So today I decided to start talking to random people, as seen by the other thread. There was a self help seminar, so I went in and sat around with everyone. There was only three other people there, and one was a chick in my age group.
I was nervous as hell, but she talked to me every so often, and I like to think she was looking at me at once point. Not sure.
Anyway, I said something funny, and she laughed. Things were going good.
Suddenly this other guy said "what the fuck, you liar" even though I wasn't lying, I was
joking!
Jokes are basically implied lies. He said it, and the room went quiet, and my face went red. I could feel it. I didn't say anything, and then the seminar continued and eventually I left.
FUCK!
Oh I should point out I didn't even want to score with her because women are gross no homo, but I did want to make some friends at least. Now everybody there probably thinks I'm a liar.
ITT: Talk about times you were cock blocked, or cock blocking in general.

Definitely don't have the courage to do that just yet. But yeah, this uhh talking to people thing is breaking me out of my shell.
Thaaaaaaaaat :mad::mad::mad:
Okay I'm not really mad but reading that frustrates me a lot. I want to take a time machine back to that moment in your body
lol Damn
I don't usually advise the violent route but describing how you'd fuck his shit up is still better than saying nothing
This is even funnier when you read it in the voice of the host of unsolved mysteries, lol.
This is true. Guys like that often follow one of two patterns. Some start shit expecting people to stay quiet so they can look cool. They will back down if you don't stand for it. The other kind start shit to look cool and will continue their bullshit if you challenge them, because they either want attention, just like being a douchebag or think they know everything and are, therefore, deluded.
Both are easy enough to defeat. The best thing to do is to stand up for yourself, but not to be extreme about it. If you stand up for yourself, a lot of times people like that will back down. If they do, you win as long as you don't act like a bigger douche than him. If they don't back down, then you need to basically take a step back, act very calm and be the reasonable person. Say something like "whoa dude you need to chill out" "relax, it was a joke, you know? Humor?" That way the pressure is on the other guy for acting like a douche and people will side with you, making him the idiot in front of everyone.
What everyone else is saying is true though. A simple, "Chill out, bud, it's a joke," would have worked just fine. The girl would have liked watching you stand up for yourself and later on if you were to end up hanging out with her outside of the seminar you would be able to have a laugh about the douche with no sense of humor.
You should've reacted this way...
"Apparently you do not know the definition of humor you rude shitbag (<insert racial/biting remark). You will adress me as sir, and if you treat me with disrespect again... It will be the last thing you do." Say that quickly, then go right back to flirting with the girl. If he wants to fight about it, kill him.
