Barnacle ('stalk-er) male 1: has amazing ability to glom onto females 2: pays so much attention to one particular girl that other guys think she's taken, causing girl to get desperate and issue a restraining order 3: in times of famine or miracle, aforementioned girl might go for said Barnacle. -Stephanie Fowers, Meet your Match.
Ahh! The Barnacle. The bane of the young, single female's existence! And yet, they have been permeating society from the beginning of dating! We can't get rid of them! Much like the underside of an oil tanker, they latch onto hapless young women with a vengeance, creating innumerable difficulties for poor, innocent, defenseless girls. There's no way to fight these guys off because they somehow just don't get it! "Hints" mean nothing to them. You can outright tell these guys you have no interest whatsoever in them, but do they back off? Of course not! And because they're so attentive, other normal guys somehow get in their minds that the feeling is mutual, thus backing off altogether. And where does this leave us? Desperate! And as a result, we are sentenced to either being alone, or trying to convince ourselves that well...maybe he's not that bad...
