I've always wondered why men say "I'll call you" when really they have no intention of calling. Am I the only woman that would prefer honesty? I can't seem to pick up or give of the right signals these days....I attract men I do not want to go out with yet the ones I do like run a mile or always see me as just a friend..Don't get me wrong I am not talking about just sex because that's the easiest thing in the world to get I am talking about a proper boyfriend someone that gives a damn about you,someone who makes you feel better just by being there.Does this exist anymore or am I chasing a pipe dream? Men what do you want/look for? Women does this happen to you?

    00purple666 I do prefer honesty, but I dont think I have heard from any man "I'll call you". And the reason is, I dont give my number, I rather prefer to take.... If a guy doesnt want me to call him, he would dodge the question, and its out in the open.... And I have never got the dodging also, so I cant say.... And no I am not Ms Perfect, I am just choosy in guys.... Adious S

    when i was single, i was only ever looking for relationships, so the entire thinking is alien to me. i know, i know: i'm weird. i think that if you encounter that situation again, you might be better off replying something to the effect of "you know, it's OK if you don't actually mean that." ed

    Honesty - well yeah but still when a guy is being honest i can not take them seriously. I just can believe that is what they really are thinking. I have met and chatted to quite a few really nice open guys. That i have great respect for. This is a postive relationship. I think the second to want more is the second we get less. I do think a lot comes down to evolution. Men has to be attracted and women have to feel safe. Beyond that it is a bonus. But if you sense a guy is stringing you along then he probably is. Sorry if i seem a bit weird but i am a bit harsh on some things.

    I know guys who have been in bad relationships and are scared for whatever reason to get into another and commit, because who know's which way it will go. Also, if they're a friend already, they're always worried that if they get more serious with their friend(no matter how much they like them), they don't want to go down that route, because they're worried it'll go wrong and then they would have lost a good friend. Not just any old lover. I think guys are coming around to this kind of mentality more and more these days. Can't be all bad. ;)

    You answered your own question. You said that there are guys interested in you, but not the ones you want. Why do you not want the guys that are interested in you?

    men should [u]not[/u] say "i'll call you" if they don't mean it. saying "i enjoyed the evening" would perhaps be better.... or "thank you for this wonderful evening"... or "i had a great time, thanks!"

    [color=maroon]per experience, guys who says they will give me a call are the guys that won’t call. believe me sweetie, it’s just lip service for them. you’ll know the one who really mean it `coz he will make you feel special. for example, he’ll text you to say thanks for the wonderful time or just to say goodnight. otherwise HE IS JUST NOT REALLY INTO YOU so forget him, there are still lots of guys out there.[/color] [color=blue]aims[/color]

    [color=purple]...Thanks for all of your comments I agree with all of them. To bloc..I don't know why I keep being attracted to men that aren't interested in me but it is not going to be continued no more frogs for me.Silverwhisperer..I shall use your advice the next time I dare to go near a man.Mrhowto it's the pitfall of having male friends I suppose..it sooks though!

    Well, purple, I have to ask... Are you saying you would prefer him to say outright to you at the end of an evening "I don't want to see you again?" See, that's a hard sell for guys. We don't want to hurt your feelings, even if we've already decided we've seen enough. It's easier to say "I'll call you" because people almost expect you not to call. It's almost a cliche. In fact, I only say that when I know for sure I'm not going to call. If I'm interested enough to want to see more of you, I will make plans with you then and there, on the spot, to see you again. But then again, I've been on the receiving end of that "I'll call you" enough not to let it bother me anymore. As a nice guy, I would have a little trouble completely crushing all your hopes at the end of an evening. Who wants to be a jerk needlessly? I know you've heard it before, but the right guy is out there somewhere. Keep looking, you'll turn him up! In the meantime, Girl, live it up! Have some fun playing the field. Q

    I hate when guys say they'll call and don't. I too would prefer honesty, though I suppose many aren't as comfortable giving such honesty. It's a shame.
  • 00purple666 said on Aug 17, 2006....
    [color=purple] Maybe some women like being fed a line just to make themselves feel better,but If a guy didn't like me in that way I would rather be told I just don't see you in that way or beforehand told it is a one nighter least then you can have the choice [/color]

I was talking to a friend and she asked what is means to be in a relationship today. She had this same discussion with a male friend of hers. What he said in a nutshell was that today people get into relationships for selfish reasons. One may want a rela...
