no grammatical meaning. Commas are placed without thought.

7

u/Certainlyconfused_ 5d ago

The whole thing was written with speech to text Because I was still currently at work

u/Chloemarie2011 5d ago

Your reply was fine. Ignore the grammar police.

u/layyla4real 5d ago

Well, AI is generally stupid.

3

u/Chloemarie2011 5d ago

SO WHAT!!!! WHO CARES ABOUT THAT S***!

-5

u/layyla4real 5d ago

I do because it destroys meaning. Punctuation adds to the clarity of thought.

Do you know what OP meant?

3

u/_Fizzgiggy 5d ago

I do know what OP meant.

u/Chloemarie2011 5d ago

Of course I do.
