Talking to guys Hey, 17/f
Basically I have a bit of a problem with talking to the opposite sex. You see, a relationship two years ago (over in 5 months) only came about because I talked to a guy, and he took it as me leading him on abit.
So now, I cant really have a conversation in class with any guy because I'm worried they'll think I fancy them. So basically in class I ignore the guys and talk to the girls. However, this cant continue as I'll be in a v.male class next year and they'll think I'm odd.
So How do you talk to guys without them thinking you fancy them?!
Thanks

Talk to them like you would talk to a girl. Not exactly exactly like that, but the same general pattern. Start up a conversation about how hard or easy the assignment was. Something simple like that. Don't overdo it either. Also try to be aware of your tone. I know that sometimes I start talking with alternating pitches and saying more cutsey stuff (which can be perceived as flirting) to a gu
And hun, don't get caught up in something that happened a while back. That might have been just him and his thinking. ]
Perhaps it's the way you are approaching them? Most people's first judgement is actions. Like the person said below try not to talk to them in a flirty tone. When you talk, be causal about it. I know where you are coming from, It seems like everyone just automatically jumps to assumptions these days. If someone tries to flirt with you, You don't have to be rude about it but just remain casual and respectful.
Unfortunately there will always be those people who will just keep trying to push limits and those are the ones that either need to be told to back off a little or ignored. :/ ]
I know what you are going through. First off, try not to talk to them in a flirty type of tone. Talk to them in a friendly manner. Second, to make them think that you are not interested in them, introduce yourself like say your name and then give them a hand shake if you please. Lastly, tell them that it was a pleasure to meet them and smile and walk away! That will help you! :)
