How To Avoid Unwanted Male Romance in BG3
Salutations my fellow nerds!

Lately, I've noticed a cavalcade of topics from male players desperate to avoid the sexual advances of their male NPC party members. Luckily, I'm here to help. As a habitual "bad end" achiever in numerous dating sims, I feel my unique skill set can finally be put to use!

Bask in my wisdom by keeping these simple tips in mind.

1.) Don't reciprocate flirtation: If you're struggling to know when a male is flirting with you, just assume they are to be safe. "When in doubt, assume the **** is out."

2.) Set clear boundaries early on: If you're not sure which dialogue option to pick, look for the one with the "No" in it. Usually a safe bet.

3.) Limit voluntary interaction: If the guy just isn't getting the message, try moving your mouse off the side when you see it hovering over them. With practice, you should be able to avoid clicking on them and starting a dialogue in 70% of situations.

If you need any further advice on this topic, consult literally any woman. Try not to flirt with them in doing so.

Always happy to help!

I just kill them, they won't try again if they are in the grave.

It makes an extremely poor RPG though when all your companions are dead. Or you 'limit interactions' with them.

Do you have detailed advise on how avoid unwanted female romance?

Or we can simply let them vent their frustration over their insecurities in a video game.

It's funny & sad at the same time to read though.

Not like Larian cares and can do much about it anyway. Maybe, just maybe, they can ask sexual orientation in character creator, but then it will get a whole other bunch of people up in arms, guaranteed.

Can confirm: No men have flirted with me unless I wanted them to, thanks to OP's guide.

While outside the scope of this topic, might I recommend a genre of anime known as the "harem anime?" You will receive expert advice on your issue from its male protagonists.

It is possible to tell the vamp that he is beautiful many hrs after you told him you are not into him. No flirting at all, but I was very hesitant to choose it because I thought maybe he is going to stalk me after that.

So you can't handle someone flirting with you? Has no one ever flirted with you in real life?

Such a simple concept

the amount of shaming from other men about their fellow men being uncomfortable with same sex romance is wild. Like, why do they have to be comfortable with it? I don't understand, let people feel how they want to feel
