Ever avoid someone you hooked up with?

[hackingnomberr]

I'm not talking about an ex, I'm talking about a one night stand kind of thing. I totally saw the guy I hooked up with today in the library and would purposely go out of my way to avoid him to skip any chance of awkward hello's or conversation.

If you read my previous threads I pretty much made a fool of myself, so I kinda don't want to be looked at like that haha. And I think he's a little out of my league which may double the awkwardness.

Anyway, do you guys ever avoid your one night stands? Obviously a bunch of people avoid their exes, but what about these situations?

How do you get over that awkwardness anyway, like I'm not gonna talk to him and try to clear my name because I think that adds to the ridiculousness, but we go to the same school I can't avoid him forever.

Of course.

During the hook up we go through the motions, maybe even "pretend" to enjoy ourselves all the while wanting to move on.

No problem ignoring the guy later..

Whether or not I avoid kind of depends on where I am... if I'm out at the bar and I see someone in passing, I say Hi. Sometimes, he says hi, sometimes he doesn't..... I mean, you do know them.... and you know them biblically haha. The way I figure, say hi, and keep moving... if a friend were to ask who it was, you can easily blow it off as "oh an old coworker" or "this buddy of mine's friend" blah blah blah.

Shopping at the grocery store? AWKWARD! Then, I avoid avoid avoid....

Hmmm nope. I usually just give a quick nod hello as we pass. No need to engage in conversation with them, but I don't see a reason to not even acknowledge their existence.

I see them like all the time. Tricks from years ago who suddenly appear into my social circles and I'm forced to interact with them. Then I'll go to a party and see a boy. At the bar everytime I go. It's unavoidable. Do I avoid them? Most of the time. But sometimes there's no choice.

I dated my next-door neighbor once and was probably the biggest mistake of my romantic life I have ever made. Unless one of you plans on moving away in the very near future, it is just bad. I see this guy about once a week throughout my building and he still gives me dirty looks and then he tries to "one-up" me by showing off his tricks (which I don't care at all but he thinks I do). He will knock on my door at like 1am saying: "Oh look, I just had sex with these two guys. Top that!"

For bolded purposes:

Never date/sleep with a neighbor!!!

Do what you need to do to end the awkwardness being around him. If you think you made a fool of yourself you need to find a way to forgive yourself and move on. You're entitled to the same amount of space as he is.

I'm not that cruel. If a one night stand wants to say hi then I'm totally cool with it. I must say, however, I do tend to avoid the ones online who were not really my type, as I wouldn't want to lead them on re: another ONS.

I think I can handle the just hi thing, though I'd like it if he actually would stop and talk to me, I won't be offended if he doesn't though, I'll just know not to give in to my dick next time, I can't handle the one time thing, I'm too early in my gay career for that. ;P

Exactly and this might sound ironic but, don't take that type of treatment too personally. It's just how they roll. Think of it like meeting a prostitute: they go through thousands of tricks, therefore, they must distance themselves emotionally from the bonding process. I hope I never reach that point.

Like a plague! That's what happened when getting drunk out of my mind at a bar.

I find it funny to not avoid them and if they come up to me I pretend that I don't even know them... I know its cruel, but oh well.
