You're right but there's also such a thing as people who take anyone being friendly or normal as somehow hitting on them.. once this happens, a guy HAS to ignore, because the other person has already perceived a threat where there is none and continuing to open oneself up to the possibility of making them feel threatened more than once has to be wrong, right? So I'm really sorry if I've what I've said invalidates what you're saying or feeling, but if you're just a normal person and somebody took you as being a creep when you were just acting normal then it's on you to stop talking to that person altogether because you will most likely be misinterpreted again and it will reflect 100% on you.. I hear you, but, there are such a thing as situations where person A misunderstood person B and person B picked up on it and no longer says anything to person B, out of respect..
