If the job offer would help my minority group, and I got paid for it, yeah, I think I would take it. Why would you feel offended if it were something that would be a positive in both directions?

Chances are that he is just joking with you. Because you never said that him saying that you were stupid offended you, he thinks it is okay to say it. If in fact you do get offended by him saying this then you need to tell him or in the long run you will feel animosity for him repeatably saying it. Just be up front but not overly dramatic about it. The next time he says it just be like,''Hey, stop saying that it hurts my feelings, babe.'' If you say it in a cute way it will make him melt. On the other hand, when you say these things to him maybe he doesn't want you to tell you that it really hurts his feelings because he doesn't know how you will react. All together I would just stop saying those things to him. If it doesn't bother either of you then that's fine too. GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Well if you feel you must.A proper response would be \nnothing more hurtful than whatyourself received, as\nwe dont need to escalate it to anything physical.\nRestraint is a more powerful response.

Why would you feel offended? Did he urinate right in front of you? Otherwise the man had to pee so he asked you to watch for a bite on his line. I am confused about why that is offensive.

I would probably tell her after that i dont like her but thanks anyway. But i wouldnt be offended because a kiss isnt a big deal.

It depends on the person but as a rule of thumb it's never a good idea. Most people would feel disrespected or insecure by such a comment. I know I would.

I would genuinely apologize for saying something that offended him and assure him that it won't happen again ---- and then let the ball be in his court. Also, you might mention that his actions in that situation won't be tolerated either. Just watch out for this guy -- he seems kind of like a loose cannon. And definitely one of those people that can "dish it, but not take it" --- just apologize and see what happens. Good Luck!

I would've done the same thing you did, and those ladies probably didn't mind- or shouldn't have- because they most likely saw how bad you felt, because when you are sick or something is wrong, people can usually tell...  And you know that under normal circumstances you would've acted differently, and there are always exceptions to the rules!  Soooo...my answer is no you shouldn't, and no I wouldn't! ;)

You were in the pub, as you said. Doesn't matter what you were saying, somebody's bound to get offended by it sooner or later. He went over there just for that reason. To butt into the conversation and start something with you. It had nothing to do with the subject of the conversation. Trust me.

I would just  say, would you excuse me? And then turn around and walk off. I don't think this is rude....better than saying, Im not interested and hurting his feelings.

Listen, don't be offended by any remarks on this forum, as people tend to be very sensitive about various topics which include religion and race.\n\nIt's very good of you to apologize and clarify.  I am sure those that were offended probably didn't understand what you were asking and made an assumption.  It happens a lot on this forum.

No, it wouldn't offend me.  I'd listen to what they said & then I'd hold up my own mirror to check myself.  If I agreed with what they said, then I'd work at changing myself.  If not, then I'd move on because everyone is allowed to have their own opinions.
