"Most Creative Turn Down Ever" Nominees

[Honey123]

He: "I'm starting a new chapter in my life"
Me:

I think that says it all ...

 

[rgraham666]

Me: Would you like to go out for dinner?
She: (Turns and odd shade of green and retches)
Me: I guess not.

 

[yui]

Not exactly creative, but painful enough.

Me: But I love you.
He: I don't think it's love.

Bastard.

Thanks.

I've not had creative rejections...nope they've been wither the tried and true "ignore her and she'll eventually go away" tack or the "I don't see you that way" phrase that is just like ouch,just tell me i'm ugly and only useful for helping you with your homework then.

*sigh*

though thankfully I'm now married and don't deal with real life rejection...well not so much now anyways *LOL*

[Just-Legal]

Me: You really don't want to sleep with me
Him: Why?
Me: Because I have an incurable disease
Him: [looking worried] What, AIDS?
Me: No, marriage

(Okay, half lie, I'm engaged, but hey, the look on his face was classic)

I'll bet there are at least three looks:

"WTF?"
"Ohmigawd!"
and "Bitch."


Very good, thanks for that one.

Hi Softouch,

No, I just wept like a girl. It's okay, I recovered and have had ample opportunity to turn him down since. My favorite way to turn him down is, "It would be wonderful, but I just don't want to mess with the dynamics of our current relationship. Night!"

I'm a wee bit evil.

Luck,

Yui

 

[Dar~]

Someone turned Yui down???? No way!

 

[cantdog]

I got some hideous, categorical turndowns, man. I was two years younger than the kids I was in class with. I followed my friends' and my Dad's advice: just keep asking, you're bound to strike lucky. The worst they can say is no.

Yeah. "Get away before I puke." That's a little stronger than "no." There were many such, but none of the expressions of utter revulsion could be called creative.

Eventually I figured out I needed to ask the sixth graders, not the eighth graders. Much better.

 

[scheherazade_79]

My most memorable one was from a guy. For those of you who don't know me, I didn't realise my sexual orientation until I was around 19 I thought I just didn't have any interest in sex. Anyway, to cut a long story short, we'd been dating about 6 months before he went away to Oxford to study music. He kind of changed when he got there - like he was embarrassed by me - which is rich considering that he was cheating on me with a gypo at the time.

Anyway, he finished things by writing a song about me and recording it. It was called "Sleep Like the Witch that You Are" and took numerous digs at my accent, my sleep talking, my cigar-smoking phase, my roots, my appearance and just about anything else he could come up with.

He performed the song with the gypo (sorry if this sounds politically incorrect, but I met her and she really was the bitch from hell) and it sounded really really terrible. They had grand plans of making it big in the pop industry, but 9 years on he's still making a living by giving piano lessons to little kids Does that count as schadenfreude?

 

[CrazyyAngel]

Does that count as schadenfreude?

Yes it does actually ... but who could blame you .

As for the topic. I never was in the position to turn girl down (as I would be that dumb ), but boy did I got turned down a lot in my life. But nothing creative tho ... mostly the classics "I got a boyfriend", "You're a nice guy, but just not my type" (actually if I here this one more time I will puke) ...

Very, very malicious. And funny.

Yeah, I guess that counts as creativity ... wasted creativity, to me. What a shame ... that must have been pretty stunning to hear, since it sounds like you actually sat through it.


Yes, it counts.

Maybe we should be compiling a list of "Please, Lover, if you want to turn me down, don't let me hear this shit ...."

There are a whole bunch of cliche's that are more aggravating than they are feeling-savers.

Me: "Would you like to go to lunch?"
She: "My husband wouldn't like it."

What? I'm supposed to think she doesn't eat? I wasn't asking her to have a baby, just a goddam salad.


REal aggravating.



Softouch -- pissed

 

[rikaaim]

I may be the wrong gender here, but can I add one:

I got the good 'ol my boyfriend lives in Florida. This is when we both live in Ohio.

That was immediately followed by the same person telling me that they liked another person who lived in the same area that we did.

C'est la vie.

It's for the best really since I then had the opportunity to meet my most wonderful wife who loves me with all of her being.

I love her twice as much today as yesterday, but not as much as tomarrow.

When the words fail to be spoken
When my heart feels broken
she is there, loving me.

When I leave her in doubt
and seem to have run out
she is there, loving me.

When I know I am wrong
and she knew all along
she is there, loving me.

I love her deeply with all that I am.
I love her as much as anyone can.

When our eyes meet and lock,
and for a moment my breath stops,
I look at her face,
like a priceless ming vase,
and I feel complete peace,
I know I'm in love.



Sorry for the little threadjack. Romance and love tends to spill out sometimes from me.

 

[RealTimeFun]

Worst ever? Ok, here you go.

Picture the scene. In a club packed full of people. At the bar......

Her: Excuse me can I get in here? (referring to getting up to the bar)
Me: (glance at her) Haahaahaahaahaa


Wait...Stop...Reverse that..

Me: Excuse me can I get in here? (referring to getting up to the bar)
Her: (glance at her) Haahaahaahaahaa

What humor we find in our lives.

 

[Softouch911]

I like romance, but I'm not sure there's a wrong gender for this one.

Unless I've missed a gender or two.

that would sure explain a lot, wouldn't it?




Softouch -- checking organz

Yeah, that was sort of why I thought some of us could use the thread, y'know?





Softouch -- ROFLMAO

I did a double reading on that one as well...


No matter the gender, the outcome is still the same. But, any type of rejection makes you take a good look at yourself, doesn't it? I mean, it helps you to improve on yourself.

 

[rikaaim]

But, any type of rejection makes you take a good look at yourself, doesn't it? I mean, it helps you to improve on yourself.

Sure, after the paranoia. Wondering what you did wrong. Wondering...

Maybe that's just me. I'm sure it is.

Serisouly, any rejection hurts no matter what the situation is because you cared and dared to put yourself out there and expose yourself. You are right Honey, the best thing that can happen is to take a look at yourself and try to become a better person, a better you.

Sometimes that's hard though.
