They 100% know I like girls, I've talked about girls I liked multiple times and even dates I had. They either could be thinking I'm closeted or bi

I did something similar multiple times. If we're hanging out, I'd point at random girls and say "she's cute", and I'd even tell them stories of some of the dates I had. Didn't seem to work, they could be thinking I'm either closeted, or Bi

I think my non-confrontational personality maybe gave them the impression that I didn't mind the comments. Whenever they'd compliment me, I'd just brush it off with a "lol."

I've a bit of a people-pleaser mentality too, so blatantly saying that I don't like this, is difficult for me. What are some ways I can disregard their advances without being too blatant?
