But the guys ALWAYS end up confessing their feeling for me sooner or later.HOW DO I STOP THIS?! Tell me men, how do I turn you off forever!!! without gaining 100lb, sacrificing my looks, getting really hairy, being unfriendly? Reply to this Question

You are in a field which is overwhelmingly dominated by men. When one finds a woman in which there is a common ground, naturally one thing follows another.
I now own a business in a woman dominated field. I get the same thing all the time. I just say thank you and take it as flattering.
Its no big deal, stop making a problem where there is none.

It's a sobering piece of information to learn that one more woman is joining the fields of science and math. There needs to be more of them.

Your only option is to get a t-shirt made that says your feelings on it. Wear it a few times and guys will get the hint.
Realistically you'll probably just have to get used to telling anyone that you're not interested in dating right now.
That's what you get for going to engineering school!

 Its maturity. The men u r encountering dont understand women n dating. They kill suspense with acknowledging feelings they dont kno how to build up a chase n bottom line dont kno how to communicate with women.

 Women like you are scarce and you are very valuable to them. Guys can't turn off their feelings just to talk about Linux and Firefly with you. Maybe look for a gay guy. There has to be one amongst them. Or just pick the best guy and become his girlfriend. Friendship with men is difficult, they will always keep trying. You can try turning people off by being mean or saying you have a boyfriend, but then the guys won't have any interest being your friend if they know there's no hope beyond friendship.
