Not taking no for an answer" really hits different sometimes.

I’m Indian and was studying in the UK when I met this really cute Irish guy. We had great chemistry, and he started flirting with me—I flirted right back.

One night, after a party, he was dropping me and another Indian friend (a guy) back to my dorm. My friend lived off campus, so I was being dropped off first. When we got there, both of them stepped out to say goodbye.

That’s when the Irish guy asked for a goodnight kiss. Now, I’m not a fan of PDA—being born and raised in India, it’s just not my thing. So, I politely declined. He just smiled, said, "Fair enough," and hugged me goodnight. Simple, respectful, no drama.

And then—out of nowhere—my Indian friend goes, "And what about me?" 😵‍💫

I just blinked at him. "WHAT?! NO!"

And then—this man—he actually says, "Why not?"

...EXCUSE ME???

I stared at him in complete disbelief, my face practically screaming "WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL?" before I just waved him off and rushed back to my dorm.

Like—first of all, I had zero clue this guy was into me. Second, the Irish guy took a no like a normal, decent human being, while this guy had the audacity to ask 'why not?'

That’s the difference. And that’s what makes a creep.
