Dating : Rejected a girl and her friends got super salty
Was at the bar I normally hang out at and I was on the pong tables (doing a bit worse than normal but about average). Then this girl came up to me (mixed black and white though very light skinned) she asked if I thought her friend was cute. Her friend looked very similar to her and I said tell her this “Tell her it’s nothing personal but she’s not my type, she is kinda attractive though”. She went to her friends and just said the part about her not being my type. Then the girl came up and said she didn’t even want me (I honestly didn’t care so I was very non emotional or reactive to her saying that). Then her friend comes back up and asks if her blonde friend was cute. I said yes then the blonde came up to me and said “so apparently I’m your type” I said “yeah, that a problem 😏”(emoji for face reference) then she walked off and her friends were apparently recording it.
I think I handled it well but anyone else been in this situation?
FYI when people try to start shit in public don’t give them the time of day. Just blow them off or tell them your not interested in whatever they are trying to start.
Red flags red flags all around.
Its all a game it seems
Eh. Just be as diplomatic as possible, then ignore them OP.
The camera definitely indicates you were just part of a video they wanted to make.
Wait…so why did you mention ping-pong?
i guess they forgot that if Person A is your type and Person B is not your type, and that’s how you answer, then well , that means Person A is your type and Person B is not your type.
Nothing mysterious about that!
I’m not sure I would have entertained any part of the conversation beyond superficial. Obviously its hindsight, but it’s a weird convo from the opening question.
They might’ve had someone do this to them, before. It’s a pretty threatening situation to be in.
Regardless, if we normalize retaliating to rejection, we are basically pissing away the importance of consent, or what we’ve achieved thus far.

I believe you couldn’t have known better, given the situation, but I personally wouldn’t have engaged further with any of them after their friend in question approached me, herself, to retract her interest, because my intuition says that something is off.
For a species that dishes out a lot of rejection they sure can’t handle it themselves.
So now you are a publicly know racist. Prepare to get cancelled.
Typical women finding something else to be mad at involving men. You do you man
Tons of women can’t handle rejection cause they’ve literally never experienced it themselves and can’t imagine a guy not wanting to pounce on them at the nod of their head. It’s sad really
