As I've stated before, I've, over the last year and a half, added about thirty pounds and have been very strict to a lifting regimen at my gym. I've gotten some unique responses from people. During Bear Pride, for example, I remember dancing with my shirt off and having two of my friends staring blankly at me, confused as to when I got something

You've changed in five years. They may have as well. Give them the benefit of the doubt. You have keen enough people-sense to tell pretty quick if they're still a douchebag or not, so you're not going to lose much by giving them a chance. Don't hold grudges. It's an ugly personal road to go down, and being beholden to feelings that are years and years old doesn't allow for or respect your own personal growth.

Just my two cents.

Hiiiii!

Well, I have had a similar situation since I have lost some weight. I just told the guy, I I remember you, you worked here didn't you? And he was all yeah, I did. So I asked if he remembered me, he said he didn't. And I just left it at that. No need to embarrass the guy. But then, I have a tendency to be a nice guy :p

This has happened to me more times than I can recall. First off, you can't blame someone for what they find attractive. I did that at first and it was hypocritical because I would do the same thing with others. Second, if he politely declined your advances then he did nothing wrong. If you're still attracted to him then go for it. If he wasn't very kind, then you have to ask yourself if you could look past it or not.
