Act geeky and insecure. And as a bonus, start over-eating and not taking care of yourself very often.

If they keep bugging you, remember these two words:

Wasn't there a similar thread in General Discussion last month? Someone who gained weight to get girls off his back?

I made up a "Top Ten" list. Maybe I can do another...

TOP TEN WAYS TO GET COLLEGE GIRLS TO STOP FOLLOWING YOU

10. Tell them you're planning to spend Spring Break importing Thai girls as "indentured dating partners" for your web business.
9. Say you volunteer for orientation so you can take advantage of trusting Freshman girls before anyone else gets to them
8. Ask them whether they like having female roommates and what color Mormon prairie dress they think they'd like.
7. Have big blow ups of you goofing with biology dissecting projects all over your room walls. Laugh as you backstory each one.
6. If a girl asks you if you want to study with her, ask her what she'll do to make it worth your time.
5. Use the word "bleeping" a lot: This "bleeping" class is "bleeping" boring.
4. If a girl asks you for your number, say "One" and then try to "high five" her. Seriously.
3. Wear mirror sunglasses and earbuds all the time. Even in your room.
2. Carry pictures of your wife, who is a Ranger on deployment in Iraq, in your wallet.
1. 3 words: "mullet", "sideburns", "neckbeard"

I'm not sure if this is a genuine post.

If it is. Just tell them that you are not currently interested in a relationship and currently want to remain single. :shrug:

I understand.

Not sure I can offer any advice, as I haven't figured out how to ward people off without hurting their feelings myself yet.

And (most of the advice so far) all that deceptive stuff, saying stuff, pretending to be someone you're not, I know this is probably (if you're aspie like i am) not very feasible. I can't lie and deceive as it feels wrong.

Maybe the only thing that sometimes works is to start off straight away by stressing the word "friend" in all the conversations. Hopefully that way you can avoid hurting their feelings by letting them know the kind of relationship you're going to have early, before they get a chance to get too attached.

Wow. That sucks. That's like the U.S. Naval Academy or something military. I was at a Navy game in Annapolis recently, and they had a lot of female cadets. Maybe not more than 1 in 4, tho.

Try the New Jersey Institute of Technology... not only is it an engineering school (something that repels women), but it's a campus that is in the middle of a city, whereas most people want some campus in the middle of bloody nowhere... I personally chose my school because I can commute to it (thereby eliminating room and board from the expenses)...

Please don't take this the wrong way, but are you sure they're interested in you romantically? They might just find you easy to chat to and want to be friends.

Are you on facebook or a social site? Change your status to 'in a relationship' and in conversations, casually drop the words 'my girlfriend' into it... it might not make them leave you alone entirely, but it explains why you can't flirt back with them or ask them out.

That could backfire though... women seem to like taken men for whatever reason...

^Yeah women are terrible at that.
