Gay men have hit on me in bars and tried to "pick me up."
What did I do?
Thank them for the compliment, delicately explain that I wasn't into that and bought them a drink. Like @silvermyth said, a compliment is a compliment.
I started pointing out dudes to him and he pointed out ladies to me.
We both "struck out" that night, but we still had a good time.
Thanks, but don't worry about me, I'm sure I'll be just fine. Recent events not withstanding, I've come to terms with being single and I think I'm pretty ok with it.
In evaluating my suitability for and my willingness to engage in a relationship, that answer is iffy. Sure, having a girl in my life would be nice, but I have to be honest that I'm not really entirely sure I want to.
I compare my dating again to what Arthur C. Clarke said about finding alien life beyond Earth:
"Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not. Both possibilities are equally terrifying."
