8 Tips to Spot the Difference Between Flirting and Harassment
5. Unwelcome intrusion
Is a guy intruding in your personal space and your private time? Do you sometimes feel that you are being constantly watched or followed? Pay heed to that little voice in your head that tells you that something is not right. When a person makes you feel that you are losing your privacy, you need to know that he is a harasser.
6. Does saying “no” work?
If you are unsure of a man’s motives, try saying “No” to him if his actions make you feel uncomfortable. If he is a gentleman, he will stop and feel apologetic. However, if he intends to do you wrong, he will try to make some excuse or the other to justify his behavior. Remember that you do not deserve to be with a guy who does not respect you.
7. What do you guys talk about?
You can easily judge someone’s intentions with the kind of topics that he brings up. If you feel that any discussion you start with him more often than not turns to something sexual, then try to keep distance from the guy.
8. Trust your instinct
Women have a very sharp sense of judging a man’s intentions. You may know a guys motives simply by the way he looks at you or the kind of tone he uses when he talks to you. Do not take these hints lightly. Trust your gut feeling and the moment you feel that the other person does not have good intentions, try to exit the situation as soon as possible.
